Depending on where we look, the universe is expanding at different rates. Now, scientists using the James Webb and Hubble space telescopes have confirmed that the observation is not down to a measurement error.

Note from Pastor Kevin Lea:  The title of this article should be, “The Webb Telescope is Proving the Big Bang Theory to be Dead – Again!” – Subtitled: When will the text books and NOVA shows catch up and stop preaching their “Conspiracy Theories?”  In his 8^th edition of “In the Beginning – Compelling Evidence for Creation and the Flood,” Dr. Walt Brown gives a logical explanation for these Big-Bang-Theory-defying observations using physics and Scripture.  A flipbook version of the 8^th edition is available online at https://hpt.rsr.org/flipbook/.  See article, “Why is the Universe Expanding?” beginning on page 451 of the flipbook.

Astronomers have used the James Webb and Hubble space telescopes to confirm one of the most troubling conundrums in all of physics — that the universe appears to be expanding at bafflingly different speeds depending on where we look.

This problem, known as the Hubble Tension, has the potential to alter or even upend cosmology altogether. In 2019, measurements by the Hubble Space Telescope confirmed the puzzle was real; in 2023, even more precise measurements from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) cemented the discrepancy.
