Hi Darrell,
Just thinking this through, the furthest Messier galaxy in the Virgo galaxy cluster (M58) is about 68 Mly away, and has a redshift of about 1,500 km/sec (1/200, or approx 0.5% of the speed of light).
Even if the the rate of cosmological expansion continues is increase (as many are now proposing), I would expect new light from these galaxies to still be viewable our neighbourhood in the distant future (albeit with more cosmological redshift). By my thinking
only cosmological expansion at/above the speed of light would prevent this (and I'd like to see that).
Have not read that article, but the quoted phrases sound wacko to me.
Could it be a cunning plan to sell magazine subscriptions?
Any chance of scanning and posting a couple of jpg's of the article pages?
Cheers,
Jeff
