I'm new to this forum and need to throw out a question:
I'd like to know what the difference in the time that I might record if I were standing at the beginning of the Big Bang looking forward and if I were here now looking back.
In other words how old would the universe look if I were God sitting at the beginning?
This is inspired by the book "Big Bang and Genesis" by Gerald Schroeder.
Someone told me his math was wrong, but I don't know the math so hopefully someone can explain it.
Here are some relationships he gives that may be wrong:
-----------------------------------------------
Day 1: 24 hrs = 8billion yrs = CBR blueshift from beginning (z+1) is 1
Day 2: 24hrs = 4billion yrs = (z+1) is 2x10^12
Day 3: 24hrs = 2billion yrs = (z+1) is 3x10^12
Day 4: 24hrs = 1billion yrs = (z+1) is 3.5x10^12
Day 5: 24hrs = 0.5billion yrs = (z+1) is 3.7x10^12
Day 6: 24hrs = 0.25billion yrs = (z+1) is 3.9x10^12
Someone pointed out that he should have used base e, not 2, and that the epochs of billions of years would actually increase in length gradually according to the CBR redshift/blueshift.
Can you help?
