He says the universe is surrounded by a shell of cold plasma (?) which just "looks like" the CMBR. This implies to me a physical object, and for it to look like the CMBR it has to look the same in all directions, which implies that it's at the same distance in all directions, otherwise his idea about how the expansion of the universe works would mean that we seemed to be closer to it on one side than the other (and all the neutral hydrogen would have been blown out of our galaxy by the uneven photon pressure). So out of 1-400 billion galaxies we happen to be one of the few that is in the centre of the universe to the accuracy with which the isotropy of the CMBR has been measured.....in the Ross Model, of course. I await Mr Ross's explanation of this one with interest. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
