'We Do Not Seem To Have The Correct Theory Of Gravity' Says Professor

I’m always thrilled to learn of situations – such as this one – where astrophysicists are forced to realize that they don’t already know Everything.
Bonus points when said astrophysicist is Neil deGrasse Tyson (Nothing personal, Neil.).
Don’t Forget, Boys and Grrls: A ‘Theory’ is “a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena”. (Merriam-Webster)
In a word: “D’oh!”.
