Default Olbers paradox; ill-posed

Ole Roemer discoverd the speed of light, looking at the moons of Jupiter,
or Saturn, at opposite seasons of Eaaarth

I don't know, I'd have to check, but I was pretty sure that he was
post-Galileo, hence knew the speed of line was finite


about a year ago, I went to a meeting of the local astro club,
a high redshift talk, and it was pretty obvious that it was very fuzzy

since infrared astronomy is quite new, it now seems very simple;
Olber's paradox doesn't even exist,
even if you believe in teh big bang "reason" for the redshift (and
that is totally passe'

I suggest that that is cool
