Conical galactic outflows challenge standard gravitational theory
Taurus report comments upon research this past month on conical, bi-polar galactic outflows. These are consistent with the way that Cyclic Gravity and Cosmology (CGC) presents Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) as re-cycling matter in the universe. Standard theory does not explain the shape nor the reason for these outflows, while CGC does explain them.
One year on: How is the Hot Big Bang (HBB) GR-LCDM model faring given this past year's JWST observations?
Unexpected patterns in the redshift. Also: Monster Stars are latest GR-LCDM fantasy
GR-LCDM ignores periodicity in the redshift of observed galaxies because they can not explain it. They also can not explain how early galaxies have a normal distribution of metals. They try to deal with this by inventing another unobserved fantasy: Monster Stars.

Why did general relativity seem so convincing?
GR predicted the precession of Mercury, and similar time dilation and increase-of-mass, both in a gravity well and at relativistic velocity. CGC presents a better way to explain these things. We also take a look at some new papers that try to explain recent JWST observations.
What Einstein got right, and what he got wrong
I discuss the Michelson-Morely experiment and also Maxwell’s determination of the speed of light. Each of these presented a problem for physicists’ understanding of how light is propagated. I compare how Lorentz attempted to solve these problems, with how Einstein attempted to solve them. Next week’s episode will explain why I think that Lorentz will eventually be proven correct.
