Thought For The Day

Space Junk

When most people talk about “space junk” they are referring to the “remains” of various items that mankind has fired into space in an attempt to become wise. It seems to me, the “wiser” we think we become, the more we establish our ignorance. The real “space junk” is what we hear from the “scientists.”

A map of the universe based on its oldest light is giving astronomers hope that they may be able to answer some of the deepest questions of the cosmos, including how it got started. “We have the best map ever of the cosmic microwave background, and that shows us what the universe was like 370,000 years after the Big Bang,” said Charles Lawrence, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California who is the lead U.S. scientist on the Planck project.

I learned a long time ago that when one starts with a faulty premise, and builds on it using information one cannot understand, the conclusion(s) reached is almost always wrong.

I have never been able to not “admire” those “scientists” who start with a huge explosion (the largest ever), which rips everything apart, and out of that comes order, progress, development, structure, and. . .you!

The “big bang” is not a synonym for God. Start with the Truth. From there you can get somewhere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scientists met this week at the University of California, Davis to pore over the treasure trove of data published two months ago from the European Planck spacecraft. The observatory measures what’s called the cosmic microwave background — light spread across the sky that dates from soon after the Big Bang that kick-started the universe.
