New Galaxy Redshift Distance Record (z=11) Seriously Threatens Big Bang models
A new record distance to a huge galaxy named GN-z11 has been observed and measured. It is dramatically farther than the previous distance holder. The constantly amazing Hubble Space telescope measured its distance spectroscopically at a Spectral line Redshift of … Continue reading

New Cosmology Book: “Relational Mechanics and Implementation of Mach’s Principle with Weber’s Gravitational Force”
The perpetually fascinating Andre Assis has just published a new cosmology book entitled — “Relational Mechanics and Implementation of Mach’s Principle with Weber’s Gravitational Force” by Apeiron, Montreal, 2014. (542 pages, 26 Chapters, 3 Appendices, 340 figures and 595 references.) … Continue reading
The Universe’s children: Born as lively teenagers and older than their parents!
(c) Copyright 2013 Louis MarmetThe WMAP estimate of the age of the Universe, 13.77 ± 0.06 Gyr (billion years), is challenged once again by two recent publications. The study of a nearby star shows that it is older than the … Continue reading
Closing in on Higgs Boson Certainty, But “Standard Model Higgs” Remains Distant
A Higgs Boson? – Likely “The preliminary results with the full 2012 data set are magnificent and to me it is clear that we are dealing with a Higgs boson though we still have a long way to go to … Continue reading
Oldest Spiral galaxy BX442 supports Hubble’s belief: Redshift does not mean expansion
(c) Copyright 2012 Louis Marmet A team of astronomers have reported the discovery of the oldest spiral galaxy known so far. What makes this discovery interesting is that this grand-design spiral galaxy already existed 3 billion years after the Big … Continue reading

CERN’s Neutrinos – Now Obeying Speed Limit
Its official – no “Faster than Light” Neutrinos at CERN. CERN (not OPERA) Research Director Sergio Bertolucci announced yesterday at a Japanese conference that they have re-run the Neutrino experiments on four different machines and all neutrinos seem to be … Continue reading
Elusive Dark Matter Idea Evaporating
NewScientist reports that “NASA’s FERMI satellite has confirmed a previous hint that there is more antimatter than expected coming from space. The bad news is that the result strongly almost certainly rules out Dark Matter as the source.”

Ethan Siegel Makes Science Errors, Corrects One
(Update: July 20, 2011 – Today Mr. Siegel corrected his article where it had wrongly claimed my article had quoted Professor P.J.E. Peebles “out of context.”) While Ethan Siegel generally does a good job illuminating science, he recently wrote a … Continue reading

Rubber Rulers: Fundamental Astrophysics Distance Tool Not Constant
News: A fundamental astrophysics distance tool called Cepheid stars are newly discovered to vary in brightness and mass with age. “Everything crumbles in cosmology studies if you don’t start up with the most precise measurements of Cepheids possible,” said Cepheid … Continue reading
