- Big Bang Cosmology Believed: The Expansion was: Isotropic =
having the same properties in all directions Homogeneous = uniform
distribution of all properties This eliminates a center to the
universe, since everything is the same wherever you are.

- Hubbles Horror Such a condition would imply that we occupy a
unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the
ancient conception of a central Earth This hypothesis cannot be
disproved, but it is unwelcome and would only be accepted as a last
resort in order to save the phenomena. Therefore we disregard this
possibility the unwelcome position of a favored location must be
avoided at all costs... such a favored position is intolerable
Therefore, in order to restore homogeneity, and to escape the
horror of a unique position must be compensated by spatial
curvature. There seems to be no other escape. The Observational
Approach to Cosmology, 1937

when you look at CMB map, you also see that the structure that is
observed, is in fact, in a weird way, correlated with the plane of
the earth around the sun. Is this Copernicus coming back to haunt
us? That's crazy. Were looking out at the whole universe. Theres no
way there should be a correlation of structure with our motion of
the earth around the sun the plane of the earth around the sun the
ecliptic. That would say we are truly the center of the
universe.The new results are either telling us that all of science
is wrong and we're the center of the universe, or maybe the data is
simply incorrect, or maybe its telling us theres something weird
about the microwave background results and that maybe, maybe
there's something wrong with our theories on the larger scales. The

- 2010 Restudy of the Issue: Galactocentrism Eliminated there is
no obvious way to explain the observed correlations.Our studies
indicate that the observed alignments are with the ecliptic plane,
with the equinox or with the CMB dipole, and not with the Galactic
plane: the alignments of the quadrupole and octopole planes with
the equinox/ecliptic/dipole directions are much more significant
than those for the Galactic plane. Large-angle anomalies in the

- 2010 paper by Hirano and Komiya A widespread idea in cosmology
is that the universe is homogeneous and isotropic above a certain
scale. This hypothesis, usually called the cosmological principleis
thought to be a generalization of the Copernican principle that the
Earth is not in a central, specially favored position. However,
according to a Fourier analysis by Hartnett & Hirano, the
galaxy number count N from redshift z data (N z relation) indicates
that galaxies have pre- ferred periodic redshift spacings of z =
0.0102, 0.0246, and 0.0448 in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS),
with very similar results from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dF
GRS). These redshift spacings have been confirmed by mass density
fluctuations, the power spectrum P(z), and N pairs
calculations.

galaxies. The Non-Uniform Distribution of Galaxies from Daa of the

- Periodic Distribution of Quasars
- Slide 32
- Y. P. Varshni on Quasar Distribution The Earth is indeed the
center of the Universe. The arrangement of quasars on certain
spherical shells is only with respect to the Earth. These shells
would disappear if viewed from another galaxy or quasar. This means
that the cosmological principle will have to go. Also it implies
that a coordinate system fixed to the Earth will be a preferred
frame of reference in the Universe. Consequently, both the Special
and General Theory of Relativity must be abandoned for cosmological
purposes. The Red Shift Hypothesis for Quasars: Is the Earth the

- Jonathan Katz on Gamma Rays The uniform distribution of burst
arrival directions tells us that the distribution of
gamma-ray-burst sources in space is a sphere or spherical shell,
with us at the center. But Copernicus taught us that we are not in
a special preferred position in the universe; Earth is not at the
center of the solar system, the Sun is not at the center of the
galaxy, and so forth. Jonathan Katz, The Biggest Bangs:The Mystery

- Michelson-Morley Revisited: Einstein Admits STR Based on MMX
You, my honored Dr. Michelson, began with this work when I was only
a little youngster, hardly three feet high. It was you who led the
physicists into new paths, and through your marvelous experimental
work paved the way for the development of the Theory of Relativity.
You uncovered an insidious defect in the ether theory of light, as
it then existed, and stimulated the ideas of H. A. Lorentz and
Fitzgerald, out of which the Special Theory of Relativity
developed. Without your work this theory would today be scarcely
more than an interesting speculation; it was your verifications
which first set the theory on a real basis. Bernard Jaffe,
Michelson and the Speed of Light, 1960, pp. 167-168.
- Slide 38
- Einsteins 1923 Kyoto Speech Soon I came to the conclusion that
our idea about the motion of the Earth with respect to the ether is
incorrect, if we admit Michelsons null result as a fact. This was
the first path which led me to the special theory of relativity.
Since then I have come to believe that the motion of the Earth
cannot be detected by any optical experiment, though the Earth is
revolving around the sun. Yoshimasa A. Ono, Physics Today, 35 (8),
45 (1982).
- Slide 39
- Why Was Michelson-Morley So Important? Einsteins biographer,
Ronald W. Clark: In the United States Albert Michelson and Edward
Morley had performed an experiment which confronted scientists with
an appalling choice. Designed to show the existence of the etherit
had yielded a null result, leaving science with the alternatives of
tossing aside the key which had helped to explain the phenomena of
electricity, magnetism, and light or of deciding that the earth was
not in fact moving at all. Einstein: The Life and Times, p.
57.
- Slide 40
- Non-Moving Earth Was Unthinkable The problem which now faced
science was considerable. For there seemed to be only three
alternatives. The first was that the Earth was standing still,
which meant scuttling the whole Copernican theory and was
unthinkable. Einstein: The Life and Times, pp. 109-110.

- Slide 43
- Less Than One-Sixth of Earths Velocity The experiments on
relative motion of earth and ether have been completed and the
result is decidedly negative. The expected deviation of the
interference fringes from the zero should have been 0.40 of a
fringe the maximum displacement was 0.02 and the average much less
than 0.01 and then not in the right place. As displacement is
proportional to squares of the relative velocities it follows that
if the ether does slip past [the Earth] the relative velocity is
less than one sixth of the Earths velocity. Letter dated August 17,
1887, from the Rayleigh Archives, cited in Dorothy M. Livingston,
The Master of Light: A Biography of Albert A. Michelson, 1973, p.

- Slide 45
- Einsteins Special Theory of Relativity Based on False
Assumption Instead of saying that MMX did not detect the Earth
moving through ether, Einstein claimed that MMX did not detect
ether. He then made space a vacuum, dilated time and increased mass
by the Lorentz factor of 1 v/c.

- Shortening of Length and Time is made a Principle of Nature
Rather than Ether Expected Results Fixed Results
- Slide 47
- The bare fact is, MMX did measure an ether drift. It just didnt
measure a drift commensurate with an Earth moving around the sun at
30kms, but a movement of about 5km/sec.
- Slide 48
- In fact, All Experimenters Found Ether of about 2-10km/sec

- Slide 49
- 1925 Michelson-Gale Most Significant The observed displacement
of the fringes was found to be 0.230 .005, agreeing with the
computed value 0.236 .002 within the limits of experimental error.
All we can deduce from this experiment is that the earth rotates on
its axis. Fact: Michelson-Gale found a diurnal rotation within 98%
of 24 hours.
- Slide 50
- Proper Conclusion Must Be Since Heliocentrism requires both the
earth to revolve around the sun and rotate on an axis, but
empirical evidence shows only a rotation, Heliocentrism is
apparently falsified. The better solution is: the ether rotates
around a non- moving Earth. The universe, filled with either,
rotates around the Earth, giving Michelson-Gale a perfect result
and Michelson-Morley a negative result.
- Slide 51
- A Relative Irony Einstein invented Special Relativity to escape
the evidence from Michelson-Morley that pointed to a non-moving
Earth. He then had to invent General Relativity due to the
inadequacy of Special Relativity, General Relativity supports the
viability of geocentrism.
- Slide 52
- Einsteins GTR Agrees with Geocentrism Let K [the universe] be a
Galilean-Newtonian coordinate system [a system of three dimensions
extending to the edge of the universe], and let K [the Earth] be a
coordinate system rotating uniformly relative to K [the universe].
Then centrifugal forces would be in effect for masses at rest in
the K coordinate system [the Earth], while no such forces would be
present for objects at rest in K [the universe]. Already Newton
viewed this as proof that the rotation of K [the Earth] had to be
considered as absolute, and that K [the Earth] could not then be
treated as the resting frame of K [the universe]. Yet, as E. Mach
has shown, this argument is not sound. One need not view the
existence of such centrifugal forces as originating from the motion
of K [the Earth]; one could just as well account for them as
resulting from the average rotational effect of distant, detectable
masses as evidenced in the vicinity of K [the Earth], whereby K
[the Earth] is treated as being at rest.
- Slide 53
- Thus Einstein Said The struggle, so violent in the early days
of science, between the views of Ptolemy and Copernicus would then
be quite meaningless. Either CS [coordinate system] could be used
with equal justification. The two sentences: the sun is at rest and
the Earth moves, or the sun moves and the Earth is at rest, would
simply mean two different conventions concerning two different
CS.
- Slide 54
- G. J. Whitrow on MMX It is both amusing and instructive to
speculate on what might have happened if [the Michelson-Morley]
experiment could have been performed in the sixteenth or
seventeenth centuries when men were debating the rival merits of
the Copernican and Ptolemaic systems. The result would surely have
been interpreted as conclusive evidence for the immobility of the
Earth, and therefore as a triumphant vindication of the Ptolemaic
system and irrefutable falsification of the Copernican hypothesis.
