Fascinating discovery. But I am dismayed that they are already trying to wedge this discovery into their chosen model, rather than reevaluating the Big Bang itself. I have trouble believing that something that should have taken billions of years to form could be there fully formed at such an...

Hopefully they will investigate and determine their age without reference to their Big Bang model. But I am afraid they will use the Methuselah star illogic and try to determine their age by when their prevalent elements came to be according to the Big Bang theory timeline. Why are they so...

This was a study? Can I please request an actual scientific study that determines the age of this star without consideration of the Big Bang? If I had the money, I would pay for it myself. This equation does not compute in my brain. So Methuselah is younger than they measured because substance...

I am so glad more people don't have your attitude, we'd still be living in caves.

If I am not qualified to say I have seen flying ships, I am not qualified to determine there are rolling vehicles on the road even although I see them everyday. Who are you to determine my qualifications? You don't want to believe I saw a flying ship, therefore you question my qualifications to...

You said it better than I could. These are big problems and I think the biggest problem I have is how it was presented to me in school as undeniable fact. As an adult I can study on my own without having to answer to teachers. Some of the Bang theory holds true to a certain extent but so much...

I, for one am relieved the government is finally taking them seriously. I have seen strange things in the sky on numerous occasions and some of them were undeniably spacecraft of some sort, one a huge Chevron shaped ship that seemed to be at least a mile wide. I tend to keep my sightings and...

Yes, it was definitely articles like this that got me thinking it was fact over theory. I read too many like that and I respect Hawking's work so much I just took it for granted. I tend to think that like stars, black holes will probably die in many different ways. I am particularly drawn to...

Why have I read about Hawking radiation as if it is proven? This sort of thing gets so confusing! This isn't the first subject this has happened with . This is starting to irritate me. If the amount of energy emitted is far less than what the black hole takes in, it wouldn't disappear, though...

The problem is we don't know if they do eventually evaporate entirely from Hawking radiation, only that they emit it. That slow of a death almost seems meaningless for us. This will be an interesting subject to keep an eye on. It's a shame none of us will live long enough to observe it.

Yes, that's the one. I rather like it because it makes more sense. But maybe those black holes didn't evaporate but instead became one massive white protuberance ( science calls them white holes, but a hole isn't the opposite of a hole) and that is the "singularity" of the Bang. Of course...

My issue is with ancient objects and the BB. There are objects that are too old to fit the 13.8 billion year model. That Methuselah star is my favorite - I read how they pared down it's age through conjecture... Well, element A didn't exist until year X so therefore that's how old the star...

What do you guys think of Penrose's theory of a universe before this one? His evidence involves hotspots in the CBR, but other scientists say they don't see them there.

Are there any theories out there that you think are better than the BBT? CERN has discovered how particles form spontaneously in a vacuum (or at least claim they have, and I believe them) and I am wondering how this might effect cosmology theories. I've read arguments for and against the Bang...

Please explain. Every article and science show (including Nova) I have come into contact with all talk of this mysterious singularity that has no explanation. Now you say there is no singularity. Then what was it that expanded? Now as for this balance of energy- I just went through a month of...
