@AndrwMol @StartsWithABang I think in GR, if you model an orbit using the Schwarzschild metric, only the central mass bends spacetime, not the "test particle". Whether that's a photon, or the Earth, its affect on spacetime is considered null.

Are quasars really going extinct?

@TAndersen_nSCIr @StartsWithABang So... basically misrepresenting the truth.

It turns out precise observations of the Milky Way don't call for dark matter or MOND.

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@StartsWithABang @TAndersen_nSCIr By "GR" you mean Newton, right?

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@StartsWithABang Both the dark matter crowd and MOND minority are in denial about the GAIA results of a Keplerian decline in the Milky Way.

That says basically everything you need to know about their objectivity.

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@SeamusBlackley That's pretty optimistic. We saw "impossible early galaxies" way before JWST.

Bigger telescopes don't mean people give up their long cherished beliefs. They just get more convoluted reasons for being dogmatic.

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@SeamusBlackley How sure are you about that?

Seems like our tool (JWST) tells us we don't actually understand the universe.

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@skdh We know that "cosmic time" is (in the words of de Sitter) a "quasi-absolute" time. That seems like a problem for all FLRW-based models.

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@skdh Is there a possibility that time simply was slower in the past, rather than the universe expanding?

Seems like that would resolve "impossible early galaxy" problems and the like.

Galaxy formation theories have never not been a problem. Maybe it's not their fault?

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@DudeDarkmatter Doesn't the lack of dark matter in the Milky Way have any impact on any of this?

@StartsWithABang Science takes something simple and direct, and builds it into esoteric, complex things.

It also takes esoteric, complex things, and makes them simple and direct.

Edwin Hubble, first Big Bang skeptic?

Sidelined by two world wars?

@worldviewdesign Just curious, are you saying there is a hard problem of consciousness, or it's not even a problem?

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

Does the latest data actually show metallicity evolution with redshift?

Latest video.

Measuring metallicity, a history

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

@briankeating de Sitter's paper addresses some of this. The problem really comes from g_tt being constant.

Was there enough time for any of this to form?

They're probably not actually compact.

In the big bang theory, there is an angular diameter turnaround at z=1.6. Anything farther than that should start to appear larger on the sky, rather than smaller as we would expect.

That's probably not real.

[TechnoGAUNTLET @TechnoGAUNTLET]

Instead of space getting bigger... time getting faster would appear almost of the same:
