What makes MOND particularly intriguing is that it predicted many effects that could not even be tested when I formulated it. Mordehai Milgrom

MOND works far too well! In fact, just as planetary systems are Keplerian objects, galaxies are Milgromian objects. Milgrom's discovery of a0 is likely as epochal as Planck's discovery of h. Pavel Kroupa

For me MOND is just as nonstandard as ΛCDM. Pavel Kroupa

I came to the subject a True Believer in dark matter, but it was MOND that nailed the predictions for the LSB galaxies that I was studying (McGaugh & de Blok, 1998), not any flavor of dark matter. So what I am supposed to conclude? Stacy McGaugh

I have experienced time and again people dismissing the data because they think MOND is wrong, so I am very consciously drawing a red line between the theory and the data. Stacy McGaugh

Sto mond l'è pien d ingrat e sconoscent. Milanese Proverb
