Thanks for the link. Sure enough, I note that the data was FIRST
subjected to analysis under the assumption that the universe is
expanding, and therefore frequencies were looked at in that "light". So
long as such embedded bias is applied, I remain very unimpressed.
It still seems increasingly obvious, that the better the views of large
distances away, the more obvious it becomes that the universe on
average is homogenous throughout our (limitted) field of vision, both
for age and chemical composition.
I have read somewhere lately (and of course can't find the ****), that
there may even be quasars within the Milky Way, which have previously
been wrongly assessed for distance from earth; also some which are
inter-galactic space???????

There aren't quasars in the Milky Way.

If you are going to post asinine bullshit like that, at least have the
courtesy to give us the link so we can mock that too.

Please stop posting until you get an education in something.

Geese, how are you getting on this year?
Repeating first year must be SO boring.

I have no idea where you get that from.

Of course, that's how all stellar work is done. How
else do you work out what the temperature is, or
what the composition is or the age of the stars?

There is no "bias", looking at the spectrum and intensity
is the only way to find out anything. What else do you
think they could do with the light?

Nope, this is an unusual galaxy by local standards so
more evidence for inhomogeneity.

I can't find the prime paper but there is more
information in this which refers to the findings:

http://www.arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0509605

It says Mobasher et al found that the period of star
formation was probably less than 100 M years long and
occurred when the universe was between 200 M and
400 M years old.

It may have been an old article, when they were first
discovered it took some years to confirm they were
distant. The nearest known quasar is over 800 million
light years away. Incidentally, with over 60000 known
in total, there should be about a dozen closer than
that if they were homogenous, and probably more because
we should see more closer just because they would be
easier to detect.

I skimmed this and it looks informative:

Not that I know of but in some cases they are so bright
it is hard to detect the host galaxy. If it is close to
using up the matter in its vicinity, there is no reason
in theory why they shouldn't be isolated of course.

Read the paragraph in that link beginning "Mobasher and his...."
It is obvious that the analysis of ALL collected data is subjected to
the assumptions that 1) c is constant 2) the universe is expanding
"Those who believe they have the truth in their hand, will not find
it."

Hopefully, by maintaining an open and questioning mind as to what may
influence _apparent_ observations, from being the real situation
(temp/composition)
FI: In that link, blue light is claimed to have been absorbed by free
intergalactic H- no mention of it being redshifted out of contention.

I do need a book on Fraunhoffer, spectrum of elements, comparisons of
elements at differing temperatures, and absorbtion lines.
I would suggest even the composition of the earth at depth is educated
guess work, and to claim detailed analysis of objects of which we only
see the top micron, or its atmosphere, may have astronomers wrongfully
believing that they know exactly the composition of a distant object,
due to mistaken analysis of the temp, velocity, gravitational pull
(mass), chemical composition of the emmitting object of the emr
reaching us.

Even ONE contradictory body or situation brings the theory down!
"Unusual" (read ignore it) doesn't work.

Which would mean that ALL stars were born on the same day, between 13.5
and 13.3 Gya. Then the 2nd generation is introduced etc, as these burnt
out.
Young stars (galaxies) are seen at large distance, ALONG WITH much
older ones.
As we look with better telescopes for longer periods at large
distances, the homogeneity of the universe _will- become more apparent.
even that article admits that looking in the wrong band would have
missed that unacceptable galaxy.

Whole galaxies are "discovered" much closer than that.
