Dear Ken,
Last year NASA indicated that there were problems
with the speeds and locations of the two Pioneer and both Voyager spacecrafts
which are far beyond the orbit of Pluto. According to their known trajectories
they appear to be slowing and are nearer to earth than they should be.
They are also not in the positions that they should be. The distances are
determined by a speed of light calculations on time signal broadcasts
from the crafts. The positions are determined by the points in the sky
radio dishes are directed to acquire the signals.
The craft all have the same mission now. They are looking for the edge
of the solar magnetic envelope. Well they are now beyond the etheric magnetic
sphere of the solar system and into interstellar etheric densities. Light
and radio signals are now travelling a wee bit faster. Thus the spacecraft
are in their calculated positions and have not slowed, it is the light
which increased speed. The spacecraft are also in their correct positions
too. Light going from a less dense medium to a more dense medium is bent
towards the perpendicular (Snell's Law of Refraction). The path of the
radio signal has been bent. It is like looking at a rock beneath water
the path of the light has been changed going from one medium: water, to
another medium: air.
Another aspect of the radio signals are that they have been red-shifted
slightly. This leads to another big connundrum.
The Big Bang Theory (and its many versions) is an assumption based on
redshift. The further astronomers look out into the universe, the greater
the redshift. It would seem that everything started at one point and exploded
outward. Puzzling observations suggest that the most distant galaxies and
quasars are accelerating. Redshift calculations indicate that quasars are
travelling at near the speed of light.
What is actually happening is that light from quasars is passing through
alternating galactic and intergalactic densities. The greater the distance
the greater the number of galaxies the light has passed. The light travels
faster through intergalactic space and slows in the etheric densities of
the galaxies. Upon exitting a galactic density the light resumes travelling
at intergalactic speed. Due to energy conservation laws (which have yet
to be formulated), the light loses energy as it accelerates and this is
the cause of redshift. Of course there are galaxies which are redshifted
because they are traveling away from us as there are blueshifted galaxies
like Andromeda which are traveling towards our Milky Way, but I feel most
redshifting is due to galactic-intergalactic etheric lightspeed changes.
This blows the whole Big Bang Theory sky high. Until galactic and intergalactic
lightspeeds can be determined the size and age of the universe is entirely
open. Redshifting simply means some stars are distant and quasars are extremely
distant and no real distance figures can be placed on far away stellar
objects. Our picture of the universe may return to Fred Hoyle's Steady
State Theory of 60 years ago. (Hoyle died recently.) The genesis
of the universe may not have originated in an inflationary way. The age
of the universe may be far older than currently believed.
I do not know if The Big Bang Theory slowed the advancement of astronomy.
Very few astronomers theorize, most are taking measurements of that which
interests them and trying to fit all the oddities together. The telescopes
and spacecraft that have been built to prove the Big Bang Theory may disprove
it.
