Popping The Big Bang

Jim Greenfield wrote: "J. Scott Miller" wrote in message ... Thanks again for once again demonstrating how a lack of understanding of a scientific theory allows one to make foolish statements in public. My suggestion - get some knowledge and stop making stupid statements. If you can't 'see' that the whole BBB's was proposed because the earth 'seemed' to be near the center of the universe, as every way we look the red shift appears to show galaxies moving away, then YOU fit the description! if that is what you 'see', then you have misunderstood the bb theory. How handy is it that 'space is expanding, taking matter with it'?? How handy is it that the speed of light is finite, so that as we look further out in the universe we see it how it was longer back in the past. what we see at 13B ly away is not the edge of the universe, what we see there is how the universe was 13B years ago; relativly shortly after the BB. Is that so? Pictures look mighty like the ones just around here- old and wrinkled, not young at all. And people there see the same thing looking here! Don't you think Al's bull****ometer could be suggesting that we are both victims of the same illusion? Jim G |

The fish I (sometimes) catch are much more intelligent, logical, errudite and persuive than you (and probably more imaginative and knowledgable) Jim G |

Bull**** meter quivers and it isn't even uncrated yet. Albert (are you descended?) I once worked for a mining exploration company. We drilled bore holes down which the 'logger' sent a probe to measure the radiation level (we looked for uranium deposits). The logger had to set his probe for back ground radiation, before starting his test. On one occasion, he thought that something was broken, as he couldn't set to zero; the needle kept going off the dial. After a hold up of several days, and two factory rebuilds of the probe, he realised that we were standing in the stuff!! So the next time your meter quivvers, check your boots! It will be a sure sign that you stepped in something smelly! Apparently we are close to the position of the 'singularity' from which the universe sprung into being some 13.7 billion years ago, and can see its glory in all directions. Bull****. Bull****! Your tongue isn't connected to yoru brain by simple observation. Every point in the universe is at its exact center *right now* and is equally distant from the Big Bang. As you look into space you look back into time and *right now* isn't there yet. IT IS THERE- we just haven't SEEN IT YET!! Not so those poor souls at the extremities! BULL****. Go out at night. Look at a far galaxy at one horizon and than at another 180 degrees away. Theya aren't in each other's light cones. Neither one exists as viewed by the other. You are making an arbitrary assumption (last in capitals). You are assuming the ages of the galaxies to be less than the time it would take a photon to cross that void (in many cases this might be true, if one or both of the galaxies have fizzled out or yet to be formed) If as claimed, the edge of the universe is 13.7 bly away, the total width becomes 27.4 bly, and so they are only able to 'see' as far as us (half of it). Bull****. You don't know anything about inflation or your light cone. [snip] (And isn't 'The Big Bang' such an imaginitive load of rubbish??) Yeah, and cosmic background radiation and its power spectrum don't exist, either. Idiot. They may come from far beyond our limit of vision- NOT be a "product" of BBBs Cheers Jim G (and check those boots) |

An expanding smoke cloud does not maintain homogeneity- neither would an expanding universe! Simple geometry shows the outer galaxies spreading faster, so the inner ones need a mechanism to maintain an equal separation..... ("POP") I don't see how you justify that. As far as I know BB argument states that recessional effects on mass distribution will be the same for both the observer and the observed. When we see galaxies speeding away and "rareifying" as groups in their region the same is happenning here to our groups. Neither place theirs or ours is special or different in terms of recession. Expansion is, roughly speaking, a product of hubble and distance. East or West makes no difference. roy Exactly! So what we both see is an illusion (expansion et al) Fill a room with balloons. Pop them all at once. Whence goes the material contained there-in? Nowhere man! Jim G |

Smith Thanks, David. I had forgotten about that analogy. I wish I could get my mind around how it translates to 3-D, but I guess I need lots more math than I have. LOL One other quick question (which may show my extreme ignorance, but what the hell): If the BB started at a single point, when and how did the universe (or our portion of it) transition to what it is now? Instantly? After inflation? I went through most of the stuff that Mr. Wormley provided, but.../shrug/...what can I say? Most of it was over my head. Heck, as a layman I think I understand quantum physics better than I understand Cosmology. LOL Thanks again, David! As frustrating as this is to get a handle on, it's still fascinating. -- -Randy (OF+) 'Up the stairs. Into the fire.' |
