conventionally explained by the well-known “Doppler effect”. But according to the book “QED: The strange theory of light and matter” by Nobel Laureate Richard Feynman Redshift occurs due to the quantum mechanical propagation of photons. The Problem:Edwin HUBBLE discovered that light from distant stars exhibits longer wavelengths or reduced frequencies than that from similar radiation sources on Earth. All specific frequency lines in the electromagnetic spectrum of distant cosmic radiation sources appeared

Stars and galaxies began to form about one billion years following the Big Bang. It has since expanded from this hot dense state into the vast and much cooler cosmos we currently inhabit. Evidence for the Big Bang Theory American astronomer Edwin Hubble provided some of the greatest supporting evidence for the theory with his 1929 discovery that the light of distant galaxies was generally shifted toward the red end of the spectrum‚ this is called the Red Shift. This happens when stars are moving

“Suppose you suddenly hear a loud bang… and ask me‚ ‘what made that bang?’ and I reply‚ ‘nothing‚ it just happened.’ You would not accept that.” (Strobel‚ The case for Faith‚ 76) Humans have‚ and always will‚ wonder about the beginning of time. Some creation theories are more widely spread and known than others. A common definition of a ‘theory’ is a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural‚ in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual

The cosmological argument has been used for centuries to appeal to the existence of God‚ dating back to around 350 BC. Versions have been found in Plato’s Laws‚ 893-96‚ Aristotle’s Physics (VIII‚ 4-6)‚ and Aristotle’s Metaphysics (XII‚ 1-6). St. Thomas Aquinas‚ a Dominican priest‚ theologian‚ and philosopher‚ also included his version of the argument in Summa Theologica‚ along with four other contentions for the existence of God. The argument has been reasserted by Enlightenment writers such as Georg

Creation Theories “There are none who are as deaf as those who do not want to hear‚” Barry Leventhal once said this quote (Geisler and Turek). There are so many different creation theories that people have been talking about them for centuries‚ none have been one hundred percent proven but all are debatable. The problem with most professionals who study creation theories is they are very stubborn. Once somebody has a plausible theory in their head they do not listen to any other theories. This

within each bubble universe‚ there are infinitely many light cones‚ also called Hubble volumes. “A generic prediction of cosmological inflation is an infinite ‘ergodic’ space‚ which contains Hubble volumes realizing all initial conditions—including an identical copy of you about 1010^29m away‚”[v] says Max Tegmark‚ a professor of math/physics at MIT. Due to quantum fluctuations during the Big Bang‚ all of the Hubble volumes

2001 Hubble detected the element sodium in the lower part of the planet’s atmosphere. In 2003 hydrogen was detected in its upper atmosphere. In 2004‚ oxygen and carbon were detected in the upper atmosphere. Today‚ HD209458b is considered to be a part of a new class of extrasolar planets proposed‚ called the chthonian planets‚ as the cores of these giant planets are primarily comprised of evaporated gas.

How does Dickens criticize life during the Victorian times in the novel "Great Expectations"? Dickens uses satire to show the reality during Victorian times. What are three aspects of society‚ which Dickens satirizes? Three aspects of society‚ which he satirizes‚ are family‚ the class system and education. The first aspect of society‚ which Dickens satirizes‚ is the family. In Mrs. Joe’s household‚ it is evident that she is in control and Joe truly dreads her. This is ironic because during the 1800s
