Modified Newtonian dynamics
A study claimed that the universe's earliest galaxies formed and grew too rapidly to be explained by the Lambda-CDM model, but such rapid growth was predicted by MOND theory.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
A research study concluded that cold dark matter cannot adequately explain galactic rotation curves, while MOND provides a more comprehensive explanation.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
A study measured the acceleration of 26,615 wide binaries within 200 parsecs, demonstrating systematic deviations from Newtonian dynamics and conformity with MOND (AQUAL) predictions. The results remain disputed among researchers.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
A survey of dwarf galaxies from the Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) catalogue was published, with astronomers and physicists concluding that observed deformations of dwarf galaxies in the Fornax Cluster and the lack of low surface brightness dwarfs towards its centre are incompatible with ΛCDM expectations but consistent with MOND theory.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
Kroupa et al. published a study of open star clusters, arguing that asymmetry in tidal tails and cluster lifetimes are inconsistent with Newtonian dynamics but consistent with MOND theory.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
Unnamed researchers proposed a new relativistic model of MOND that is compatible with cosmic microwave background observations.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
A group of astronomers analyzed data from the Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves (SPARC) sample and galaxy catalogs, finding statistically significant evidence of violations of the strong equivalence principle in weak gravitational fields near rotationally supported galaxies. Their findings were consistent with Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and inconsistent with the Lambda-CDM cosmological model.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
Launch of the LISA Pathfinder mission, which was proposed as a potential experimental platform for testing Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) theories, particularly to detect anomalous tidal stresses and potential gravitational corrections in the Solar System.

Modified Newtonian dynamics
QUMOND (quasi-linear formulation of MOND) is first formulated, becoming the dominant MOND field theory due to its computational friendliness and intuitiveness for numerical simulations.
