The Secret Lives of Quasars

Quasars were first observed and identified as very dim stars with spectral photons that had redshifts that were many orders of magnitude greater than any Doppler shifts observed in the Milky Way or other nearby galaxies. In fact, the only galaxies with red shifts as large as quasars were located billions of light years away in the far reaches of the cosmos. Big Bang cosmologists made the metaphysical assumption that the extreme red shifts of quasars and distant galaxies were direct Doppler shifts caused by the imagined enormous outward linear momentum caused by the Big Bang singularity. They did not imagine that the quasar shifts could be the transverse Doppler shifts of radial gravitational momentum because they believed that gravitational momentum could not produce transverse Doppler effects because it was only “equivalent” to “real” momentum.

Because of their unquestioned acceptance of the equivalence principle, Big Bang and relativity theorists are forced to conclude that the extreme red shifts of quasars are caused by the high recessional momentum of an expanding universe instead of just the real measured gravitational momentum of atoms at a star’s surface.

This extremely large outward linear momentum led to the problem of a quasar’s enormous energy. Even though quasars are very dim compared to stars in the Milky Way, if they are really many billions of light years away, then they would have to be many orders of magnitude brighter than whole galaxies to even be seen.
