Misc

Scientists can't explains what they call the lithium deficit. I think the deficit is in their theories.
"Most of the light chemical element lithium now present in the Universe was produced during the Big Bang, along with hydrogen and helium, but in much smaller quantities. Astronomers can calculate quite accurately how much lithium they expect to find in the early Universe, and from this work out how much they should see in old stars. But the numbers don’t match — there is about three times less lithium in stars than expected. This mystery remains unsolved, despite several decades of work."
It remains unresolved because they haven't changed their theory to match observation.
