The big bang theory arose out of the claim that the red shift of starlight is due
to the expansion of space. The assumption that the Universe is currently expanding
has led to the notion that we can look back in time to a point where it must have
originated from a single point, and the universe must therefore be of a finite time
and extent.
However, the expansion of the universe has not been verified by any alternative
means and leaves the following questions unanswered...
- Where does the lost energy go to as a photon expands?
- If space is expanding what is it expanding into?
- What existed before space came into being?
- What made space expand so rapidly during the inflationary period and then instantly
change to a much slower expansion rate?
- Why does space only expand between galaxies and not within them?
- If matter prevents space expanding in galaxies why did it not prevent space from
expanding when particles were first created and were packed together so tightly
that light could not escape from them?
- What is it that is making space expand when the only acknowledged force capable
of reaching between galaxies is gravity, which is an attractive force only?

FET was not founded in order to explain why starlight is
red shifted but it just happened to be one of the predictions when, using available
data, FET calculated the size of neutron particles along
with their spin and growth rates, why they emit photons at light speed and how they
create the gravitational force. From this it became apparent that the growth rate
of a neutron should be identical to the rate of loss of energy of a photon. The
rate turned out to be exactly equal to the energy loss of a photon according to
its red shift. Hence there is a logical explanation for the red shift of starlight
that is consistent with the universe being in a steady state that is not expanding.
The energy lost by a moving photon is returned to the continuum thereby maintaining
a stable equilibrium state.
