So what happens with this theory if the “red shift” is not really evidence of the Universe’s expansion....?
An interesting but corellating concept deals with the decrease in time itself. The reason we have stars farther away and older than the known Universe is that the concept we call time, the energetic medium that gives impetus to the next incremental Planck time, is dilluted, or crystalising. Good stuff.
What happens to the red shift. It would become an important aspect of most radiation reaching this planet, I would assume. Good question. The phase shifting concept is more sound than most. Definitely worth watching IMO. The crystalization, for lack of a better word, would decrease the available energy in the medium. Photons cannot, naturally, be slowed down around here. The medium drains them. We assume it means interaction with the space-time medium relative to movement. There is no agreement on the variability of time itself. I personally think that is the most important aspect to advance beyond the models we’ve got now. The snapshot. The promising thing about this line of thought is it deals with space as more of an object. Pretty cool stuff, nowhere near convinced, thanks for the reping.:)
A cosmological phase transition -- similar to freezing -- is one of the distinctive aspects of this latest effort to account for dark energy -- the mysterious negative force that cosmologists now think makes up more than 70 percent of all the energy and matter in the universe and is pushing the universe apart at an ever-faster rate.AC/DC sez it best on their new album, track one, "Rock and Roll Train" -- but the chorus lyrics are "runaway train". Dark matter, dark energy, the same kludge, and not a good one.
