How the Universe Stopped Making Sense

We're getting something wrong about the universe.

====================
Thank you for the link - very interesting.


So while the  expansion rate from the WMAP data (from the WMAP probe) can be harmonized with the widely different estimates from studying the CMB (cosmic microwave background radiation from just after the beginning (Gen.1:1) - aka "the Planck collaboration" . the Cephoid variable data cannot be so harmonized - yet.

 

Hmmm - sorry, I got that wrong since the WMAP data is the CMB data.

Excerpt:

"But the most direct measurement, based on actually studying how far away things are in our local universe and how fast they're moving, doesn't agree. The Cepheid measurement is way out there on the right.... and that's a problem."

 

Could it be that the Hubble constant is not constant?  We now know that the expansion rate is increasing due to  dark energy - but most scientists (not all) assume our universe is a closed system - Isaiah 40:22,26 leaves open another possibility  which these scientists are not likely to consider!

 

Have you looked up our literature on the CMB, dark energy, the gravity of dark matter, and the Big Bang theory?

 

There are allot of things we don't know.

 

Humbling, isn't it!

Our literature is written in a way that is easier to understand - though, of course, we have not commented on this most recent data/discovery.

 

For example this link concerning the CMB (cosmic microwave background radiation perhaps the remnants of the big bang/instant of creation):

Excerpt:

 

"Therefore, in November 1989 the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite was launched into outer space by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, of the United States. Its discoveries were described as monumental. Professor Block explained: “The ripples reported by the Differential Microwave Radiometer on board COBE were the very fluctuations imprinted on our cosmos that led billions of years ago to the formation of galaxies.”

Scientists claim to know everything(theory of everything) yet they know nothing- 1 Corinthians 1: 20... Reminds me of babel

My experience is that scientists are inquisitive minds who have realised that the more they learn, the more they understand that they don’t know anything.

He lights up my path.

As I hear and obey.”
