Abstract: This paper presents a mechanical resolution to the 7-sigma "Hubble Tension" by modeling the vacuum as a physical Superfluid Manifold subject to thermodynamic phase-transitions. Utilizing empirical refractive residuals derived from deep-space telemetry (Voyager 1), we introduce the Schoenfelder Anisotropy Gradient (H). We demonstrate that the discrepancy between CMB and local distance ladder measurements is a variable state-function of manifold viscosity—a phenomenon we term the "Great Thaw. " Furthermore, we identify the Boötes Void as a physical Baryonic Sump, providing a verifiable prediction for the sequestration of Buckminsterfullerene (C₆₀) within the 8. 5, 17. 4, and 18. 9-micron infrared bands. This work bridges the gap between localized planetary hydrodynamics and global cosmic expansion, rendering "Dark Energy" a mathematical artifact of an incomplete vacuum model.
