Astronomical Distance Measurements are Wrong-Galaxies are Far Closer to Earth in Our Much Younger Universe

Abstract

Raul Fattore

Since astronomical distance measurements are wrong, this work ought to serve as a possible cautionary tale for all astronomy and cosmology colleagues, as well as for astrophysicists in general.

If this study happens to be validated experimentally, which I’m confident it will be, the implications could be of such a magnitude that it will demand a great part of astronomy and cosmology to be rewritten. Unfortunately, this is not pleasant news.

The problem arose, perhaps due to the poor scientific observation of what Mother Nature shows us and how it works, that resulted in a huge, misdirected effort over many years.

Distance measurement of astronomical objects outside our solar system has been improved step by step through the years each time we wanted to reach more distant objects. This measurement improvement took the form of what we know as the “cosmic distance ladder.”

Every cosmic ladder technique performs best within a specific range of distances. But they are all impacted by what could be a significant flaw.

This study shows the cause of the potential flaw as well as how to measure astronomical distances in a more realistic way.

• Does light follow a rectilinear path?
• Are distance measurement methods of the “cosmic distance ladder” providing the right results?
• Are galaxies really receding?
• Do receding galaxies mean that the universe is expanding?
• Can we better determine the age of the universe?
• Could galaxies collide?

All these questions are answered in the development of this study according to the suggested theories.
