Abstract：The "universe" we observe is actually a flat rotating cluster of galaxy clusters within it. Under the framework of the modified gravity theory, the universal gravitational constant G decreases as the universe expands. Under the effect of inertial centrifugal force, the radius of this observed rotating "universe" (galaxy cluster) increases at an accelerated rate. The so-called accelerated expansion of the "universe" is not driven by dark energy; dark energy does not exist.
