Mathelirium(@mathelirium):Einstein Once Attempted to Build a Static Universe But It Could Not Stay Still Einstein once modified his own field equations because he believed the universe should remain perfectly static forever. The extra term he introduced, the cosmological constant Λ, balanced gravity against cosmic expansion. However, even this balance was unstable, and later observations of distant galaxies showed the universe was expanding, not holding still.
