Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor Astrometry and the Current Tension in H_0
I review the contributions that Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor astrometry has made to the ongoing tension between H_0 derived from Cepheids and Supernovae, and H_0 derived from cosmic microwave background measures. Those values of H_0 currently differ by 3.4-sigma. New physics, or insidious systematic error, or, meh, it’s only 3.4-sigma?
