"Bob Anderson: Speed of light"


 
Bob,
I too have seen, and understand those articles. The implications of this are astounding to the "Billions and Billions" of years cosmology and astronomy claim as the age of the universe. Especially if one considers that the Speed of light has been decreasing along a bell curve, which is what most things do as they deteriorate. If you read the Genesis 1 account of light, and preclude that the speed was near instantaneous, and due to the fall it has degraded to the point it is now where it is on the flat part of the curve. If true, this would then shorten the number of lightyears that visible light has traveled from the stars to earth to possibly thousand depending on how steep that curve is. In order for all to visualize this. Let us say there is a star that is 50 billion light years away from earth using the constant Light year measurement of distance. We will call that point A, and Earth point C. Now another Star such as Alpha centauri which is 4 light years away we will call point B. A constant light speed would dictate that the universe must be 50 billion years old, but one that has the light speed as a degrading variable can say that only it took only 5000 years for that light to reach alpha centauri.
 
Do you see why mainstream science will never accept such a conclusion? Despite the fact that everytime a more precise measurement for light speed is found it always is less than previously measured. 
 
The following article discusses this a bit. They say it has meaning for the size of the universe, I say it has meaning to the age of the universe. That star that is 50 billion light years away, is still 50 Billion light years in distance away, but not 50 billion years in age away.
