     One report I recently read is about the observed discrepancy   
     between local measurements (using supernovae) of the   
     Hubble constant (a value describing the expansion) and global   
     measurements (using the cosmic microwave background).   
      
     It says that discrepancy could be explained by a rotating   
     universe that would rotate just not fast enough to contain   
     closed time-like loops (0.002 rotations per billion years).
