Before Hubble and also before JWST scientists predicted these telescopes would :
Hypothesis : show evidence of the beginning of the universe at about 14 billion years.
Observations again and again nulifies that hypothesis.
Scientist goes over the top about this in part because they have :
human needs
need to publish, need to make a career, need to be recognized as scientists, need to put bread on the tableAnd so they come up with this :
BigBang, acceleration of the expansion : "inflation of the universe", decceleration : "end of the inflation", and now a new phase of acceleration !
Since there is not enough strong non-contradictory evidence to say otherwise, let's go with Ocam's razor : whatever more simple theories, even if it hurts scientist's egos.
