Astrophysicists interpret “photons” as having traveled unimpeded from a location in the distant ‘past’ such that the interpretative perception supposedly constitutes a “look back” into the “early universe”. This ballistic, or corpuscular theory, stems from the notion of space as a “void” containing absolutely no intervening matter. These are interpreted as such despite experiments subsequently asserting that original “photons” are extinguished upon interacting with matter. How then can there be an original “photon” arriving unimpeded from some distant galaxy affording a “look back” in time when there is so very much intervening matter? [link to www.thunderbolts.info]
