William sent in a link to another MSN video. This one concerns a galaxy just 280 million miles after Big Bang occurred. An exraordinary finding as astronomers were expecting the James Webb space telescope to show a fairly empty early universe slowly building its first galaxies.
It seems the James Webb space telescope has found a collection of bright galaxies in a crowded early universe, and various other space structures and black boles that seem to have grown too fast for theory -the accepted mainstream construct. It would seem, on reflection, there is something basically out of kilter with red shift. Halton Arp, of course, famously disputed that red shift correctly aligned galaxies by distance – and he was forced to resign from American astronomical facilities, ending up his career in Germany. In other words, if red shift works as proposed by Halton Arp that might explain how astronomers simply think they are 280 million years short of Big Bang. They might be an awful lot closer.
In addition, one might also wonder if this is evidence that Big Bang never happened and Frred Hoyle was right all along. As an astrophysicist of some note, Hoyle was strongly against the concept of Big Bang. He also wrote a lot of books for the layman on astronomy and cosmology, questioning a lot of other mainstream ideas. He also wrote a major book on the Ice Age, with the simple title, Ice, in which he showed that scree on mountains was not due to glaciation but all down to lightning striking mountain tops – on the basis lightning strikes tall objects, such as trees and church steeples. Giving up on Big Bang is probably too stressful for cosmologists to accept so we may expect, at some point in the future, a relook at red shift and the dating of distant cosmic objects.
