I know this isn't the first thread on this issue but I'm hoping some of you brainiacs can clear up something for me please. I have been living under the understanding that light doesn't travel through glass but rather the glass itself replicates the emf. I learned this a many years back from...

Sorry to be cynical, your posts are most informative to an amateur like me so many many thanks for the work you and others put in on this site, but doesn't this link just state that the observations don't fit the theory so we add in X to balance the equation and X is called dark energy...

If space really does expand how do we know the expansion is uniform? If space expansion is variable then redshift readings cannot be relied on as an accurate measurement of distance/recessional velocity.

So it has nothing to do with source traveling towards or away from viewer then? Would it not be blue shifted if traveling towards us and redshifted if traveling away regardless of how long it took to reach us?

Maybe I misunderstand redshift. I was under the impression redshift occurs due to wavelengths stretching when spacetime expands and has nothing to do with age.

It is not the travel time, rather if space expansion occurred with light from a galaxy that redshifted the light and then a star developed after the expansion or the rate of expansion had changed, that would account for anomalous readings of stars to their inherent galaxy.

What got me thinking (sorry no link I cannot find it), was a set of blogs of astronomers debating redshift and some were advocating it as wrong given individual stars having totally different redshifts from their host galaxy. I wondered if this was possible due to the stars having developed long...

If there are 2 objects emitting light to each other and the light fills the spacetime between them and then that spacetime expands the waveform becomes stretched. However, if the middle of the spacetime between the 2 objects has yet to have light enter it from either object and that spacetime...

The Us should be careful not to copy the UKs policy which has seen many indigenous people become minorities and live in places no longer recognisable as English and where English is a secondary language. Multiculturalism has resulted in the alientaion of the English in their own country and gang...

So anti matter isn't really anti matter at all. It is matter with opposite charge. Still matter in my view. I wish science would not have such ambiguous misleading terms such as this.

I hope employment in the US falls to a point where it no longer can afford to go blowing up people around the world as it has been. Many countries get portrayed in western media as having bad human rights records, yet the US is among the worse. A bankrupt America can only be good for other...

I thought the fact that gravity is the attraction of matter to matter and the fact light is affected by gravity indicates mass for attraction to take effect.

Am i correct in thinking the term 'dark' infers no emission of EMF whatsoever? If that is correct, does that imply that dark matter does not interact with 'fields' the same as normal matter if at all? Referring to the neutrino discussion, does the faster a particle travels have an...

given that all matter is attracting all matter, should all matter become evenly distributed at some point in time, as gravity stabilises motion? if not what is preventing this from happening?

given that gravity is all things attracted to all things, should not all matter eventually be scattered evenly across space time, a kind of equilibrium of gravity; or is it impossible for this to occur in 3 dimensions as matter at the centre of the universe would experience differing gravity to...
