38 Outlook There still seems to be a tension between CMB and LSS data This is dependent of the data sets used CFHTLenS drives the tension. Update coming using lensing constraints from DES, KiDS, HSC, etc. Values of m ν or meff sterile and N eff from Planck with all LSS does not agree with using only Planck Different extension could be used, e.g. modifications to the dark sector of the universe
