<i>Well, I must admit I am slightly puzzeld over this suddendly strict moderating policies...</i><br /><br />There is nothing "new" about these policies. They have been in effect for several <i>years</i>.<br /><br /><i>I was trying to give you a hypothesis ( and I made it WERY clear that it was a hypothesis only) regarding the expansion of the universe.</i><br /><br />And so you are. Pray continue. The only caveat being - <i>uniformly</i> applied across the hard science forums - that ideas that are not a part of accepted or mainstream science have a limited time span here. If you can actually prove them or even show a glimmer of correctness to them, then they remain; if not, the thread <b>may</b> head to Phenomena.<br /><br />That is our policy, applied here for years. And that is <i>all</i>. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

In other words we dont want cranks. But ranur has rightly pointed out such threads are going for long time and months together.

Heh. Posting at the same time. Never seen that here, nope. <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /><br /><br />Yeah, there have been crackpot threads before, which does not in the least imply <i>this</i> is a crackpot thread. We try to remove the truly crackpot threads when we find them, but sometimes they actually escape our notice (can't be everywhere). That's why we rely a lot on the "please move this thread" thread in S&A.<br /><br />At any rate, none of my comments were intended to suggest anything was going awry here; merely a courtesy to the participants of this discussion. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

No, not a crank; I didn't imply that. However, you <i>did</i> state some very speculative physical theory, that is to say, contradicting current theory. It is entirely possible you will not be able to "prove" it. Others may also then pick up the ball and continue to run with it, pursuing the unproven line of reasoning. At some point, it becomes an issue. That's all. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

What, time being a "flexible" quantity that changes as the spacetime metric changes? Possibly so. Of course, per/entropy, always forward, not retrograde. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

As I look at images from the Hubble at distant spiral galaxies and of nebulae, it appears that the images are frozen in time, althought they outwardly appear to be in motion. Is there something I am missing. Is our perception of time and space actually different in our perception? Example, Nebulas appear to have been stirred up ie; gas and dust,,,I just dont get it <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

There are theories that quasars are the stripped cores of devoured galaxies that have been "spat out" at high velocity, and thus would be close to, but have a very different redshift from, their parent galaxy.

The key point here is that, even if quasars turn out not to be very distant as previously thought, this just precludes us from using them as a measure of distance. It does not preclude us from using our observations of galaxies with redshifts of up to z=7 or so as a measure of distance, and does not contradict the idea that the universe is expanding, as we have many other observations that seem to confirm that, the time-dilation of SN1a supernovae being one of them and the increase in the apparent angular diameter of galaxies with redshifts of over z=1.6 being another.</p><p>We have seen no quasars with a redshift of over z=2.11 close to the centres of galaxies, but we have seen galaxies with redshifts of up to at least z=7. </p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000">_______________________________________________<br /></font><font size="2"><em>SpeedFreek</em></font> </p> </div>
