Since the persons holding the opposing view do not feel it is necessary to provide links to support their view I feel no need to continue this...
2inquisitive, You are correct I am not a physicist. Are you a cosmologist? Please address the redshifts that show recessional velocities faster...
Walter, May I suggest spending some time on NASA's WMAP site. http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/m_uni/uni_101accel.html Here is a bit of what can be...
Fraggle Rocker, What is space? Is it nothing? If you prefer to think of it as nothing, maybe this will help. There are some cosmologist that would...
Fraggle Rocker, Since you seem to have an open mind on the subject. I have found these answers to the questions that seem to be causing your...
Saquist, No, I've never read any thing of that sort. I am neither cosmologist or physicist. My views are from what I've read while trying to...
Saquist, Ballistically speaking, there is a center to an explosion. There is no place you can point to as being the center of the universe. Even...
Walter said: "And, if you want references, go back to Hubble's original works. He concluded that the galaxies were physically receding from us,...
For those that would like a source, other than the posters opinions, as to whether space expands or not, here is a link to a wikipedia article on the...
temur, Good question. I've never heard or thought about that process. If the field theories and GR are united, I think both will be modified in...
2inquisitive, The goal is to unite the quantum fields and General Relativity. This might happen by quantifying gravity. Curved space as the cause...
temur, Currently, all that can be said, is that mass causes a warping of space-time, which is the cause of gravity. There is a theoretical...
Walter, You asked, "How can nothingness expand". The only answer I can offer, is that it expands the same way nothingness(space-time) is curved by...
fishtail, It seems there is another ruler that has confirmed the distances derived from SN redshifts. Heres a PDF file that is easy to read....
Walter, This too is from Ned Wright's website. The frequently asked questions section. How can the oldest stars in the Universe be older than...
BenTheMan, Do you consider the distance to the Gravity Probe B satellite is a great diatance from the earth. Even though the effects are small the...
fishtail, When it comes to physics and cosmology I am a follower and don't feel qualified to speculate. If I had to guess, I would say the next...
There are two types of precession, caused by the space-time warping, predicted by GR, and have been tested by the Gravity Probe B experiment. While...
fishtail, How do we know this back ground is a relic of the big bang? It was predicted by General Relativity and as our measurements get more...
Walter, When you said: Only one of those "models" can be correct. A more in depth analysis yields the result that it is the infinite universe...
