Does Light Tire and Does It Prove the Big Bang Wrong?

Join Hugh Ross in this News of the Day episode of Stars, Cells, and God as he discusses a paper published by computer scientist Lior Shamir. Lior’s statistical analysis of redshifts of distant galaxies indicates that light may lose energy as it travels through space and that if light indeed gets tired, then a major revision of the standard big bang model is in order.

Shamir’s claimed effect may be a statistical artifact akin to Bible code claims.
Tired light is just one of several systematic effects that could explain the statistical bias discovered by Shamir.
Direct distance measurements have affirmed that galaxy redshifts are entirely explained by cosmic expansion out to 470 million light-years.
If light indeed tires, then images of distant quasars and blazars should be blurry but they’re not.
If light indeed tires, then the cosmic microwave background radiation should cool at a different rate than what astronomers observe.
The apparent maturity of some galaxies in the early universe does not challenge the standard big bang model if, as the Webb telescope has affirmed, many of the universe’s first stars are hundreds of times more massive than the Sun.
