Default Hubble telescope finds 'never-seen' galaxies

"Oh No" schreef in bericht

Thus spake Oh No
Can anyone reference the paper or even just a report stating the
redshifts of these galaxies

I did find this

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap091209.html

There is already a problem in standard cosmology explaining how galaxies
can form at red shift 6. Naturally I take this as further evidence of
the squared redshift law found in relational quantum gravity. According
to this the universe would have been about 1/3 current size, instead of
1/9th, at the time light left these galaxies


I agree with you that there are problems.
The whole problem IMO boils down to the question:
What does a red shift of 6 physical mean.
A value we measure NOW from light of a galaxy transmitted
in the past.
Does that value mean we can say anything about the present
of that Galaxy (its present position and speed)
IMO the answer is No. (or very little)
Does it mean that we can say anything about the speed
of this Galaxy in the past ?
Also very little.
The most we can say is that this Galaxy is (was) far away
because the redshift is large, mostly caused by space expansion
A smaller part of the redshift is caused by the peculiar motion of
the Galaxy at the time of transmission (Dawn of the Galaxies)
