Yes, they're probably wrong, but that doesn't prove the current hypotheses are right. Do these admit the existence of trolls? Ah. Now, THERE, we have observational evidence. As Einstein didn't quite say, any theory that doesn't admit the existence of trolls has to be discounted. And Hawking has said that his theories do admit them. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |

I never claimed there was one. I was drawing a (blurred) distinction between direct and indirect evidence - where the former rests on a basis of only theories themselves established by direct evidence, culminating in actual measurements. but I presume that you consider the various standard candle techniques, the correlation between luminosity and redshift, and the variation of galaxy morphology with redshift to be indirect evidence. Of course, because they are. Would the light echo of SN 1987A be the greatest distance that you accept as directly measured? I would need to study the paper in detail, to see whether it relies on any so-far-unproven hypotheses. This is off-group, so will be my penultimate post. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |

Martin Brown wrote: Standard candles that can be seen at great distances are pretty well understood these days. And lots of amateurs keep regular watch. Their standardness is all based on indirect evidence. For example, cosmologists believe that the laws of physics settled down only shortly after the big bang, so why are we assuming that all physical constants are the same across all space and time since then? We have damn-all direct evidence of general relativity at high space- time stresses, Actually we do have some pretty good examples in the millisecond pulsars for instance. Shortly after the first discovery of a binary ms pulsar an error was found in the FORTRAN converter of the early VSOP computer algebra generated planetary ephemeris thanks to a systematic error in the GR predicted delay observed when the signals passed near to Jupiter. The spin down rate matches the GR predictions very nicely. That is LOW space-time stresses, not enough to distinguish Einstein's formula from several others. there are alternative hypotheses that are mathematically consistent and compatible with known physics. Yes, they're probably wrong, but that doesn't prove the current hypotheses are right. Indeed. But the evidence for a Big Bang cosmology is pretty compelling. There are very few die hard Steady Staters remaining these days. Why assume that is the only alternative? There are several variants of the big bang that would enable wildly different ages for the universe. This will be my last post on this topic! Anyone who wants me to respond further should send Email.

The spin down rate matches the GR predictions very nicely. Ah, early 486 chip then? or even that the red shift is due to recession, and We don't know this for certain (but it is likely to be true for the vast majority of normal light emitting stars), but for some extremely compact objects some of the redshift could come from photons having to climb out of a very deep gravitational potential well. But on a galactic scale such objects seem rather unlikely except near the central black hole. And we do see a picket fence of intervening Lyman alpha absorbtion lines in the continuum of allegedly distant sources at high redshift. there are alternative hypotheses that are mathematically consistent and compatible with known physics. Yes, they're probably wrong, but that doesn't prove the current hypotheses are right. Indeed. But the evidence for a Big Bang cosmology is pretty compelling. There are very few die hard Steady Staters remaining these days. Depending on what you mean by that. There are plenty who believe that the universe is continuously expansing and then falling in on itself in an unending cycle of big crunches ans big bangs. There are also some who posit continuous creation/generation of matter at the centre of the universe, and yet others who maintain that by means of a contorted space/time continuum what goes out of the fringes appears to be coming in through the centre...

The spin down rate matches the GR predictions very nicely. Ah, early 486 chip then? No a long way before that. I am not sure if the 286 had been invented back then. I heard about it first hand in 1984. ISTR it had something to do with continuation cards in the FORTRAN conversion output of a symbolic algebra system. It was big iron mainframe stuff. http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/p...993/press.html This quirk isn't mentioned in their Nobel prize citation, but it was quite interesting at the time. Their observations were accurate enough to find fault in a solar system ephemeris model that was unchallenged in its precision and widely assumed to be good enough for all practical purposes. there are alternative hypotheses that are mathematically consistent and compatible with known physics. Yes, they're probably wrong, but that doesn't prove the current hypotheses are right. Indeed. But the evidence for a Big Bang cosmology is pretty compelling. There are very few die hard Steady Staters remaining these days. Depending on what you mean by that. There are plenty who believe that the universe is continuously expansing and then falling in on itself in an unending cycle of big crunches ans big bangs. Some of these ideas can be ruled out observationally. Unless you invoke a perverse deity to tweak things around on an ad hoc basis. One nasty world model invokes demons whose job it is to decide on surprising answers to any new questions that experimentalists decide to ask. It is just so much more appealing to have the laws of physics the same for all observers in an inertial frame of reference. Multiverse conjectures allow for spanning all possible universes but with only the interesting ones really showing up. A bit like the way wave propagation of light simplifies to geometrical optics when viewed at the larger scale. There are also some who posit continuous creation/generation of matter at the centre of the universe, and yet others who maintain that by means of a contorted space/time continuum what goes out of the fringes appears to be coming in through the centre...
