Summary

See the Video! https://www.youtube.com/live/_45U7IjIJDk?feature=share In this episode Brian Keating and Allison Kirkpatrick respond to Rajendra Gupta’s controversial paper challenging the current model of the universe. What is the basis for this claim and why are media outlets and influencers promoting it so wildly? In addition to their detailed critique of Gupta's paper, they discuss galaxy formation, dark matter, and the scientific method. “Our newly-devised model stretches the galaxy formation time by a several billion years, making the universe 26.7 billion years old, and not 13.7 as previously estimated” Rajendra Gupta — Adjunct professor of physics in the Faculty of Science at the University of Ottawa Find Allison: https://kirkpatrick.ku.edu/ Press release: https://www.uottawa.ca/about-us/media/news/reinventing-cosmology-uottawa-research-puts-age-universe-267-137-billion-years The Paper: https://phys.org/news/2023-07-age-universe-billion-years-previously.html The paper is now available without a paywall from Gupta’s webpage: https://www.uottawa.ca/faculty-science/professors/rajendra-gupta See the Video! https://youtube.com/live/BFuW-zfH5RU Please join my mailing list 👉 briankeating.com/list for your chance to win a real meteorite 💥!

0:00.0	Galaxy formation and the Big Bang model are two separate ideas. You could have a Big Bang and you could not form galaxies at all because homology talks about like the big bang
0:17.0	inflation formation of matter possibly you know what makes dark matter and getting dark matter structures.
0:23.2	And then galaxy evolution talks about how the regular matter
0:27.3	that we see with our eyes turns into stars into galaxies
0:30.6	and eventually becomes the Milky Way. And those things don't necessarily predict each other.
0:35.0	There is no, there's a big astronomy.
0:37.0	I don't have a vested interest in the big thing being correct.
0:41.3	I go with what the data shows me and what evidence shows me and so if things are wrong they're wrong and that's and that's awesome.
0:51.0	Welcome to your listeners to this episode of Into the Impossible.
0:55.0	There are over 100 billion stars in our own Milky Way Galaxy.
0:59.0	Some astronomers estimate there are over 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe.
1:05.0	How did these mind-bendingly enormous structures get there?
1:09.5	Has it really been only 13.8 billion years since the big Bang? How do a steam cosmologists, like your
1:15.1	host Brian Heating, know the age of the universe? And why are Joe Rogin and
1:20.1	Elon and Elon and Elon Musk tweeting about it.
1:22.8	Has new data from the James Webb Space Telescope disrupted accepted cosmology?
1:27.8	Our Professor Keating and his guest, Professor Allison Kirkpatrick, part of a conspiracy to hide the truth.
1:35.0	In this episode, you're going to get a master class on how science has done
1:39.0	as Brian and Allison respond to Regendra Gupta's controversial paper challenging the current model
1:46.2	of the universe.
