Are We at the Center of the Universe? (new solution to Einstein's field equations may put us there!)

Obama thinks HE is at the center of the universe.

Seriously, I wouldn’t be surprised...

Everything about our solar system and our place in the galaxy/universe is to provide a habitable observation platform for humans.

Yeah, and don’t forget the Earth is flat and Obama was born in Hawaii.

This could very well support a number of creation cosmologists who place the milky way at or near the center of the Universe. To get an idea of why the Earth being at the center of the Universe is so controversial, see the 2002 article by creation cosmologist Dr. Russell Humphreys entitled The Battle for the Cosmic Center

Here’s the last line from the article:

“See? Just like it says in Genesis! The End.”

Thank God for science!

Preposterous.

I recently surmised that light we can see is dated and to some extent limited by the speed at which matter and light in the universe travels. Matter traveling in opposite directions at near the speed of light (as is surmised at the time of the big bang), may not appear at the correct current or past distance.

If this is true, there is a limited bubble of what we might be able to see directly. It also explains our odd theorized shape of the universe with respect to the origin of the theoretical big bang.

The big question.....Does motion affect the speed of light relative to a static point in space? Or is light speed truly constant?

That would make ours one of the youngest galaxies in the universe.

LOL...it is your fellow Evos who are finally coming around (albeit very nervously and with much trepidation) to what creation cosmologists have been saying for years: namely, the Milky Way may be at or near the center of the Universe. You may want to give #8 a read to show why your fellow Evos are so disturbed by our potentially privileged position in the Universe.

The Geocentric impulse is alive and well among those who worship their own ability to “properly” interpret scripture rather than God.

Since the universe is non-Euclidian it has no center.

I can’t see that it matters much. God can put us anywhere he likes. It’s not like we would be unable to see the splendor of His creation if we are off center.

Of course, creation cosmologists have been saying the evidence suggests that the Milky Way is at or near the center of the Universe for years, but now even the Big Bang evos (even though they are loathe to admit it) are flirting with the idea!

Light is subject to the Doppler effect. The issue is the inertial reference. The velocity of light is constant and absolute, but not relative to everything else.
