From
time to time even New Scientist presents what is supposed to be an anti-Big
Bang article. The most recent is one with this title and subtitle:
“The four puzzles that tell us
a cosmological revolution is coming"
"A
century ago, we missed the loose threads that told us our picture of the
universe would unravel. Let’s not be so complacent now, says cosmologist Dan
Hooper”
This
is the usual compilation of all the silly interpretations that make the Big
Bang Theory as fragile as an egg from a malnourished hen on the edge of a precipice. And also, as usual, Hooper comes up with no resolution of
the mess. The obvious assumption that the universe is infinite totally escapes
him. He even repeats the old fake news that “Hubble discovered the universe was
expanding:”
“In
1929, Edwin Hubble observed that the universe is in fact changing. Every galaxy
is receding from us: every two points in space are getting farther apart from
each other as time advances. The universe is expanding.”
Except
for the misstep in the title of his initial paper, Hubble continued to deny he discovered
any such thing. He always thought, correctly, that light from distant galaxies
simply lost energy over distance, resulting in the cosmological redshift. Hooper ought to read the literature.
I don’t
recommend your reading this piece unless you need a refresher on the current
cosmogonical propaganda.
