Now they will have to rewrite the cosmic evolution chapters in all the textbooks - again. I wonder how many decades it will take until they get this updated?

Yes, the theories currently in vogue in cosmology are not perfect. Yes, they will change. Yes, THIS IS HOW SCIENCE WORKS. Scientific theories are NOT dogma. The fact that they can change is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Have your parrot keep repeating this mantra to you and perhaps you'll actually believe it.

The fact that the theories change shows that they are OFTEN WRONG. Many of the theories held today will be proven WRONG in the future.

Yet you will contend for them tooth and nail today, and respond with a meek "oops" when they are found to be in error tomorrow.
