Saving Cosmogony: New “Research” Puts “Age of Universe” at 26.7 Billion Years
James Webb Space Telescope “elderly galaxy” paradox resolved with yet another ad hoc.
It had to happen. Cosmogonists just achieved salvation once again. No admission the universe is infinite, just another bunch of calculations to stumble over the “elderly galaxies” problem. Any cosmogonists paying attention knew spiral galaxies could not form in the mere 300 to 450 million years allotted by the recent JWST photos.
The “new” research published in the vaunted “Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society” surreptitiously rejects Einstein’s Untired Light Theory. It grants that light might lose energy over distance as maintained by Infinite Universe Theory, but keeps the erroneous universal expansion interpretation in place. Energy loss over distance so obviously implies the universal expansion idea is bogus. The author just doesn’t get it and the reporter can’t manage a challenge to the silliness.
According to science reporter Bernard Rizk:
“Moreover, Gupta [author of the paper] suggests that the traditional interpretation of the “cosmological constant,” which represents dark energy responsible for the accelerating expansion of the universe, needs revision. Instead, he proposes a…
