Strange Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 15 minutes ago, Angelo said: Actually I said, "There were no observations that the universe was expanding at 5 times light speed 20 years ago." In fact, I was wrong. (This often happens,) we have never observed anything receding at 5 times light speed. The greatest distance we can ever observe corresponds to a recessional speed of just over 3 times light speed (if I remember correctly). And we have never observed anything at that distance. Mans when I said “always” I obviously meant “always since the expansion was discovered”. Not since the Stone Age. Because that would be silly.

Huckleberry of Yore Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) @Mordred, I followed your link and it appears to be broken. Do you have an alternative? Looks interesting. Thanks. http://www.einsteins-theory-of-relativity-4engineers.com/LightCone7/LightCone.html Edited January 11, 2020 by Huckleberry of Yore Added link.

Moderator Note Nobody here has claimed otherwise, and support for claims can’t just be a video - you need to summarize the material here (rule 2.7) Further, Einstein being wrong about one thing does not mean he was wrong on any other specific issue. IOW, a rebuttal of one claim does not rebut a different claim.

I just discovered it was broken 2 days ago.Jorrie still hasn't responded to my email. Edited January 11, 2020 by Mordred
MaximT Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Is that link could help: https://www.ibiblio.org/ebooks/Einstein/Einstein_Relativity.pdf
