The endlessly cooking Universe

These relatively nearby finds appear eerily
similar to the universe's first galaxies. They
have the same mass (equivalent to about 10
billion Suns), the same elemental composition
(roughly that of the Sun), and the same age of
stars (approximately 1 billion years old).

"It's almost like looking out the window and
seeing a dinosaur walking by," says Tim Heckman,
an astronomer at Johns Hopkins University in
Baltimore, Maryland, US.

Maybe when you're a dinosaur, everything looks
like a dinosaur.

Wake up and smell the roses, Tim. The Big Bang
is a theory.

Just another example of the lack of simple tests
to prove the Universe was always here and the
ease of believing everything that was spoon-fed to
you.

It's so easy to be a sponge and accept everything
without question, ain't it.

And the universe just keeps cookin'.
