Astronomers discovered an ancient galaxy
string, SMM J2135-0102, using
an array of sub
millimeter antennae in the Chilean Atacama desert. The galaxy string is
certainly very ancient,
since it shines at 30% of the light frequencies of modern atoms. The
sub millimeter image shows
a string of nine ~ equally-spaced globs, like links on a chain.
Astronomers
photographed the area around the galaxy string with other telescopes.

follow how ejected chains
spread out, such in the nearby
active quasar 3C273. (Photo credit NASA. The picture on the left is the
3C273 jet imaged in optical - Hubble, the middle - X-rays from Chandra
and the right - imaged in radio frequencies from MERLIN). Over
the
years, the stream of bullets from this quasar spread out from a
dense source, like accelerating tracers from a machine
gun. Visibly, billions of spiral galaxies, over the course of cosmic
history, grew as bluish globs of
stars came out of the reddish cores of primordial galaxies. The stars
accelerated outward as
galaxies grew from the inside outward. Evidently our own Milky Way also
grew outwards since we observe thin long star-streams that span tens
of degrees of our sky. In 1994 astronomers used radio and X-ray
telescopes to observed the micro
quasar GRS 1915+105 within the Milky Way. It started out as two clumps
that grew into five,
which continued to spread apart at extremely high speeds over a period
of days.Scientists usually explain ejections with just-so stories
about invisible black holes or invisible
companion stars that allegedly caused the belching. The problem is that
billions of galaxies
cannot continue to grow from naked clumps to huge growth spirals unless
the properties of
matter are emerging. Western science has an epistemic problem with
historical
roots. It was
constructed on a single idea. Aristotle first pronounced this idea.
Fifteen hundred years later, the
Catholic scholastics simplified the idea as: the essence of substance
is fixed; the properties of
matter are NOT changing as matter ages. Upon this one idea, scientists
built a great mathematical
system of precision measuring. When modern scientists measure
distances, velocities, energies,
masses, gravity etc. they reference their measurements to perpetual
motion atomic clocks that
allegedly measure linear time. Yet the atoms in billions of
galaxies keep on accelerating
their clock rates throughout cosmic history. Atoms that shone at tiny
fractions of the light frequencies from modern matter must have been
scale models of modern atoms.
What is visible only fits biblical physics and a literal
biblical cosmic history. Repeatedly the Hebrew Bible states that the
heavens spread out in unbroken continuity.
Isaiah 40:26 "Lift
up your eyes on high, and see who
created these, the One who leads forth their host by number, He calls
them all by name; Because of the greatness of His might and the
strength of His power, not one is missing." In Hebrew, bringing out
of the host is an action
that continues in unbroken continuity. In
Hebrew, summoning the stars
by name is an action that is
incomplete. With optics, we see streams of stars coming
out at many ranges as billions of galaxies grew from the inside
outward. This could only
happen if the properties of matter continue to emerge, gradually change.
How completely the
God of the Bible will vanquish science.
