.. well first it was 50km per second before it changed to 67km per second .. only now a team has discovered that at closer distances its expanding at 73km per second?
So .. we got it wrong? Is it changing its expansion rate over time? Are different part of the universe expanding at different rates for some unknown reason? Is the universe shaped differently to what they have been stating? In which case the age of the universe is also not what they stated it was either.
When you talking of billions of light years which means billions of years and I have stated this before .. you have got no way of knowing what effects this has. Its not possible to test some things.
This is something I really never expected to hear in all honesty.
This is in the back of several things .. needing to work out how to protect humans from radiation beyond the Van Allen Belts, announcing that we have been in a period of increased meteors and admitting that they were not aware of this before and nor how they were judging this?
Known for a while they had other things wrong .. the Sun being behind climate change for a start and the torsional oscillations of the Sun, Sunspot numbers and altering peaks which many believe works via cycles over specific periods of time. Very large periods of time.
So the age of the universe that they have insisted was accurate is now out of the window and heaven only knows when it will ever come back.
I have lost track of the number of times I have heard "We can measure this with absolute/relative accuracy" only for months or years later they go and realise they screwed up.
Here is something to make you think .. we assume everything using measurements of a photon of light but .. it might seem to be unchanging to us but how do you know this different over ..
- Thousands of light years
- Millions of light years and therefore millions of years
- Billions of light years and therefore years
- We have only been measuring for hundreds of years
I had wondered what happens to light over millions or billions of years .. maybe its possible that the waves that make up light ever so slightly change over vast amounts of time?
Now think of the distances .. how do you know that light has not .. passed though something over all that distance we are unable to detect?
They insisted that CO2 was the reason for climate change and I knew it was not CO2 and was a natural process and simply looking at the evolution and locations of small slow moving animals showed you that the warming had been going on a God damn long time before the industrial revolution started.
Three decades on and two decades on from seeing my proof and trying to explain to people and posting it on this very blog .. and ..
None of their predictions have really come to light .. some have been the exact opposite to what they claim and we have had to record breaking winters and possibly three and we know we are going to break more records in the next two to three years.
Science is about theory .. or guessing .. and hoping you prove that your right.
But today its either about egos "Oh yeah this is definitely how it is" or getting on TV "Were all going to boil and be under water in ten years .. in ten years .. in another ten years"
Hack scientists or sensationalist scientists chasing fame or money is how I see it today and it has gradually deteriorated over time.
There are many names that I do admire though .. but mainly the big ones. Carl Sagan came across as someone who was genuinely interested, passionate and wanted to know the truth and the facts. Feynman, Schroedinger, Kaku and Greene are among others.
News media science correspondents are not .. and the absolute trash they often write is enough to make my eyes water.
