The Cosmic Background Radiation in the
DSSU
Prologue

... [M]any problems in science
cannot be conceptualized correctly unless one escapes the intellectual
straitjacket of prevailing scientific mythologies.
—Frank Sulloway[1] |

Before getting
into the DSSU (Dynamic Steady State Universe) explanation of the Cosmic Background Radiation I will briefly
discuss the officially sanctioned version. Probably the grandest
scientific mythology of our time is the story of the expanding universe.
The mythmakers who fabricated the story are admittedly uncertain regarding
the event or events surrounding the very beginning —the beginning of the
expanding universe. They all agree, however, that it all started with a once-in-a-universe-lifetime event —a spectacular display of plasmic fireworks. Now, some 15
to 20 gigayears later, the light has faded,
the temperature has cooled, the colour has reddened; the cataclysmic flash
of long long ago has transformed into the ubiquitous microwave
background radiation.
Notwithstanding the official consensus,
notwithstanding the profuse claims, and notwithstanding the scholarly
quality of the research literature, it is a scientific myth to say the universe expands.[2]
It is a scientific myth to say it expanded from a hot
plasmic ball.
And it is scientific myth-making to interpret the
microwave background radiation as the remnant radiation of the fire of
a genesis scenario.
How, you may wonder, did mainstream astrophysics manage to come up with
their fantastical misinterpretation?
For the answer we have to go back to the first half of
the twentieth century. During those years, astrophysicists, astronomers, and
cosmologists gradually adopted a universe model in which the entire
universe is expanding and is also bounded (that is, limited in extent).
(Why they adopted the expanding-universe myth is another fascinating story
which we don’t have time to cover here.) Given these two conditions, "expanding" and
"finite," it was quickly recognized that if the model universe
was allowed to run backwards in time it becomes evident that the universe
originated from some compact and dense state. Georges Lemaître’s concept of
the exploding ‘fireball’ universe was born and destined to become the ever
popular Big Bang (BB) model. Following Lemaître’s early ‘success’, other
cosmologists embraced the misconceived notion of an expanding universe and
did their own extrapolation into the cosmic past. When they allowed the
universe to run backwards in time they did not stop with the exploding
‘fireball’; they went even further and postulated the ultimate compact and
dense state —a point of infinite density, a singularity. With this
exciting new mystery, the Big
Bang model became even more popular.

Popularity, however, does not guarantee validity.
Critics of the model know that it contains a fatal flaw: something called
the cosmogony paradox. Within BB cosmology there is no logical way to
resolve the inherent contradiction of a universal genesis event. (See the
brief description of the three parts of the cosmogony paradox in the
adjacent textbox.) Nevertheless, this flawed cosmology is the one used to interpret
astronomical observations ... with disastrous consequences.
When extremely distant starlight was detected in 1963
& 1965 they said, no, that’s not the glow from ordinary stars, that’s the
fossil flash of light from the birth of the universe. It must be the feeble
remnant radiation of the spectacular display of Lemaitre’s ‘fireball’. And
they called it Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR).
What was it in their theory that prevented the
recognition of ordinary starlight (of ultra high redshift)? ... Understand
that the genesis, the fireball, and the whole-universe expansion thing, were
all part of a mythical evolutionary process. Observations had to be
interpreted accordingly. Stars, they said, could not have formed in the
early BB fireball —their existence would spoil the evolutionary sequence.
The model required that at some stage of the unfolding genesis the whole
universe was like a single super-big star with a temperature of 3000 K.
And so the afterglow of the creation of the universe became known as the
source of the ubiquitous CMBR.
In the unreal world of Academic Cosmology the CMBR
serves as ‘evidence’ of the mythical creation and evolution of the
universe.
In the natural DSSU Cosmology the CMBR is simply a
natural feature of the universe’s cellular structure.

In
our non-expanding Cellular Universe the source of the
cosmic background radiation is the starlight within a cosmic
shell having a radius of about 130 billion lightyears and concentric
with the Milky Way galaxy (shown greatly enlarged). The ultra distant
starlight from countless galaxies in the source-shell (highlighted
yellow arc) undergoes extreme redshifting as it travels through the
numerous voids of expanding space. The light is emitted at a typical
peak intensity corresponding to a temperature of 5800 K, then
redshifted by a z-factor of 3800 during the 130 billion lightyear
journey, and finally detected in its weakened form as the 2.7K
radiation —the cosmic microwave background radiation.
Keep in mind that while the greater part of space is expanding
the network of bubble universes remains, more or less, in a
static state —and we can say that the cosmic sphere (yellow
band) is neither expanding nor contracting and the objects it contains
are neither receding nor approaching. (The cosmic sphere cannot
be shown to scale; it would require a radius consisting of over 440
scaled bubble-universes). |
