Het heelal is onvoorstelbaar groot, en wordt steeds groter. Sterker nog: het groeit zelfs steeds sneller. Maar hoe weten we dat eigenlijk? Honderd jaar geleden zette Edwin Hubble de astronomie op zijn kop. Hij ontdekte dat sterrenstelsels van ons af bewegen en dat het heelal dus aan het uitdijen is.In deze aflevering neemt natuurkundige Diederik Roest (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen) ons mee het heelal in. Hij legt hij ons uit hoe Hubble tot zijn ontdekking kwam, wat het dopplereffect ermee te maken heeft, en wat dit alles zegt over de toekomst van ons heelal. 00:00 Wat kun je meten met een radiotelescoop?00:57 Hoe weten we dat de oerknal echt heeft plaatsgevonden?02:10 Wat is het waarneembare heelal?03:00 Hoe groot is het heelal?04:26 Wat ontdekte Edwin Hubble over het heelal?04:55 Wat is het Doppler Effect?05:50 Hoe weten we dat het heelal uitdijt?06:49 Waarom dijt het heelal versneld uit?07:20 Wat gebeurt er in de toekomst met het heelal?Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

No need to panic. Yet! We'll be fine for the next 4 or 5 billion years, but Andromeda is heading our way. The Andromeda Galaxy was the first object to be identified as being outside our own galaxy, and it introduced us to extragalactic astronomy. And that's not all. It can teach us more about dark matter and it could be home to billions of planets.It's a very cool neighbour, but one day - it's kinda going to move in!Follow Cosmic Coffee Time on X for some special contentX.com/CosmicCoffTimeEmail us! cosmiccoffeetime@gmail.comYou can request a topic for the show!

¿Qué tamaño tiene el universo? Durante dos milenios, la respuesta a esta pregunta parecía sencilla: el universo es el Sistema Solar, así que sólo tenemos que medir cómo de lejos están las estrellas de nosotros. Esta imagen, que fue el paradigma durante la Antigüedad y la Edad Media, empezó a mostrar signos de agotamiento en la Edad Moderna, cuando se descubrió que algunas estrellas se mueven, y que por lo tanto no pueden ser "puntos de luz pintados en la pared exterior del Sistema Solar". En el siglo XIX se consiguió, al fin, medir las distancias a algunas estrellas y se descubrió que estaban *realmente lejos*. El universo se había hecho grande de repente. A partir de entonces, el paradigma pasó a ser "el universo es la Vía Láctea", y se asumía que quizá el universo tendría miles de años luz de diámetro; a lo sumo, decenas de miles de años luz. Ésta es la idea con la que llegamos a principios del siglo XX, y el destino de esta idea también era ser refutada. Esto ocurrió hace exactamente 100 años, en los primeros días de enero de 1925, y hoy os contamos su historia. La historia de cómo el universo "creció" en nuestra mente y pasó a tener no sólo una galaxia, sino miles de ellas. El protagonista de esta historia es famoso, pero no por este descubrimiento. En estos momentos era un astrónomo perfectamente desconocido que se especializaba en medir distancias. Cuatro años después, en 1929, se convertiría en el descubridor de la expansión del universo. Estamos hablando, claro, de Edwin Hubble. Si os interesa este asunto, os contamos más sobre el tamaño del universo y de los objetos que hay en él en el capítulo s01e36 de Aparici en Órbita.

Kur'an-ı Kerim tam 1400 sene önce evrenin genişlediğinden haber vermektedir. Ayet-i kerimede şöyle buyrulmaktadır: “Biz göğü kudretimizle bina ettik ve şüphesiz biz onu genişletiyoruz.” (Zariyat s. 47) Kur'an'ın evrenin genişlemesinden haber veren ayetini bu şekilde tahlil ettikten sonra şimdi de bu konuda ilmin ne dediğine bakalım: 20. yüzyılın başlarına kadar bilim dünyasında hâkim olan tek bir görüş vardı. Bu görüş evrenin durağan bir yapıya sahip olduğu ve sonsuzdan beri aynı şekliyle süregeldiği görüşüydü. 20. yüzyıla kadar hiçbir bilim adamı evrenin genişlemesinden bahsetmemiş, bırakın bahsetmeyi belki bunu hayal bile etmemişti. Rus fizikçi Alexander Friedmann ve Belçikalı evren bilimci Georges Lemaitre 20. yüzyılın başlarında evrenin sürekli hareket hâlinde olduğunu ve genişlediğini teorik olarak hesapladılar. Bu gerçek 1929 yılında gözlemsel olarak da ispatlandı. Amerikalı astronom Edwin Hubble kullandığı dev teleskopla gökyüzünü incelerken, yıldızların ve galaksilerin sürekli olarak birbirlerinden uzaklaştıklarını keşfetti. Yıldızlar ve galaksiler sadece bizden değil, birbirlerinden de uzaklaşıyorlardı. Evrenin genişlemekte olduğu ilerleyen yıllarda yapılan gözlemlerle de kesinlik kazandı. Her şeyin sürekli olarak birbirinden uzaklaştığı bir evren ise “sürekli genişleyen” bir evren anlamına gelmektedir. Evrenin genişlemesini şişirilen bir balonun yüzeyi gibi düşünün. Balonun yüzeyindeki noktaların balon şiştikçe birbirlerinden uzaklaşmaları gibi, evrendeki cisimler de evren genişledikçe birbirlerinden uzaklaşmaktadırlar. 20. asırda ancak keşfedilebilen bilimsel bir gerçeğin bundan 14 asır evvel bir kitapta yazması ve bu hakikatin okuma yazma bilmeyen bir beşer tarafından haber verilmesi bu haberin Allâh (c.c.)'un vahyi olduğuna ve Kuran'ın Allâh (c.c.)'un kitabı olduğuna delalet eder.(www.mevlanatakvimi.com)

Particle physicist and science communicator Brian Cox takes questions on the nature of the universe, and shares his insights on the study of the sun, the upcoming 'planetary parade,' and the 100-year anniversary of Edwin Hubble's confirmation of galaxies beyond the Milky Way.

Transcript:Hello, this is Pastor Don of Christ Redeemer Church. Welcome to The Kingdom Perspective. Our God is a god of generosity and abundance. We see this in several ways. First is the limitlessness of His very being. God is not bound by time and space. He's not bound by anything outside Himself, at all. God needs nothing to exist for He is being itself, and so, He alone possesses the power to call into being that which does not exist. Secondly, God's abundance is demonstrated in all He has made. The universe we see is bigger than we can imagine. It's only been about a hundred years or so since Edwin Hubble discovered that our galaxy is one among others. Since that time, we've learned there are at least hundreds of billions of galaxies, each on average containing billions of stars. And we are discovering more all the time! This means that from our human vantage point, for all practical purposes, the universe God made is beyond limit. But all of this is backdrop to His greatest demonstration of generosity of all—the abundance of the riches of His grace toward us in Christ Jesus! When God decided to redeem fallen humanity, He spared no expense. He liquidated the full riches of heaven. He gave us the fullness of Himself in Christ. As Paul puts it in Ephesians, He has “blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 1:3). The God we serve is not stingy. Why in the world should we be? Something to think about from The Kingdom Perspective. “And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.”~Ephesians 2:1-7 (ESV)

Wenn wir in einer klaren Nacht in den Himmel schauen, können wir eine atemberaubende Vielzahl an funkelnden Punkten beobachten. Doch der Blick in den Sternenhimmel liefert immer nur zweidimensionale Bilder. Die dritte Dimension der Himmelsobjekte – also ihre Entfernung zur Erde – ist nicht so leicht zu bestimmen. Mit welchen Methoden Astronominnen und Astronomen den Kosmos dennoch vermessen und welche bedeutende Rolle das Bestimmen von Entfernungen im Weltall heute noch spielt, berichtet Hendrik Hildebrandt von der Universität Bochum in dieser Podcastfolge von Welt der Physik. *** Ein Beitrag von Julia Thomas, gesprochen von Ulrike Kapfer.

Sein Vater verbot ihm Football zu spielen und wollte, dass er Jura studiert. Erst nach dessen Tod kann Edwin Hubble sich seiner eigentlichen Leidenschaft widmen: der Astronomie – und wird zum einflussreichsten Astronomen des 20. Jahrhunderts.

Vor 100 Jahren entdeckte Edwin Hubble, dass es nicht nur eine Galaxie gibt, unsere Milchstraße – sondern das, was davor als „Nebel“ bezeichnet wurde, auch Galaxien sind. Jede Millionen Lichtjahre von uns entfernt und mit Milliarden von Sternen.

Send us a textJesaja 40:26 Kyk op na die hemel. Wie het die sterre gemaak? Hy laat hulle soos 'n leërmag uitmarsjeer, die een ster na die ander, en roep elkeen by sy naam. Met sy groot krag en mag sorg Hy dat nie een wegraak of verdwaal nie. (NLV) Dis hier! 2025 is hier! Kan ek jou op hierdie eerste dag van die nuwe jaar 'n waarlik geseënde jaar toewens? En, weet jy in hierdie deurmekaar wêreld, het nie een van ons ‘n idee wat hierdie jaar gaan oplewer nie.Op hierdie dag, presies ‘n 100 jaar gelede, het 'n man genaamd Edwin Hubble, 'n wetenskaplike referaat by 'n obskure konferensie aangebied. Maar, wat net nog 'n gewone dag was, net nog 'n kalenderblaadjie wat omgeblaai is, was op die ou end ‘n dag wat deur die Discover Magazine as "een van die mees buitengewone datums in die geskiedenis van die wetenskap" bestempel is.Deur noukeurige navorsing en waarneming het Hubble aangekondig dat daar ander sterrestelsels buite ons eie is; dat die Andromeda-nebula of newel, nie bloot nabygeleë gaswolke was nie, maar hele sterrestelsels wat deur die ruimte gewentel het. Dit was letterlik die dag wat die Heelal ontdek is.Ons kyk op na die miljoen of so sigbare sterre van die Melkweg, en weet dat hulle net 'n handvol van die ontelbare sterre in die heelal is – en ons weet nie eers waar dit eindig nie.Dit laat ons son, ons aarde, ons lewens, ons probleme so oneindig klein lyk, so ongelooflik onbelangrik, nie waar nie? En weet jy God … God het hulle almal geskep.Jesaja 40:26 Kyk op na die hemel. Wie het die sterre gemaak? Hy laat hulle soos 'n leërmag uitmarsjeer, die een ster na die ander, en roep elkeen by sy naam. Met sy groot krag en mag sorg Hy dat nie een wegraak of verdwaal nie. (NLV).Soms kan die jaar 'n bietjie wankelrig begin. Miskien tref ons padblokkades langs die pad. Maar die realiteit is dat die God wat daardie "leërmag" in die lug geskep het; Hy wat elke ster op sy naam ken, dieselfde God is wat jou ongelooflik liefhet. En Hy het die begeerte om jou deur alles wat in jou toekoms oor jou pad kom, te lei.Dit is God se Woord.

A hundred years ago today, the New York Times reported that Edwin Hubble had made a big discovery. He confirmed that many of the spiral objects known as nebulae were really separate galaxies – “island universes” of stars far outside the Milky Way. The story ran on page six, and it misspelled Hubble’s name. But it was the first public announcement of one of the greatest scientific findings of the 20th century. The discovery dramatically expanded the known universe. Instead of consisting of the Milky Way alone, the universe contained billions of galaxies, spread across billions of light-years of space. Hubble studied a class of stars in two spiral nebulae – Andromeda and M33. Called Cepheid variables, the stars pulse in and out. Measuring the length of its pulses and other details reveals the star’s true brightness. From that, astronomers can calculate the star’s distance. Hubble calculated that Andromeda was about 860,000 light-years away, and M33 a bit farther. Modern calculations show that they’re about three times farther than Hubble thought. Still, the concept was proved: the universe extends far beyond our galactic home – a concept revealed a century ago. Andromeda – now known as the Andromeda Galaxy – is in the east-northeast at nightfall. Under dark skies, it’s visible to the eye alone – 2.5 million light-years away. We’ll talk about the most famous Cepheid tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

How old is the universe—and how fast is it expanding? These are part of one of the biggest—and most contested—questions in science, and the answers could change our understanding of physics.In this episode, we talk with renowned UChicago astronomer Wendy Freedman, who's spent decades trying to solve these very questions. There are two ways to measure how fast the universe is expanding, also known as the Hubble constant; Freedman has done groundbreaking research to calculate this number using stars, but the problem is, her numbers don't match up with scientists using a different method. And the implications of that difference are massive, because it could indicate that our Standard Model of physics could be broken.Yet Freedman's latest research, using the powerful James Webb Space Telescope, might finally give us a clearer answer. In our conversation, we explore the age of the universe, the mysteries of dark matter and what all this could mean for the future of physics—and maybe even the discovery of life beyond Earth.

In this captivating episode of The Digest Facts, we dive deep into the science and mysteries behind some of the most fascinating phenomena in nature and the cosmos. First, we explore the hidden role of dreams in memory consolidation—revealing how your brain uses dreams to process emotions and strengthen your memories while you sleep. We'll answer questions like: Why do we dream, and what purpose do dreams really serve? Next, we'll uncover the fiery truth behind lightning strikes and the magical formations they create when they meet sand. Learn all about fulgurites—nature's own glass sculptures—and how they're formed by one of the most powerful forces on Earth. Finally, we'll take you on a journey to the stars, breaking down the discovery of our universe's expansion. Learn how astronomers like Edwin Hubble and scientists like Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson discovered that the universe is growing—and what that means for the future of space exploration and our understanding of the cosmos.

Wendy Freedman, the former director of the Carnegie Observatories and now distinguished professor at University of Chicago, has been a leading figure in observational cosmology and astronomy for over 30 years. I have known her as a friend and colleague, and have learned much from her over the years, and was very excited to be able to snag her amidst her busy schedule to record a podcast a week or two before the release of a new blockbuster result her team had produced. I am very happy that Critical Mass listeners will be among the first to get the detailed lowdown on the likely resolution of a problem that has been plaguing cosmology for the past decade. In the 1990's Wendy led a major international team of astronomers in carrying the Hubble Space Telescope Key Project. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was named in part because of this project, to establish the distance scale of the universe and measure its current expansion rate, a quantity not coincidentally called the Hubble Constant, first measured by Edwin Hubble in 1929. Since that time, different groups have measured this most important single observable in our universe and gotten widely different values. In the 1980's and early 90's two different groups got values that differed by a factor of 2, even though each claimed errors of less than 10%. In 2001, Freedman's team published their result, truly accurate to 10%, and the value, perhaps not surprisingly, fell right in the middle between the previous two discrepant values. All was good, until inferences based on the Cosmic Microwave Background, the most precise observable in modern cosmology suggested that measurements at a time when the universe was 300,000 years old, when extrapolated forward using the best current theory of cosmology today, would give a value that different from the HST value. The difference was statistically significant, and as time proceeded, and error bars got smaller, the discrepancy between the HST (and then the James Web Space Telescope (JWST)) measurement, and the CMB measurement got more significant. Was our current model of cosmology simply wrong?Such was the claim in various places over the past few years. Most recently, Wendy led a team to measure cosmic distances in 3 different ways using JWST, and as she describes in our discussion, it looks like the problem may now be solved, although not without leaving other mysteries.We talked about a lot more than this though. Wendy's background, what got her into astronomy, her experiences throughout her career, and her leadership in a new project building the Giant Magellan Telescope, what will be the largest telescope in the world in Chile. The discussion was as fun as it was exciting. Wendy is a wonderful popular expositor, and as always, I really enjoyed talking to her. Tune in to hear, for the first time, about the newest and most important recent result in cosmology from one of my favorite colleagues and a world class scientist.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 162: Edwin Hubble - REMASTER By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay From November 2, 2009. You might know the name “Hubble” because of the Hubble Space Telescope. But this phenomenal observatory was named after one of the most influential astronomers in modern history. Hubble discovered that galaxies are speeding away from us in all directions, leading to our current understanding of an expanding Universe. Let's learn about the man behind the telescope.

El ordenador cuántico promete revolucionar la sociedad con su capacidad para resolver en segundos problemas complejos que llevarían miles de años a los mejores supercomputadores. Sin embargo, aún se necesita superar grandes desafíos en términos de estabilidad, escalabilidad y corrección de errores. Hemos entrevistado a Ramón Aguado, investigador del CSIC en el Instituto de Ciencias de Materiales de Madrid, que participa en el desarrollo del Kitmón, un cúbit híbrido tolerante a los errores de coherencia que actualmente limitan la computación cuántica.El yacimiento de Casas de Turuñuelo está proporcionando abundante información sobre la misteriosa civilización tartesia. Sara Adán nos ha informado del hallazgo de grabados de guerreros, con testimonios de Esther Rodríguez y Sebastián Celestino, directores de la excavación. Rusia ha encontrado las mayores reservas de petróleo del mundo en la Antártida, un continente –como nos ha recordado Javier Cacho-- para la paz y la cooperación internacional en el que está prohibida cualquier explotación minera. Con Jesús Martínez Frías hemos hablado de la importancia del Patrimonio Geológico y la necesidad de su preservación. Con nuestro matemago Fernando Blasco hemos jugado al juego de la coincidencia, que ya fue objeto de estudio del gran Leonhard Euler en el s. XVIII, y nos ha comentado que los inicios de la probabilidad estuvieron en partidas de cartas. Eulalia Pérez Sedeño nos ha acercado a la biografía de María Luisa Aguilar Hurtado, la primera astrónoma profesional de Perú. Fundadora de los “Viernes astronómicos” y el “Seminario de Astronomía y Astrofísica”, tuvo que sortear resabios coloniales, una gerontocracia muy dura y un machismo muy oscuro en las instituciones. En nuestros destinos con ciencia, hemos viajado con nuestra compañera Esther García al observatorio astronómico del Monte Wilson (EEUU), donde Edwin Hubble demostró la existencia de otras galaxias más allá de la Vía Láctea y la expansión del Universo.Escuchar audio

sm7 - Hace ahora cien años, Edwin Hubble descubrió que el universo se estaba expandiendo. El astrónomo observó que casi todas las galaxias se alejaban de la Vía Láctea, y que las más lejanas lo hacían más deprisa. Pero, a finales del siglo xx, aquel hallazgo revolucionario fue sucedido por otro aún más asombroso: que la expansión cósmica se estaba acelerando. Durante largo tiempo, los científicos supusieron que la atracción gravitatoria frenaría la velocidad a la que se hincha el universo. En 1998, sin embargo, dos equipos de astrónomos que estaban estudiando supernovas (explosiones estelares que sirven como jalones cósmicos y que permiten medir distancias) constataron justo lo contrario.

À la fin des années 1920, les astronomes Georges-Henri Lemaître et Edwin Hubble mettent au point deux théories qui sont à la base de notre conception actuelle de l'univers : le Big-Bang et l'expansion de cet univers.Depuis cette époque, les spécialistes, forts de connaissances plus approfondies sur la composition de l'univers, ont affiné ces notions.Ils ont pu ainsi apporter de très intéressantes précisions sur la croissance de l'univers, qui n' a pas cessé de s'agrandir depuis le Big-Bang, voilà environ 13,8 milliards d'années.Ce qui est nouveau, d'après les recherches des astronomes, ce n'est pas l'expansion, qui semble confirmée par les observations, mais la vitesse à laquelle elle se produit.Ces travaux se fondent donc sur une étude plus précise de la composition de l'univers, et de son rôle dans le rythme de l'expansion.En effet, l'univers ne serait composé que de 5 % de matière "baryonique", autrement dit la matière telle que nous la concevons. Le quart serait fait d'une "matière noire", dont l'existence n'a jamais été constatée.En fait, la présence de cette matière hypothétique est nécessaire pour expliquer certains calculs faits par les astronomes. Le reste de l'univers, soit environ 70 %, serait composé d'une "énergie sombre", qu'on ne connaît guère mieux et dont l'existence n'est, là encore, que supposée.Or, la matière baryonique et la matière noire tendraient à ralentir l'expansion de l'univers, tandis que l'énergie sombre contribuerait à l'accélérer. Or, on le voit, c'est cette dernière qui remplit le plus l'univers.Est-ce à dire que l'univers va grandir plus vite ? Ce n'est pas aussi simple. Grâce aux données fournies par un instrument très sophistiqué, installé en Arizona, et qui étudie la fuite des galaxies, on peut plutôt conclure à une différence de rythme dans l'expansion de l'univers.D'après ces observations, en effet, l'univers aurait grandi très vite environ six milliards d'années après le Big-Bang, puis cette expansion se serait ralentie à une époque récente. Ce qui tendrait à prouver, comme le disent les spécialistes, le "comportement dynamique" de l'énergie sombre. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Expanding and lifting. The Hubble – Lemaitre Law: v=H0D V (Velocity) equals D (distance) times H-nought (the Hubble-Lemaitre constant).   This formula describes the relationship between the distance of galaxies and the velocity at which they are receding from us. Put simply it says the farther away a galaxy is, the faster it is receding.   This relationship has been widely accepted as evidence that the Universe must be expanding, with the notable exception of Edwin Hubble who was happy there was a relationship between the redshift of galaxies and their distance, but never really accepted it as evidence that the whole Universe was expanding.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Have you ever wondered what was there before our Universe? While scientists are looking for the answer to the most difficult question in history, let's find out what they've come up with so far. In the 20th century, we've shed light on this mystery. All thanks to this man — Edwin Hubble. One day, on Mount Wilson in Southern California, he aimed his telescope at the sky and found out that these random clouds of gas flying everywhere were actually… other galaxies.

La primera observación registrada de una galaxia ocurrió en 964 por el astrónomo persa Abderramán al-Sufi, quien observó en la constelación de Andrómeda "una pequeña nube". Esas "nubes" fueron "galaxias" tras el descubrimiento de Edwin Hubble de varias estrellas individuales en esa galaxia de Andrómeda. Durante años se creyó que una galaxia siempre estaba formada por un gran conjunto de estrellas, pero la cosa ha cambiado. En el siglo XXI las estrellas son un componente habitual, pero no esencial de las galaxias. Desde hace 25 años los científicos están empezando a descubrir "islas" de otro tipo: grandes nubes de gas, como cualquier galaxia, pero tienen muy pocas estrellas, así que son nubes muy oscuras. De estas galaxias oscuras hablamos con Alberto Aparici y Nacho Trujillo, investigador en el Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias y en la Universidad de La Laguna. 

Malcolm Clemens Young Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, CA 2D87 Christmas Eve (Proper 1) 7:30 p.m. Eucharist Sunday 24 December 2023 Isaiah 9:2-7 Psalm 96:1-4, 11-13 Titus 2:11-14 Luke 2:1-20   “Do not be afraid; for see – I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people” (Lk. 2)   “We stand with one hand on the door looking into another world, / That is this world.” The farmer poet Wendell Berry (1934-) wrote these words about Christmas in a poem called “Remembering that It Happened Once.” [1] Here's the whole poem.   “Remembering that it happened once, / We cannot turn away the thought, / As we go out, cold, to our barns / Toward the long night's end, that we / Ourselves are living in the world / It happened in when it first happened, / That we ourselves, opening a stall / (A latch thrown open countless times / Before), might find them breathing there, /”   “Foreknown: the Child bedded in straw, / The mother kneeling over Him, / The husband standing in belief / He scarcely can believe, in light / That lights them from no source we see, / An April morning's light, the air / Around them joyful as a choir. / We stand with one hand on the door, / Looking into another world / That is this world, the pale daylight / Coming just as before, our chores / To do, the cattle all awake, / Our own white frozen breath hanging / In front of us; and we are here / As we have never been before, / Sighted as not before, our place / Holy, although we knew it not.” [2]   On Christmas Eve we stand between worlds. And for a moment, if we pay attention, we see our place as holy. We do not always experience our life this way. We inhabit a confusing world full of terror and distraction. These days wars in the Middle East, Ukraine and Africa cast a long shadow over the human family. Every year we become even more aware that our indifference is endangering the planet itself.   Other forms of sadness threaten to overcome us. Perhaps you have been lying awake at night because you have a child who is in serious trouble. Or perhaps, you have suddenly found yourself alone in the world to face the storms of life without someone to lean on. Or perhaps some kind of addiction holds you in its grip, or you are looking back to brighter years that you know are gone forever and will never come back. [3]   To the shepherds, to all of us tonight the angel announces a sign. A young woman is having a baby called Emmanuel which means God with us. This is the message: we are not alone or abandoned. The sign shows that joy is at the heart of being alive. Because of this baby, the world is being turned upside down. Violence is not at the center of reality, love is. [4]   Seeing the world like this may sound easy, but there is a catch. In order to experience this joy we have to be satisfied with living in a mystery. This does not mean that we have to believe what is unbelievable, that we have to give up critical thinking, or that we are not allowed to have doubts. It's just that the infinite will not fit into our finite minds. And so our existence is made strange by the kind of creatures we are. We long for the infinite but can never really control or comprehend it.   In the way that a mother gives birth to her child, we become who we are by giving ourselves away. For me this is what makes being a parent such a transcendent experience. Taking care of our children, walking in the oak woodlands, reading stories at sunset after a warm bath, all this made joy an even more central part of my life. Joy is that experience of being called into existence as a kind of creature who is different than God and yet who has a share in the mystery of God. We are made for this delight. [5]   Our friend and Dean Emeritus Alan Jones used to remind us that in Christianity the, “things of God can be handled and held.” In fact, “[T]he things of God can be kissed and caressed.” He talks about how strange it is that Christ enters into history in order to offer us the gift of peace. And that for this reason the true Christ can never assume the shape of violence. The baby and her child are a sign of three great truths. First, the world is a gift. Second the nature of the gift is communion (for all people and the world). Third, this true communion celebrates diversity and difference. Let me say only a little more about each of these. [6]   1. The Gift. Ninety-nine years ago this week the astronomer Edwin Hubble announced the discovery of the first galaxy outside our own Milky Way. By 2019 we believed that there were 200 billion galaxies. Now after the New Horizon space probe we think there are 2 trillion galaxies. [7] This is the world we inhabit. This is the generosity of God.   One of my favorite Christmas moments happened years ago, after everyone went home from the midnight service. I turned off the lights and closed up my old church. In the cold, alone on that holy night with the stars, with trillions of worlds stretching across the heavens, I felt God with me, overwhelmed by the miracle that we exist. All of this beauty, everything that is good, is a gift from God. [8]   And this is the peculiarity and the scandal of our faith. It is not chiefly about big ideas or philosophical principles but a God who is particular. At Christmas we celebrate and take delight in the God who can be touched, who can be held as a baby. [9] At the Christmas pageant this morning we asked children what they wanted to pray for. A boy said, “For the fighting to stop.” Loud applause followed. A girl announced that she wanted her neutered cat to have kittens. Another prayed that a particular candidate would not be elected as president (also to enthusiastic applause). But the most beautiful thing of all was Sinclair our baby Jesus sitting on her father's lap giving us such joy.   2. Communion. I've been reading Jill Lepore's book These Truths, a one volume history of America. American history always fascinated me but there is so much that I missed. [10] She writes about the Emancipation Proclamation that freed enslaved Americans and what it felt like for them. “In South Carolina the proclamation was read out to the First South Carolina Volunteer Infantry, a regiment of former slaves. At its final lines, the soldiers began to sing, quietly at first, and then louder: My country ‘tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing!”   She goes on, “American slavery had lasted for centuries. It had stolen the lives of millions and crushed the lives of millions more... It had poisoned a people and a nation. It had turned hearts to stone… The American odyssey had barely begun. From cabins and fields they left. Freed men and women didn't always head north.”   “They often went south or west, traveling hundreds of miles by foot, on horseback, by stage and by train, searching. They were husbands in search of wives, wives in search of children, mothers and fathers looking for children, children looking for parents, chasing word and rumors about where their loved ones had been sold, sale after sale, across the country. Some of their wanderings lasted years. They sought their own union, a union of their beloved.” This year at Christmas as I'm imagining the joy of those reunions, I'm reminded how we are made for communion.   3. Diversity. Finally let me say a short word about diversity. The two largest religious denominations in America do not permit women to be ordained as leaders of churches. This week Pope Francis gave permission for Roman Catholic priests to give same sex couples blessings in private. He said that these should not in any way look like marriage ceremonies. [11] In our church we have women, trans, gay and lesbian people serving at every level of ordained ministry. We believe that God is present when same sex couples get married here in church. I have experienced such a deep sense of joy at their ordinations and weddings. I wish every person could see it.   We are all different from each other. But this is not a problem. We should not feel threatened by this. We are not competing. There is not one of us that has gotten it all right. Our diversity is part of God's gift to us. We are one human family.   What happens when we do not receive the world, communion with each other and diversity as a gift? The theologian Martin Luther (1483-1546) says that we become incurvatus se, that is curved in on ourself. We refuse to be fully alive. We are cut off from each other and the very sources of what should be our greatest happiness. We become distanced from our true self. This is a kind of hell that we all experience in varying degrees. In this condition we become walled off from joy.   But tonight is holy. It is time to make peace with the mystery and come back home. For many years the famous religion scholar Huston Smith was a member of my grandfather's congregation in Massachusetts. He said that churches waiting for Christmas are like a child with her face pressed against the window on a cold winter night. Then she runs through the household saying, “Daddy's home. Daddy's home.”   Tonight we share this joy in our Christmas carols and in stories whose meaning can never be exhausted. The world is not made of atoms but of stories. Our stories are imperfect ways of expressing an unsayable encounter with the infinite God. Tonight we are here as we never have been before. There is joy at the very heart of being alive. As a mother gives birth to her child let us become who we are by giving our self away. Because in these 2 trillion galaxies, the things of God can be kissed and caressed. The world is a gift. The nature of that gift is communion. True communion celebrates diversity and difference. We stand with one hand on the door looking into another world…”

No episódio de hoje do Horizonte de Eventos vamos contar a história do astrônomo Vesto Slipher, o Vesto foi um dos astrônomos mais importantes da história, ele trabalhou no Observatório Lowell, com um dos primeiros espectrógrafos da história, e com isso ele conseguiu medir o espectro das galáxias, e usando o Efeito Dopler ele conseguiu determinar a velocidade com a qual as galáxias estão se afastando de nós. Essas medidas juntamente com as medidas de distâncias feitas pelo Edwin Hubble no Observatório de Monte Wilson, foram responsáveis por montar um dos gráficos mais importantes da astronomia, que nos mostrou que o universo está em expansão.

Los Nobel son los premios más prestigiosos en ciencias, pero como todos los premios también tienen sus errores, omisiones e incluso injusticias. Mucha gente tiene en mente a autores que deberían haber recibido el Nobel de Literatura pero la fortuna les fue esquiva: hoy hablamos de sus equivalentes en el mundo de las ciencias. ¿De quién se olvidaron, incomprensiblemente, los galardones de Física, Química y Medicina? Esta pregunta, desde luego, daría para un programa mucho más largo que nuestra sección, pero hoy os ofrecemos un primer bocado a este tema: una selección de científicos y científicas que merecían el máximo reconocimiento en su campo pero nunca lo recibieron. Sus nombres dan vértigo de lo grandes que son: hablamos de gente como Edwin Hubble y Dmitri Mendeleyev. Los otros "no premiados" de los que hablamos, por si queréis buscar información sobre ellos, son Oswald Avery, Colin MacLeod y Maclyn McCarty, por descubrir que la información genética reside en el ADN, Lise Meitner, por ser una de las descubridoras de la fisión nuclear, y Vera Rubin, por sus investigaciones de las curvas de rotación de galaxias, que llevaron a establecer la existencia de la materia oscura. Y también hablamos, desde luego, de la polémica entre Santiago Ramón y Cajal y Camillo Golgi. Este programa se emitió originalmente el 18 de octubre de 2023.

Sean Kief and Susan Thompson discuss the history of Spesutie Island at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, from Native American use to it's place in the Space age, and relate some of the spooky tales associated with APG's Hidden History.

It's not often that a single star transforms our view of the universe. But it happened with a star that was photographed 100 years ago tonight. The star proved that there's more to the universe than just the Milky Way Galaxy — much more. The star is known today as M31-V1. It's in M31, the Andromeda Galaxy. A century ago, M31 was called the Andromeda Nebula. Many astronomers thought it was a mote of matter inside the Milky Way. Others thought it was a separate galaxy — an “island universe” of billions of stars. On the night of October 5th of 1923, Edwin Hubble snapped a picture of a small segment of M31. He identified three stars that had grown much brighter since the last time he looked at them. Follow-up observations showed that one star's brightness changed from night to night. That star was a Cepheid — a supergiant star that's unstable. It pulses in and out like a beating heart. The duration of the pulses revealed the star's true brightness. And from that, Hubble calculated its distance — a million light-years. Studies of other Cepheids confirmed the distance. So M31 had to be well beyond the Milky Way — vastly expanding our understanding of the universe. Modern observations put the distance to M31 at two-and-a-half million light-years. And the galaxy is visible to the unaided eye. Under dark skies, it looks like a faint smudge of light, in the north-northeast at nightfall.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

BTD - La ley de Hubble-Lemaître publicada en inglés en el siglo xx por Edwin Hubble en 1929, y descubierta y publicada en francés en 1927 por George Lemaître1​, anteriormente llamada ley de Hubble,2​ 3​ es una ley de la física que establece que el corrimiento al rojo (velocidad de recesión) de una galaxia es proporcional a la distancia a la que está, lo que es lo mismo que expresar que cuanto más lejos se encuentra una galaxia de otra, más rápidamente aparenta alejarse con respecto a ella.

Watch the full video on youtube here: https://youtu.be/b3Tx1g8gKmY Other Episode with Adam Riess: https://youtu.be/WZUqzHRuzhA Adam Riess is a renowned astrophysicist recognized for his groundbreaking research on the expansion of the universe with the 2011 Nobel Prize in physics Through extensive measurements and collaborations with other scientists, Riess discovered an intriguing tension in the size of the universe's expansion, which has steadily grown over the past decade. These results, reaching a significant level of more than 5 sigma, revealed an unexpected phenomenon: the rate of the universe's expansion seems to differ based on whether one starts from the beginning shortly after the big bang or from the present. This unexpected autonomy in the expansion challenged the traditional cosmological model, which tells the story of the universe's evolution from its inception to its current state. Riess's research has generated suspicion among many scientists, leading them to question whether the cosmological model itself needs revision. In his pursuit of unraveling the mysteries of the universe, Riess reminds us that advanced technology may often be mistaken for something magical. On this episode of INTO THE IMPOSSIBLE Riess explores the challenges of measuring distances in the universe and the discrepancies between measurements of the expansion rate of the universe first observed by Edwin Hubble namesake of The Hubble Constant, a pillar of cosmology. From the use of parallax (dating back to ancient Greece) to the use of Cepheid variables and Type 1a supernovae, Riess takes listeners on a journey through the cosmic distance ladder and the problem of the variation in the measurement of the Hubble constant known as the Hubble Tension. The possible role of dark energy is discussed, opening up new avenues for scientific investigation. Riess shares insights into the concept of the cosmological principle, and how it is challenged by the Hubble Tension. The conversation touches on peak experiences, the awe-inspiring encounters with nature that trigger moments of gratitude and curiosity, and the importance of sustaining these feelings in scientific exploration. Riess highlights the empirical nature of observational cosmology and the need for continued data collection and refining of models. Black holes, gravitational lensing, and Adam's motivations to pursue precision science are discussed.

Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu continue our exploration into the poetry of the stars with Part 2 of our episode featuring poet/astronomer/cosmologist Dr. Yun Wang and poet/author Midge Goldberg, editor of “Outer Space: 100 Poems.” We pick up right where we left off in Part 1, with a discussion of standard candles and how Edwin Hubble used Cepheid Variable Stars to determine the distance to Andromeda – incorrectly, as Chuck explains. We then find out that Yun is working on not one, but two upcoming space telescopes: The Euclid Space Telescope launching in July 2023 and the Roman Space Telescope, a Hubble-class space telescope named after Nancy Grace Roman, NASA's first Chief of Astronomy, launching in 2027. As with Part 1, The LIUniverse couldn't possibly have two poets as guests on the show without a little poetry reading and analysis. Allen kicks it off by reading a Walt Whitman poem, “A Noiseless, Patient Spider.” Midge follows up with a reading excerpted from “My God, It's Full of Stars” by Tracy K. Smith, one of the first poems she chose to put into “Outer Space: 100 Poems.” Yun reads both the original Chinese version and then the translation of a poem by Su Dongpo, the Song Dynasty poet who is the third of the greatest poets in Chinese history, followed by an English translation. (The group discussed the other two, Du Fu and Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty era in China, in Part 1 – just another reason to go and listen if you haven't already, poetry fans!) Chuck reads from a poem by Salvatore Quasimodo, the Nobel prize-winning Italian poet, after which he reminds us all about Commander Data's unfortunate attempt at poetry about his cat Spot on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Allen begrudgingly reads the first couplet, and Midge describes what happens when AI writes a sonnet. Finally, Charles ends the episode with a reading and discussion of “When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer” from Walt Whitman's “Leaves of Grass,” which Yun explains she doesn't hate anymore, but still doesn't love. If you'd like to know more about Dr. Yun Wang and her many scientific and poetic publications, see her bio page at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech): https://web.ipac.caltech.edu/staff/wang/.

En 1929, l'astronome américain Edwin Hubble annonce que les galaxies s'éloignent les unes des autres à une vitesse proportionnelle à la distance qui les sépare. Autrement dit, plus une galaxie est loin de nous, plus elle semble s'éloigner rapidement.Cette découverte par l'observation implique que l'univers soit en expansion avec une vitesse de fuite évaluée aujourd'hui à environ 74 kilomètres par seconde et par mégaparsec.Toutefois, George Lemaître, un prêtre et physicien belge, avait prédit théoriquement cette loi de récession des galaxies, c'est à dire le fait qu'elle s'éloigne les unes des autres, dès 1927, c'est-à-dire deux années auparavant. Mais sa publication en français était passée inaperçue !Comment cette expansion a-t-elle été mise en évidence ?Grâce à l'effet Doppler. Cet effet prédit que le mouvement d'un corps affecte les ondes lumineuses, ou sonores, qu'il émet. Ce phénomène est par exemple observable lorsqu'une ambulance vous dépasse. La sirène est plus aiguë lorsqu'elle se rapproche et plus grave lorsqu'elle s'éloigne. Dans une échographie Doppler, l'image du sang qui s'éloigne de la sonde à ultrasons est colorée en rouge et celui qui s'en rapproche en bleu.De la même façon, pour évaluer la vitesse d'éloignement d'une galaxie, les astronomes mesurent le décalage vers la couleur rouge de la lumière qu'elle émet, grâce aux techniques spectroscopiques.Dans le détail, la lumière observée est décomposée en ses différentes longueurs d'onde ou couleurs à l'aide d'un spectromètre, puis les raies caractéristiques des différents éléments chimiques sont identifiées. Ensuite le décalage spectral vers le rouge est évalué en comparant la longueur d'onde observée pour un atome sur cette galaxie avec celle du même atome sur terre. On parvient de la sorte à mesurer le décalage vers le rouge.C'est ainsi que l'on a observé un décalage vers le rouge chez les objets astronomiques lointains. Et donc leur éloignement, témoin de l'expansion de l'univers.Et il y a même encore plus étonnant ! Des observations plus récentes sur des supernovæ ont permis à trois lauréats du prix Nobel de physique 2011 de prouver que l'expansion de l'univers se poursuit, mais qu'elle s'accélère aussi !

(Galactic image in the thumbnail - NASA - the James Webb Space Telescope Cartwheel galaxy, previously imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope). Galaxies, we might say, are kings of the cosmos. Their splendor and size has really only come to be known in the last 100 years, since Edwin Hubble finally determined that Andromeda, and many other galaxies just like it, were not just nebulae in our own universe. Hubble's telescope, the Hooker Telescope atop Mt. Wilson in California, was the largest of its day. But it's main mirror was only 100 inches. We say "only" because the collective surface area of the new James Webb Space Telescope, made up of 18 individual mirrors, is 21 feet, four inches!  And what it has thus far captured is nothing short of astonishing, like being in the presence of royalty. On this episode, Wayne and Dan discuss some unsolved mysteries of star and galaxy formation and just how Webb's new galactic discoveries only serve to deepen the mystery and threaten to make scientists completely rewrite their assumptions about how stars and galaxies form!

The Coma Cluster consists of more than a thousand galaxies, all moving through space together. Yet most of the cluster is invisible — it consists of dark matter. It produces no energy, but its gravity pulls on the visible matter around it. The Coma Cluster provided the earliest evidence of dark matter. It was first suspected by Fritz Zwicky, who was born 125 years ago this week. We'll have more about him tomorrow. Zwicky was studying observations of the Coma Cluster made by Edwin Hubble, the namesake of Hubble Space Telescope. He found that many of the galaxies were moving too fast to be held by the gravity of the cluster's visible matter. He surmised that some form of “dark matter” was contributing to the cluster's total gravity. But there were so many uncertainties in the observations that other astronomers didn't buy it. It wasn't until the 1970s that enough evidence began to pile up to convince most astronomers. Today, we know that dark matter makes up about 85 percent of all the matter in the universe. Yet we still don't know what it is. The leading idea has been that it's a heavy subatomic particle. But searches have all come up empty. So new searches are focusing on much lighter particles — perhaps the “missing mass” of the universe. The Coma Cluster is in the constellation Coma Berenices, which climbs into good view in the northeast by 10 or 11 p.m. Small telescopes reveal several of the cluster's galaxies.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Join Jeff Zweerink and David Block as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence.   Hubble's Theft & Other Scientific Inaccuracies The data showing the expansion of the universe is usually referred to as Hubble's law. However, historical studies show that astronomer Edwin Hubble used others' research without proper attribution in writing his paper on the subject in 1929. In 2018, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) officially voted to rename it the Hubble-Lemaître law since astronomer Georges Lemaître published a paper on the same subject in 1927, two years before Hubble. We will discuss the implications and apologetic value of this development as well as other common science/faith related misconceptions.   References: Belgian Priest Recognized in Hubble-Law Name Change IAU Members Vote to Recommend Renaming the Hubble Law as the Hubble-Lemaître Law

On this ID The Future, Return of the God Hypothesis author Stephen Meyer again speaks with radio host Michael Medved about the extraordinarily powerful new James Webb space telescope. One researcher, Eric Lerner, has claimed that what the Webb telescope is seeing many billions of light years away (and therefore, many billions of years in the past) undercuts the Big Bang theory. But according to Meyer, the new photographs coming back from Webb actually further confirm the reality that our universe had a beginning (“the Big Bang”) and that it has been expanding ever since. What these Webb images are forcing a rethink on, Meyer says, is the conventional wisdom among cosmologists on galaxy formation in the early universe. Meyer Read More › Source

Linking together the histories of Henrietta Swan Leavitt, Edwin Hubble and Tracy K. Smith, poet and thinker Maria Popova crafts an astonishing story of how humanity came to see the edge of the observable universe. (Followed by an animated excerpt of "My God, It's Full of Stars," by Tracy K. Smith)
