New Uranus Moon Discovered

Yahoo! News - Astronomers Find 21st Uranus Moon

Nasa provides links to Arp

This doesn't happen often, where mainstream astronomy would even acknowledge that there is a debate about what they consider the "basics", but on this page, you can surf around and find some fascinating discussions. For further reading on this image and the controversy you may want to read up on The Arp Peculiar Galaxy Club and this page providing some more evidence supporting Arp. Have fun reading!

Chandra shows the history of Jets blowing out of the center of Galaxy Chandra Discovers The History Of Black Hole X-Ray Jets - October 3, 2002. These are some awesome images produced by Chandra. Between Chandra and Hubble Space Telescope we've gotten to see some amazing things. It's too bad they only present the latest accepted theory rather than letting you know how well these last images flow with Arp's theory...

The Big Bang
One of the biggest problems with science is that scientists tend to make these big bold assumptions and then get dogmatic about it. We seem to need to find the "best theory" that fits the evidence rather than be content with saying "we don't know". And once a theory "gains favor" by the establishment, it is almost impossible to knock it down. When it comes to the Big Bang, there we make enormous assumptions. We've developed all this math and physics and assume that the laws that fit so well on this planet are also true for objects so far away. It has gotten to the point that scientists feel free to make mathematical calculations as to what things were like during the first moments of creation. And they have the gall to actually believe that their calculations actually approximate reality! That's why I prefer engineers to theoreticians. When an engineer builds something, either it works or it doesn't. A physicist doesn't actually have to be correct. Who can prove the past? One of the biggest assumptions made by the Big Bangers is that we can measure the accurate distances of celestial objects by virtue of their "redshift". Read up about Halton Arp if you have an open mind. And The Big Bang Never Happened by Eric Lerner is a great read too.
