ANNOUNCEMENTS &
NEW ITEMS:
(Most recent at top of column)
(2024 July 12): Press Release:
Remarkable convergence of gravity theory and empirical evidence has revealed
the cosmic-scale geometry of the Universe.
The DSSU research article "Natural
Cosmic-Scale Geometry of Our Universe" has now been published. Links
are posted here. □
Meanwhile, the war on civilization escalates:
● See the reports at Big Sky Free Press –Beyond the Headlines
(http://www.bsfreepress.net/)
● Assassination attempt on President Donald Trump (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozCQwPyVKlE).
(2024 June 21): After some now-familiar rounds of fake reviews and
rejections, the latest DSSU research article —entitled Natural
Cosmic-Scale Geometry of Our Universe— has been accepted for
publication. It is an outstanding work, outstanding in the sense that
the underlying theory agrees wonderfully with the empirical evidence —the
abundant and incontrovertible astronomical observations. This is science of
the highest standard. And yet, one reviewer flatly asserted, “It is
completely unscientific,” and recommended rejecting the article
(prompting the editor of the Journal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation
and Cosmology to decline its publication). What!? Thirty-eight
supporting references is not science!? And what about the text and
diagrammatic content being as clear as a cloudless day? … Yes, that
journal, and two others, recognized a serious threat to their sacred
Worldview. □
Meanwhile the decline of civilization and the loss of freedom
continues.
There is an ongoing reinstitution of the ancient practice of
slavery. "During this revival of servitude and oppression, the systems of
enslavement have been greatly upgraded and enhanced, for the purpose of
effectively enslaving the entire human race."
"One of the true motivations behind the DNA altering vaccines, that
are being imposed on all of humanity, is to genetically engineer mankind
with a view to create a new model of human that will perfectly obey
their modern masters."
–Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, Corona Investigative Committee, Grand
Jury Summary (
www.StopWorldControl.com )
(2024 March 8): The Cosmic Geometry paper is currently being
peer-reviewed.
Meanwhile: “The disintegration of Western civilization is
proceeding so rapidly that I cannot keep up with it even as a full time job.
… It is happening right in front of our eyes.” –PaulCraigRoberts.org
(2024 February): New research paper, focusing on the large-scale geometry
of the Cosmos, is currently being readied for publication. It details
the arrangement of gravity cells and how the rhombic dodecahedron is
embedded within a superoctahedron.
Meanwhile: Reflect on the mega-crime of the last century —Dresden
Hellstorm (February 13-15, 1945). It is appalling to think its
perpetrators were actually hailed as war heroes!
● The
Blood of Dresden by Kurt Vonnegut

(2023 October): The
Gerhard Herzberg Award, 2023: Canada's most prestigious prize for
science and engineering went to Yoshua Bengio, a scientist who
helped make the AI revolution possible. As the scientific director of the
Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms and professor at the University
of Montreal, he is both excited and cautious about the future of the
technology he helped create. Congratulations.
(2023 October 12): George Orwell Free Speech Award, 2023:
Congratulations to Jurgen Neumann who was presented with the award
“For outstanding courage in challenging censorship and defending freedom in
pursuit of the truth and for outstanding talent as a freedom communicator &
videographer …”
(2023 September): Newly posted:
Question regarding The Fermi Paradox.
Where are other advanced civilizations?
Meanwhile, history continues to repeat itself and teach essential
lessons:
“As is becoming increasingly more obvious, even to historical novices,
mainstream academia, mass media and what passes for journalism these days is
agenda driven, not truth driven. Certain narratives and ideas that
advance particular agendas are elevated and promoted, while dissenting or
alternative perspectives and viewpoints are hysterically dismissed or
censored.” –The Barnes
Review Vol.29, No.5 (Sept/Oct 2023, p69)
(2023 August):
Important UPDATE to the so-call discovery/detection of gravity
waves (the ones predicted by Einstein’s geometric gravity theory). Turns
out no gravity waves were detected! Just as I had suspected and reported
years ago. … What the LIGO and VIRGO teams actually found was a match-up
between measured signal noise and preprogrammed idealized wave
patterns (i.e., computer stored preexisting general-relativity gravity
waves). It was simply the result of a computerized search to obtain a very
approximate and partial fit between measured signal and simulated “chirps.”
…What was presented to the ever-credulous public was not the actual recorded
waves, but rather the pre-stored-in-computer-memory idealized wave patterns!
Such are the findings of a collaboration of four researchers. [Abstract
& link to full article in the International Astronomy and
Astrophysics Research Journal]
Meanwhile, the collapse continues:
“The United States is falling apart in real time.” –The Barnes Review (July/Aug 2023,
p30)
Suppressed is the essence of the spirit needed to resist the accompanying
enslavement: “That traditional suspicion and disdain of an overreaching
centralized government; that ambitious, fearless, risk-taking outlook; that
love of individual liberty and personal freedom; that hardworking,
productive, can-do attitude —these and similar characteristics are the
essence of the true American spirit.” –The Barnes Review (July/Aug 2023,
p22)
(2023 July 28):
Author’s Curriculum Vitae has been updated to include the discovery
of meta-thermodynamics processes.
(2023 July 21): The revolution in cosmology continues. The first
documentation of Nature’s entropy-lowering mechanism —involving a
structure encompassing two separate and independent processes— has been
published. The latest DSSU article presents a discussion of how cosmic-scale
entropy neutrality is maintained —how two processes prevent the Universe
from ever running down. Press
Release.
Meanwhile: The Great Enslavement continues. The ongoing
implementation measures and events —including real and imagined crises— are
too numerous for the average person to keep track of, let alone deal with.
Sometimes too covert to recognize. Oftentimes seemingly benevolent, like the
pending implementation of digital currency. And always propagandized.
(2023 July 1): The report on Nature’s Entropy-Lowering
Processes has been accepted for publication. Five of five
journal-appointed Reviewers deemed the research article to be
"scientifically correct." ... Details to follow.
(2023 March 24 ... April 15): Latest research paper Nature’s Entropy-Lowering
Processes is currently under review.
Meanwhile: Tyranny in Canada! The persecution of Pastor Artur
Pawlowski. Listen to the incredible first-hand account: Just Right Program
#802 (2023-3-16)
(2023 February): DSSU research article currently being prepared deals with
entropy ... with a focus on Nature's remarkable entropy-lowering
mechanism.
(2023 January 16): Who would believe it! An American official holiday for
communism and its foremost promoter. Clearly the lessons of history have
been ignored … all the while the repression, and enslavement, continues.
(2023 January): DSSU Cosmology is now into its 22nd year
on the Internet —the revolution continues.

Excerpts:
● “The man accredited with discovering universe expansion did not believe
that the universe was expanding. Hubble was convinced that the key evidence,
the cosmic redshift, was caused by some other factor, something more
fundamental than mere expansion.”
● “With the recent discovery of a new cosmic-redshift mechanism, and its
theoretical validation, it turns out that Hubble was right.”
● Explains how “an infinite, non-expanding, perpetually regenerating
universe" is able to predict a dark night sky.

The Cosmology Debate That Never Happened
What historians call "the greatest cosmological debate in
history” was between TWO expanding universes —two

foundational property! If one is to claim some great clash of ideas (let
alone the "greatest") then surely there must exist some deep dividing
difference! (Posted 2011-10)

An Open Letter to the Scientific Community
(Published in New Scientist, May 22, 2004)
"The big bang today relies on a growing number of
hypothetical entities, things that we have never observed-- inflation, dark
matter and dark energy are the most prominent examples. Without them, there
would be a fatal contradiction between the observations made by astronomers
and the predictions of the big bang theory. In no other field of physics
would this continual recourse to new hypothetical objects be accepted as a
way of bridging the gap between theory and observation. It would, at the
least, raise serious questions about the validity of the underlying theory.

INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM:
This website is mainly concerned with revisionism in cosmology. Those of us
involved in replacing the unnatural expanding-universe paradigm are aware of
the difficulties involved.
However,
other revisionists have unimaginable difficulties. Consider the ongoing
persecution of revisionists in other fields of intellectual pursuit:
"It makes you wonder —about the immense effort being made
by State and State-sponsored organizations with budgets of tens of millions
of dollars and thousands of employees and associates to smother and punish
these few men and women. Every punishing instrument imaginable is used,
every vicious slander conceivable, every flagrant and pervasive form of
censorship that law allows, including the imprisonment of simple writers for
thought crimes against the State. ... Makes you wonder." —Bradley R. Smith (2011-1)
●
"Discussing truth is so controversial, so dangerous … In most of the world it is simply illegal.”
–
Gordon Duff, Senior Editor, Veterans Today (2011)
●
"The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who
speak it." –George Orwell
● Why the suppression of free speech is so deadly dangerous:
“When you silence the man of the pen, you
must deal with the man of the sword.” –proverb
● "Free speech is the
essence of Civilization."

DEDICATION: This website is solemnly dedicated to those
individuals who have conducted research in their chosen field and have
informed others of their inquiries and suffered the consequences when
subpoenaed by the Inquisition or some variant thereof. The dedication
extends to those individuals currently imprisoned, and those facing
trial and persecution simply for exercising their basic human right of
freedom of expression supposedly granted to them under the UN Charter of
Human Rights.
"Every
year, hundreds of writers and other literary professionals around the world
are imprisoned, prosecuted, persecuted, attacked, threatened, forced into
exile or even murdered as a result of their work."
ALSO: Be aware of the continuing threat to our precious freedom of expression on the
Internet. The threat is serious and relentless. It is described as “… the formal effort to mimic Communist China’s
system of Internet censorship.” –

End of free speech in Britain:
A publisher of history books in Britain has reported that “due to new laws
in the UK all their books will have to be censored moving forward” to avoid
criminal penalties for “inciting racial hatred.” –The Barnes Review (2020 March/April)
p77
A hostile jury, by a hasty unanimous
verdict, decided that British Nationalist Leader Jez Turner deserves to be sent to
jail for his critical views! Report (2018-5-15).
British Maverick Psychologist
jailed for publishing his research. … “The ambivalence of librarians
getting writers imprisoned quite defies comprehension.” –Simon Sheppard
(2013)
In repressive Germany:
Ursula Haverbeck,
89, Sentenced to 14 Months in Jail for Heresy! –2017 November
This amazing 89-year-old woman continues advocating under the dictum: "Only
the truth will set you free”.
Mrs. Haverbeck, along with her late husband, founded the education facility
Collegium Humanum in 1963, but which was banned by the Marxist thought police in
2008.
Update (2018-5-16): Ursula Haverbeck will celebrate her 90th birthday in a
German prison
cell. The sprightly grandmother is now serving a
two-year prison term without parole merely for stating a sincerely
held opinion that is supported by acclaimed academics worldwide!!
“Frau Haverbeck is now sentenced to two years in prison, merely for her
peaceful historical research” –The Barnes Review Vol.24, No.5
(Sept/Oct 2018) p71
UPDATE (2019-11):
On November 9th (2019), the very day of Ursula Haverbeck’s 91st. birthday,
hundreds of German nationalists, patriots and friends, well-wishers and
admirers rallied in her support. Report on the Rally to Celebrate
Political Prisoner Ursula Haverbeck.
Update (2020-12): This 92-year-old peaceful woman has just
been released from jail, having spent 2&1/2 years behind bars, and less than
2 weeks later was in court in Berlin for more charges ... was
again sentenced to prison!!!

The Supreme Irony:
Fellow freedom-lovers and truth-seekers, please pay
close attention. ... Chemist, historian, and author, Germar Rudolf
sums up the persecution in Germany as follows:
“Now I will summarize here the pseudo-logic hiding behind this absurd and
criminal nonsense of persecuting dissidents. This logic of those in power in
[Germany] really amounts to this:
Because in the past minorities have been persecuted, dissidents imprisoned
and books burned, one feels obliged to do everything in order to prevent a
repetition —even if that entails having to persecute minorities, imprison
dissidents and burn books. [Italics as in the original.]
Because that is exactly what is happening today! Absolutely nothing has been
learned from the past. The table is merely turned around, and for a change a
different group is now being persecuted.”

Publishers, Box 243, Uckfield, UK, 2016) p213

1. The Year the Standard Big Bang Model
Failed
In 1998 one
of the biggest science news story in decades unfolded. It was the year in
which the
generally accepted theory of the universe failed. The dramatic events were
almost immediately detailed in a PBS NOVA science program; and four
years later (in 2002) it was a televised feature story on the news program
60 Minutes. To convey the unexpected nature of the discovery, the 60 Minutes
story compared it to casually tossing your car keys into the air and
finding that they don’t fall back down! It was a memorable demonstration
of a puzzlement confronting advocates of Big Bang cosmology. Here was a situation that
had caught professional physicists off guard. The New York Times (January 1, 2002) reported the response to the discovery from one such
expert:
|
It’s
definitely the strangest experimental finding since I’ve been in
physics,
–Dr. Edward Witten, Institute for Advanced Studies
in Princeton |
|
Astronomers use a certain class of supernovae in a sophisticated
technique to measure cosmic distance. The class members serve as
"standard candles" for measuring and calibrating extraordinary cosmic
distances. Referred to as Type 1a, these extremely massive exploding stars
have a known absolute brightness and a characteristic brightness profile, making the explosion event ideal for determining
distance independent of the customary redshift method. The
brightness profile identifies an astronomical object as Type 1a. A
comparison between its theoretically known brightness and the apparent brightness makes
it possible to estimate its distance.
By the year 1998, researchers had perfected the method. And in that year, two
independent teams discovered that the universe of their authoritative
textbooks —the universe they thought they understood— was not behaving the
way it is supposed to. At first it seemed too incredible to be believed.
After an exhaustive check ruled out potential errors, they eventually
accepted the conclusion coded in the data. The consensus was that the few
dozen supernovae tested were 20 to 25 percent farther away than expected.
Now it may not seem like much, roughly a 1/4 fractional difference, but in
terms of absolute distance we are talking about a three-billion-lightyear
discrepancy (when determined with the DSSU redshift-distance equation).
The astronomer-physicists reluctantly concluded that their Big Bang
(BB) universe is not slowing down its expansion as had been
predicted, but rather it appears to be expanding at an ever faster rate!
The Big Bang universe was now accelerating! Or so it
was believed.
|
The fact that the universe is speeding up might be the biggest mystery in
all of science. –Michael Turner, University of
Chicago
[1] |
|
What a predicament! An embarrassing contradiction of standard theory.
And there was no explanation (at least momentarily) as to why the universe
seems to be speeding up, seems to be in acceleration mode. And so, 1998
was a crisis year for BB cosmology.
In the crisis year of 1998 astronomers found to their amazement that the predicted distance
(bottom curve) of supernova stars did not agree with their actual distance
(as measured be methods independent of their redshift). The supernovae
were actually about 25 percent farther away. If astrophysicists had
recognize the fundamental fact that the real Universe is structured into
repeating regions, that it has a grand-scale cellular structure, then they
would have found a remarkable agreement between measured distance and
predicted distance (upper curve). Their failure to recognize this fact,
embodied in the simple, elegant and valid, DSSU formulation (top
equation), serves to further compound the crisis. (The distance 300Mly is the size of
each cosmic cell measured in million lightyears. The symbol zcc is the
redshift across one cosmic cell. Redshift index spanned by this
graph is from 0 to 10.) |
2. Model Patching
Needless to say, BB proponents don’t like to call the failure of their
cherished model “a crisis” —too suggestive of a pending disaster. The
BB model, it should be pointed out, has struggled, and survived, through
more than
three-quarters of a century. It survived the attacks from the traditional
Steady State models and also the Quasi Steady State model. In hindsight,
it should have died long ago but its faithful devotees keep coming up with
one or another life-supporting patch. For instance, some years ago when someone checked
the numbers, an embarrassing mismatch was uncovered: The universe was
predicted to be considerably younger than many of the objects it contains.
The universe was supposed to be10 billion years old while its oldest known stars were
estimated to be about 14 billion years old!
[2]
[3] A patch was
needed and quickly adopted —something called inflation. Now
almost everyone knows the meaning of monetary inflation, but what
is the meaning of big bang inflation? ... Well, instead of just an
ordinary big bang, this inflation magically turns it into a supersonic big
bang. Inflation is the hypothesized super-fast (hyper-lightspeed-fast)
expansion of space, a brief birthing phase that launched the main
Big Bang event. But keeping in mind the original purpose, wouldn’t a
universe that grew faster be a younger universe? Wouldn’t this
make the age discrepancy worse instead better? The experts assured us the
explanation is counterintuitive and so the BB theory survived the
age-of the-universe problem. Then there was the horizon problem. It deals with the
question of why the temperature of the distant-and-early universe, which
astronomers observe in opposite directions, is so uniform. Regions that
are at opposite ends of the visible universe and unrelated with respect to cause
and effect inexplicably have identical energy states! To solve the horizon
problem, the inflation patch was adjusted and re-applied.
Professor Edward Wright provides a detailed
explanation
[4], aimed at the initiated, which may be helpful in gaining
understanding (but no
promises). The patched-up model of the 1970s and 1980s became known as the inflationary BB model. Jumping ahead to the year 1998, we find the BB model
confronted with the formidable problem discussed earlier. Distant
supernovae were found to be farther away than their redshifts suggest. As
highlighted in the graph, above, their actual distance is significantly
greater than what had been predicted. And since prediction is based on the redshift-versus-distance equation, the equation had to be wrong. Faced with the unexpected mismatch between redshift and
distance of their 1a-supernova standard candles, what do you think the
experts did? ... Exactly, a new patch was cooked-up before you could say,
“your expanding-universe premise is wrong, try a new model.” |
3. Standard Cosmology Response
The response of astrophysicists was predictable. Instead of recognizing
that the Universe we live in is cellular and not expanding, they clung to
the expansion-of-the-whole-universe doctrine. Instead of thinking outside
the box and notice an infinity of cosmic bubbles, they reaffirmed their
faith in universal expansion. Instead of adopting the simple and elegant
cellular formulation (as expressed in the upper curve of the graph) and
thereby immediately resolving the crisis; they declared that the expansion
of the universe is accelerating. The universe is supposedly getting bigger
and bigger, faster and faster.
Did the experts ask themselves, is the acceleration
something real? or is it only apparent? ... Maybe they did. Maybe some
concluded that fundamental revisions were needed. And there is no question
of the fact that some of the most brilliant and dedicated minds on Earth
are involved in the quest for understanding. However, meaningful
revisionism is rarely tolerated; the official paradigm rules; whatever the
field of enquiry, this is the way it is. And in the field of cosmology,
proposing a foundational change becomes unappealing to career astro-researchers.
And so, in 1998 astronomers and physicists convinced
themselves that the universe is accelerating. But with acceleration, a new
mystery emerged. In addition to the fundamental question of why the
universe is expanding in the first place, now there is the utterly
baffling mystery of why it is expanding with a vengeance.
|
In other ways this new dark
universe [dark because acceleration leads to dilution which leads
to darkness] is utterly baffling, a road map to new mysteries. Dr.
Marc Davis, a cosmologist at the University of California at Berkeley,
called it ‘a universe chock full of exotics that don’t make sense to
anybody.’
–Dennis Overbye (The New York Times, July 23, 2002) |
|
No doubt, it must be deeply discouraging when the correspondence
between evidence and theory “doesn’t make sense to anybody.”
|
4. The Patch
In the aftermath of the 1998 discovery, as may be well imagined, a host
of big bang variants were proposed and presented in scientific circles.
The cause of acceleration was of foremost concern as well as
reformulating, or adjusting, relevant equations. For the theoretical cause of acceleration, the experts
proposed that the universe was being subjected to a mysterious dark energy
that expands space and causes an increase in the rate of expansion of the
universe. They were not sure if it is the Lambda force (the one that
Einstein introduced into his universe model in 1917) or if it is another
bout of inflation —a re-inflation phase. Some theorists
turned to something called Quintessence —a force
that may be responsible for the apparent exponential growth of the
universe. As for the practical implementation of the patch: it simply
meant re-evaluating an adjustable factor in the BB equation. An important
parameter known as the matter density parameter, Ωo, was given a new value. As I said
earlier there was no fundamental change in the model; notably, the same
equation continued to be used. The original value of Omega, Ωo, was 1.0 (unity), the
new value was anywhere between 0.25 and 0.35. By selecting the appropriate
Omega value, astrophysicists are able to position the curve almost
anywhere they want on a graph of distance (similar to the graph shown
above). By selecting the appropriate Omega
value, the curve representing the BB theory can always be made to agree
with the data. Almost like magic. And so, with the judicious choice of numerical
factors,
the crisis seemingly disappeared. |
5. The Crisis on a Fundamental Level
In practical terms, the BB model is much like the Ptolemaic
model; with the proper adjustment of variables, it all seems to work. The
Ptolemaic model was able to account for the observed motions of the
planets of the Solar system with the help of various geometric
contrivances to modify the predicted orbital trajectories. Similarly, the
BB model is able to account for the apparent "motions" of the observable
universe, all with the help of about 12 parameters, which, according to
astronomer-and-physicist Mark Whittle, “… accurately measure the
properties of the Universe [and] provide a stunning degree of agreement
and coherence.”
[5] Clearly, the Ptolemaic and BB models work well in an
empirical way.
The problem, however, is fundamental. While both models may be
praiseworthy as intricate reflections of appearances, neither model
is a representation of reality. The central error of the Ptolemaic system
is placing the Earth at the center of the universe; and for the BB system
the central error is universal expansion and its extrapolation to
whole-cosmos expansion.
Let us examine the implications for the cosmic distance
formulation.
Here are the key inputs used for the cosmic-redshift method of
determining reception distance under BB rules:
- Z is the redshift index. It is the essential and primary value measured
by astronomers. This is the actual value that varies with distance.
- Ho is the Hubble constant. It is a measure of
the rate of expansion of space itself —a rate applicable to the present
era of the evolving BB universe. Although it is considered a constant, it
varies with location.
- H is the Hubble parameter (not to be confused with the
Hubble constant). It represents the rate of space expansion as a
function of the age of the BB universe. That is, it varies with
evolutionary time.
- Ω, Omega, is the ratio of the average density of the total
mass-and-energy present in the universe compared to the total matter
density required for the universe to achieve a critical balance, a balance
that will just prevent it from collapsing in on itself. In its simplest
form:
Ω =
(Actual density of matter) / (Critical density of matter).
There are a number of problems associated with the Hubble constant;
some relate to the BB others relate to the real Universe.
One is the long-standing problem of determining an accurate
value. Astronomers have come to recognize that the rate of expansion of
space varies in different parts of the universe. With such regional
variation it is hard to pin down a precise "constant" value. In practice,
an estimated average value is used for the BB cosmic distance equation.
A deeper concern with profound implications: If the distance
equation is to include a measure for the expansion of space, it should
also have a measure for the contraction of space. As Einstein well
understood when he referred to "contractile" gravity, the gravitational
effect tends to contract, or shrink, space. If one includes both factors,
a factor for expansion and another for contraction, that is, one to take
care of the space expanded within cosmic voids, the other to take care of
the space contracted in and around the great galaxy clusters (as well as
isolated field galaxies), then one will find a marvelous balance. One will
find that, although space expands (albeit regionally) the universe does
not expand. If, however, the "contraction" effect is not recognized, and
not taken into account, the result must be an out-of-balance expanding
cosmos. Such oversight leads to the prediction of a big-bang-type
universe.
Another serious problem is that the Hubble constant is based on a
flawed interpretation of the cosmic redshift. The traditional
interpretation of the cause of redshift is that distant galaxies are
receding with the space vacuum in which they are embedded. This
produces a Doppler effect on the galactic light that is eventually
received on Earth. It is, according to this interpretation, simply a
measure of the increase of the intervening space (vacuum) between
our galaxy and the distant galaxy. It is usually expressed as the rate
that a distance of 1 million light years, a tiny portion of the total
distance, increases in one second of time. As an example, 1Mly
typically expands by 15 to 20 kilometers per second. The key point is that
the cosmic redshift is taken to be a Doppler effect. The problem is, in
the real Universe, galaxies are not receding; there is no Hubble-based
Doppler effect.
What actually causes the cosmic redshift is a simple
recently-discovered process called velocity-differential
redshifting. It is amazing that in their search among countless varieties
of tired-light mechanisms theorists had somehow overlooked this
particular, rather self-evident, process.[6] Significantly, the
velocity-differential redshift is applicable to both types of cosmic
regions —those where the vacuum is expanding and also where the vacuum is
contracting.
On the cosmic scale of distances the Hubble constant is
irrelevant. Notice, it does not appear in the Cellular universe
cosmic-distance equation:
.
Turning to the Omega parameter, in order to make the distance equation
fit the observations (such as those made by the Supernova Cosmology
Project and the High-Z Supernova Search and reported in 1998), the density
of all matter has to be about 0.30 as a decimal fraction of critical
density (for a balanced expanding universe). What is needed is for Omegao
to be equal to 0.30:
Ωo ≈ (0.30) / (1.0) .
But all the visible and detectable matter of the universe yields a density
that is only about 0.02 as a fraction of critical density. This means that
the balance of the fraction, or 0.28, must consist of some unknown kind of
matter! Its only known characteristic is that of having a gravitational
nature.
,
Ωo ≈ (0.02 + 0.28) /
(1.0) =
0.30 .
To summarize: In order for the “distance” curve to fit the data
properly (see the graph above), Ωo must be about
0.30; but because visible-and-detectable matter only contributes a tiny
0.02 proportion, a large proportional amount of "dark matter" has to be
invented.
There is, however, no evidence, none whatsoever, that this mysterious dark
stuff exists.
Since it serves no useful purpose for an intrinsically cellular universe,
Omega does not appear in the DSSU cosmic-distance formula.
What about the energy of the vacuum? … The term representing the vacuum
energy is included in the denominator, and often explicitly expressed as:
.
In the BB universe, the vacuum energy overwhelmingly dominates. It is
essentially what keeps the BB from collapsing. And herein lies the
simplified explanation for acceleration. As the universe expands there is
ever more space, more vacuum, and more vacuum energy; ΩVACUUM increases.
However, ΩMATTER does not increase; the matter content of the universe
remains constant. Obviously, Ωo gets smaller and smaller; which, in turn,
means the BB distance curve tends higher and higher. The result is,
essentially, a runaway effect —the acceleration effect.
In contrast, the DSSU maintains the vacuum energy in harmonious balance
with all the other forms of energy.
The differences in cosmologies are fundamental; and the
consequences are profound.
|
6. Harmonious Match
The crisis of 1998 may have been a serious blow to BB cosmology, but it
represented a harmonious match between theory and evidence for the DSSU
theory. The decay characteristics of the flash from supernovae revealed
their extraordinary distance —and these distances agree with the DSSU
redshift-versus-distance formulation. As the upper curve in the graph
indicates, what the observers found and what the equation predicts agree
with each other. DSSU theory converts redshift to distance using
underlying principles that are almost totally alien to standard cosmology
and yet it all agrees with corroborating evidence. The theory uses
principles that are outright heretical —if proclaimed in another age they
would herald instant condemnation from BB orthodoxy and excommunication
for the innovator. They are: (1) The universe is not expanding. (2) The
universe is infinite. (3) The universe had no genesis, will have no
doomsday. (4) Notwithstanding the perpetual existence of the universe,
everything, every entity, in (and of) the universe, has a limited term of
existence. There are continuous non-cyclical regeneration processes, thus,
the overall appearance of the universe never changes. These principles
match reality. The crisis of 1998 focuses attention on an uncompromising
fact: the wonderful match between theory and observation is best achieved
when one’s theory holds that the universe is statically cellularly
structured and correspondingly nonexpanding. |
7. Historical Roots of the Crisis
The BB model fails as a scientific theory. It has always been and always
will be merely a hypothesis. Any theory that incorporates the invalid
conclusion of the historic Michelson-Morley (MM) experiment: is either
incomplete or just plain wrong. Einstein’s relativity theories are
classified under the former —they are incomplete and physicists know they
are incomplete. The Big Bang, the Steady State, and all
expansion-of-the-whole-universe theories are classified under the latter
—they are just plain wrong.
The roots of the crisis in cosmology (as well as physics) trace back to
the decade of the 1880s, the decade of the most historic but misunderstood
experiments in physics. Professor Reginald Cahill of Flinders University
in Australia has investigated and reanalyzed those pivotal experiments and
maintains,
|
“... here physics took a wrong
turn, a mistake of ghastly proportions, from which it has yet to
recover.”
[7] |
|
Albert Michelson and Edward Morley had doubted
their own measurements and followed up their doubts by reporting their
failure to detect the Earth’s absolute motion through space—its
motion with respect to the vacuum, or the aether. This
unjustified “null” interpretation was translated into the invalid
conclusion that the aether does not exist. The concept of absolute
space, or equivalently a space medium, was henceforth banished from mainstream physics. A ghastly mistake.
As discussed in greater detail in various articles posted on the
Cellular Universe website, the invalid conclusion of the MM experiment was
incorporated into a number of important theories and many of the models of
the universe that were developed during the decades after the 1880s. Of
interest in the present brief discussion is that the
expansion-of-the-universe model conceived by Willem de Sitter, Alexander Friedmann, and others during the 1920s perpetuated what is probably the
biggest scientific blunder in modern history. In the years that
followed, the fantastical creativity of Georges Lemaître transformed the
simple expanding-universe model into the
expanding-universe-from-an-unstable-speck-of-almost-nothing model —we call
it the Big Bang hypothesis for short. It stands foremost in perpetuating
the blunder.
The roots of the crisis in
the standard model, as the foregoing suggests, are deep indeed.
|
8. Resolution of the Crisis
Any meaningful resolution must necessarily include the following:
First, recognize that our Universe is not accelerating;
it is not even expanding (only regional "space" is expanding). Face
the reality that the Universe is already fully expanded —always has
been and always will be.
Second, accept what has actually been observed (by astute astronomers
like Jaan Einasto and Anthony P. Fairall); accept what has been logically deduced. Accept that
the Universe has a grand scale cellular structure. Our Universe is a cellular
universe.
Third, adopt the DSSU redshift-distance formulation for calculating
significant cosmic distances. The standard redshift-distance equation used
by astronomers (and shown in the graph) simply will not work in a
multi-cellular non-expanding universe. A logarithmic formulation must be
used.
And lastly, understand that the cosmic redshift is caused by
a velocity differential effect acting on light waves as they
propagate in both expanding-vacuum and contracting-vacuum regions of the
cosmos.
Viewing these requisites in the light of a bureaucratic academia
coursing in the opposing direction and having the inertia of a fully
loaded supertanker leads one to conclude that implementing the resolution
to the 1998 crisis constitutes nothing less than a revolution in
astronomy and cosmology. □
