Cosmological relativity theories

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the implications of cosmological relativity theories regarding the timing of the Big Bang as observed from different galaxies. It raises the question of how observers in a distant galaxy, 1 billion light-years away, would perceive the Big Bang compared to observers on Earth, highlighting a potential contradiction in their predictions. A new theory, referred to as the 'cosmological theory of relativity,' has been proposed, suggesting that understanding time in cosmology requires careful consideration of the observer's frame of reference. Participants mention the need for observational evidence to support these theories, particularly those presented by Carmeli, who is noted for his unconventional ideas. The conversation emphasizes the complexity of interpreting cosmic events and the importance of relativistic corrections in cosmological observations.

If a galaxy is 1 billion light year far from us and if for us big bang
did happen 13 billion years ago then when it did happen for that galaxy ?

Pure guess will predict the answer 12 billion years, but what the observer on that galaxy will say about us ? will not he predict that we are close to big bang by one year ? just the opposite of what we predict here. Who is right ?

A new theory named 'cosmological theory of relativity' has been proposed.

Before saying that looking deep in space is identical to looking back in time make sure what time you are talking about.

It incorporates relativistic corrections and illustrates why light emitted by now distant objects took so long to reach us. I am familiar with Carmeli's papers. He is a bit of a maverick. That is not a bad thing. His papers are interesting, just not yet well supported by observational evidence.

astro-ph/0411180 says that in Cosmological General Relativity (CGR), gravitation is described by a curved four-dimensional Riemannian spacevelocity. i never heard before the term spacevelocity, and is not defined in the paper. Probably is an idea of Carmeli coming from previous papers
 
Has there been any progress with these theories over the past few years?
 
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
