They have asked me to ask Modest, can you explain the above, sounds great, but! what does it mean, how does it explain the workings of the parts within the universe?
Your friends are welcome to join.

CC and I are discussing the concordance model which also goes by the name Lambda-CDM or ΛCDM. You/they can read about it here:
Lambda-CDM model - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The concordance model is a model of the universe. It explains (with specific answers) why a galaxy at some certain distance will have a given brightness, redshift, angular size, etc. It's a model of the universe's past and future based on the physics of General Relativity.

What specific workings or parts of the universe are you/they considering?
