He said that it involves:<br /><br />Lots of mumbo-jumbo:<br /><br />"While special relativity constrains objects in the universe from moving faster than the speed of light with respect to each other, there is no such theoretical constraint when space itself is expanding. It is thus possible for two very distant objects to be expanding away from each other at a speed greater than the speed of light."<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_expansion_of_space<br /><br />This expansion of "space" in the early epoch of the Big Bang is at least 10^78 times the speed of light. They also sell snake oil in the corner. ;o)<br /><br />BillGlenn Borchardthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394474754821945146noreply@blogger.com
