Resumen
Observations of extragalactic objects show that their redshifts are a function of their age rather than their velocity of recession. This necessitates a non Big Bang solution for the behavior of the Universe. Unlike Theory of Relativity (TR) treatments, the new solutions require flat (Euclidean) space, a primary reference frame and both a universal time as well as individual object times. Recent analyses of local physics indicate these same properties can be used to satisfy classical TR experiments. It is argued that simple, non-mathematical reasoning needs these properties for new solutions and rules out the customary TR assumptions. The century long dominance of fundamentally inadequate physics would seem to be due to an uncritical feedback between Academia and the news media.
