Einstein biggest mistake, the cosmological constant

Einstein biggest mistake, the cosmological constant

Einstein considered this to be his greatest mistake in life. Initially, when Einstein formulated his theory of general relativity, his equations hinted at an expanding universe, a concept unknown to astronomers at that time. Einstein, however, held the belief that the universe was static and introduced the cosmological constant to counteract the gravitational pull and maintain a steady cosmos. This addition, intended to keep the universe unchanging, was later deemed unnecessary when Edwin Hubble's groundbreaking discovery revealed the universe's expansion. Einstein humbly acknowledged this as his "biggest blunder." Yet, in contemporary astrophysics, the cosmological constant has seen a resurgence in significance. Scientists have revived its role to elucidate dark energy, a mysterious force thought to be driving the universe's accelerated expansion. This narrative showcases the dynamic nature of scientific understanding, where past misconceptions can pave the way for new revelations and deeper insights into the cosmos.

What Einstein could do only with his mind by his Theories about the universe were outstanding and way ahead of his time. Its like he could interact with the universe, its atoms and all those what made it. The scientific community knew he was/is right by firstly the logic itself, and behavior of the universe. But cracking the codes which is to prove his theories were too difficult as the technologies weren't even invented even in our modern time.This have had scientists dedicating their life to it, not resting and sleeping properly with the questions of where and how to begin and so many more questions popping up more than the answers being received. I am just baffle with the intelligence of Einstein, his was not a normal one, it was way more deeper to what we understand by the phrase " what is intelligence "?? He got a customize definition as well for his IQ.
Just like Nikola Tesla, these 2 genius that walked this planet must be a topic in science of how it was possible to happen in the first

expanding universe is time dialation.
plus we might be locked in an oscillation. we haven't monitered long enough.. !

A fact:-:

Hubble space telescope didn't actually saw galaxies going far away its we misunderstood that actually with earth and solar system is circulating in galaxy

Second thought Einstein is not wrong about on visible universe cosmic constant, its just didn't applied on microscopic level and definitely not on sub-atomic level

And then someone says "I believe in science" when science itself change with new discovery
