That's true, but most recent progress has reinforced mainstream theories that have been around for decades like relativity and quantum mechanics, e.g. LIGO's detection of gravitational waves. Many recent advancements have been in the technology needed to detect and measure phenomena predicted by those theories.
Hopefully there will be major new discoveries about the early universe when the Webb telescope is deployed in 2021...
