If the universe is flat (which measurements back up), then the universe is not curved onto itself. So, the ad hoc explanation of inflationary theory is added. In physical cosmology, cosmic inflation, cosmological inflation, or just inflation, is a theory of exponential expansion of space in the early universe. The inflationary epoch lasted from 10−36 …
More about the uniformity of the CMBR: The cosmic microwave background is the afterglow radiation left over from the hot Big Bang. Its temperature is extremely uniform all over the sky. https://wmap.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_cosmo_fluct.html However, standard Big Bang theory does not account for all of the observed properties of the CMB. In particular, once we remove the …

If we cannot detect what’s beyond the CMBR, then there’s no evidence to support any scientific claims beyond that limit. We have reached the limits of science. Anything beyond that is purely theoretical. Here is the summary of my logic …

Trying to get back to cosmology, anyone want to give evidence to support we are not at the center of universe? Or is it by blind faith this is accepted? https://debatingchristianity.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1090559#p1090559 JoeyKnothead wrote: ↑Sat Sep 03, 2022 8:43 am Surely the fact that we orbit around the sun is clear demonstration we ain’t even the …

Personally, I think we should. Though Genesis …
