This gives an age of 44 billion to the age of the universe. Mitch Raemsch; Gravity Energizes Light Moving with it It is true a that a large red shift has been observed in the farthest away galaxy sized objects. But what exactly does this mean? One possible explanation is that the Universe is flying away from itself at high relavistic velocities. But there is no observed mechanism to drive it at those speeds and certainly no observed collisions with other objects while traveling at these high velocities. Again what has been observed in telescopes through spectroscopic instruments is a very large red shift in these very dim and considered very far away objects (galaxies or galaxy sized objects). It is certainly a theory, and in time it may be proven true. But there are many problems with it. Some of these problems have given rise to such outlandish proposals as variable gravity and membrane theory. Normally in science if you make an observation that is spurious it is rejected. But what has happened here is that outlandish observations using spectroscopic equipment using the biggest telescopes has been confirmed over and over again. It is being interpreted by astronomers and astrophyscists the best way they can. Give them some time to sort out their science.

If I were prone to make the jumps in statements you do as truth then I would be guilty of confusing truth with wild speculation. I will give you an example of a favorite speculation of mine that is quite beyond science fiction. I propose a daydream if you will. Please consider it only as a silly daydream of a bored woman staring out the window in the middle of the afternoon. This speculation of mine suggests what if the distances are actually far smaller than the instruments "measure". When the universe expanded in early time it also expanded away from the original center where today there is nothing, not even time and space. But light can only propogate through time-space, so it cant leave the universe in a straight line as it appears to travel to us because we can never see it from the outside of the universe. If the multidimensional theory of the early universe is correct then time-space expands outward along with matter and energy. But today then the universe would not resemble a sphere. What if it resembles a smaller sphere with a hollow center? So the light from distant galaxies curve around over very long distances back from where it came. That might mean that the oldest light circulates through this smaller universe in iterations according to the properties our universe actually has. In this speculation we might see the milky way galaxy as it looked one iteration ago (the actual time light took to complete one revolution around the universe) But we might also see the milky way galaxy as it appeared two iterations ago in another part of the sky. We could never know it was the Milky Way. (Maybe. Maybe not.) What effect would these distortions of light suffer as they moved around our universe how many times since the Big Bang? 2? 5? 10? More? What would we see in any direction no matter where pointed our telescopes? Galaxies in all directions. Even appearing to come from a part of the sky we could never know was originally the point of the big bang because light can only travel in a straight line through Time-Space and there at the center it would be horribly distorted. How distorted? Enough to create the illusion of galaxies accelerating when they are already "travelling" near the speed of light ? As ludicrous as this science fiction of mine sounds, it still sounds more logical than variable gravity or membrane theory or multiples of dimensions to explain how the galaxies actually do accelerate while already travelling at the speed of light. And those things are published in real magazines by people who get paid to look. Thats why a theory has to have observation, then a prediction of future events based on a premise, then a test to verify what actually happened and last, repeatabilty. Others also do the experiment and see the same results and publish about it. That is what is required to have a widely accepted theory. Otherwise all you have is science fiction. Dr. Mary J. Ruwart |

Ruwart You have an expanding hypersphere with the universe on its surface. The hypersphere surface is growing at an exponential rate because the universe is growing at an accelerating rate of expansion. Mitch Raemsch |

Ruwart ==================== Space traveling species would find it very hard to stop laughing at our physicists. They could only shake their heads at the rest of us confined to this prison rock in serfdom to such dark age stupidity spouted by a dark age bound state. A once frontier species that finally [goes] nowhere at all develops a seriously impaired view of the Universe at large as its power of mind steadily implodes and shrinks. GLB |

Oh yes! Some of these problems have given rise to such outlandish proposals as variable gravity and membrane theory. As well as aging light and a host of other ideas. Normally in science if you make an observation that is spurious it is rejected. However acceptance is often based on very unscientific reasons, including the place an individual has in the scientific community (as was true in this particular instance.) But what has happened here is that outlandish observations using spectroscopic equipment using the biggest telescopes has been confirmed over and over again. It is being interpreted by astronomers and astrophyscists the best way they can. Give them some time to sort out their science. Time? How long did it take, from first observation, to resolve geocentricity? Some questions can probably never be satisfactorally answered We do not know what is happening on the edge of the universe to produce these "accelerating galaxies". The tremendous distances appear to be correct but there may be another explanation eventually discovered. That models appear to work for the duration is what keeps us going. If I were prone to make the jumps in statements you do ("Mitch") as truth then I would be guilty of confusing truth with wild speculation.

There is probably no way for humans to test the truth of such a theory, let alone possible variations within arm's length of many theories. As ludicrous as this science fiction of mine sounds, it still sounds more logical than variable gravity or membrane theory or multiples of dimensions to explain how the galaxies actually do accelerate while already travelling at the speed of light. And those things are published in real magazines by people who get paid to look. In real tests (not the just the human created paper ones) there are more questions than there is time available to answer them. My universe began when I was born and will end when I die. In someone else's universe some answers will doubtless be discovered, though it is doubtful that all the questions (which themselves manifest at an ever greater rate) will ever be answered. Might it be said that knowledge has become a lifeform? Thats why a theory has to have observation, then a prediction of future events based on a premise, then a test to verify what actually happened and last, repeatabilty. Others also do the experiment and see the same results and publish about it. That is what is required to have a widely accepted theory. Otherwise all you have is science fiction. Which is what "Mitch" promotes and which he calls "doing science." |

Dear Sanforized:

The idea itself has within it the possible seeds of its own destruction. We correlate actual distance to the redshift. We also correlate distance to intensity, changes in duration of "characteristic" distant events, even evaluating distant processes. They are all in agreement. But what exactly does this mean? Yes, a bit more clearly, that is the question, "what does the redshift mean?" A host of different (non-exclusive) flavors, including "expansion". David A. Smith |
