New IFT video: Does the universe rotate as a whole?

Planets, stars, galaxies... it seems like everything is spinning in the universe. But does the universe as a "whole" spin?

In this video, we will learn basic concepts of physics, such as angular momentum, and of cosmology, such as the cosmological principle of the homogeneity and isotropy of the universe, in order to try to conclude if the universe rotates as a "whole," despite everything else spinning... Romina Ballesteros, predoctoral researcher at the IFT, explains it.
