Lisle, Jason (2024) Sizes of Galaxies in JWST Data Suggest New Cosmology. Answers Research Journal, 17: 28. pp. 445-457. ISSN 1937-9056
Estimated galaxy diameters in deep field images provided by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are far smaller than cosmologists expected. However, these size estimates assume the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLWR) metric of an expanding universe. We here show that if galaxy redshifts are interpreted as Doppler shifts in a non-expanding space then these distant galaxies are actually the same size as nearby galaxies for all values of redshift (z). We show that the brightness of these galaxies is also consistent with their redshift interpreted as a Doppler shift in non-expanding space. We find that the standard model fails the Tolman surface brightness test when applied to JWST galaxies, but that our alternative model passes. Secular astronomers interpret the differences between their predictions and observations as a result of galaxy evolution over billions of years. We here show that the data are more consistent with galaxies receding through a non-expanding space in which no substantial galaxy evolution has occurred. This new cosmology is consistent with biblical creation, contrary to the big bang, and allows us to make testable, quantitative predictions about future JWST observations.
