minus-squareFooBarrington@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 day agoNo, the general consensus is that it seems to be infinite and has no relative center point.

I assume this center of rotation is no more of a “pure center of the universe” than our sun is. I’d imagine its just a local maximum for gravity.
