	Amazon.com: The Accelerating Universe : Infinite Expansion, the Cosmological Constant, and the Beauty of the Cosmos: Books
		Yet the 1998 observations of the accelerating expansion would seem to mean that the Universe is open, the geometry is negative.
		He argues that a fundamental theory of the universe must be beautiful--symmetrical, reductionist, and compliant with the generalized Copernican principle (i.e., assuming no special circumstances)--even though an eternally expanding universe appears to violate the requisites for scientific beauty.
		If so, the accelerating universe may prove as traumatic a finding as was the heretical notion that the Earth was not the center of the universe to Galileo's inquisitors.

		Image caption: Supernovae Are the Clues to the Accelerating Universe-The Journal Science Picks Top Advance for 1998: Supernova 1998bu in the near-by spiral galaxy, M96 illustrates the appearance of supernovae observed at the far greater distances necessary to see the effect of Einstein's cosmic repulsion.
		The discovery of the acceleration of the universe by two teams of astronomers using the National Science Foundation's (NSF) National Optical Astronomy Observatories (NOAO) was named by the journal Science as the top scientific research advance of 1998.
		The findings of these two research groups indicate that the universe does not contain enough matter to stop the expansion and, more surprisingly, that the expansion is speeding up.

	A Brief History of the Big Bang
		Until 1998, astronomers thought that the expansion of the universe ought to be slowing.
		However, the data of 1998 suggests that, because the universe seems to be accelerating in its expansion, in this epoch in any case, the universe will expand forever to become a cold, dark, boring place in the distant future.
		The universe may still collapse, even with a non-zero cosmological constant at work, so long as the density of matter in space is high enough.

	"A New Theory of Cosmic Origins" by I. M. Oderberg (review of "The Inflationary Universe" by Alan H. Guth)

		Inflationary theory explains the origin of matter and the universe in the first "billion-trillion-trillionth of a second" by means of a period of hyper-rapid inflation which leads to the big bang.
		As the pocket universes live out their lives and recollapse or dwindle away, new universes are generated to take their place.

	YourArt.com >> Encyclopedia >> galaxy
		When astronomers speculated that certain objects previously classified as spiral nebulae were actually vast congeries of stars, this was called the "island universe theory"; but this was an obvious misnomer, since universe means everything there is. Consequently, this term fell into disuse, replaced by applying the term galaxy generically to all such bodies.
		Above this scale, the universe appears to be isotropic and homogeneous.

		That the density of the universe is close to the critical density, and thus the geometry of the universe is flat.
		It proposes a period of extremely rapid (exponential) expansion of the universe shortly after the Big Bang, during which time the energy density of the universe was dominated by a cosmological constant term that later decayed to produce the matter and radiation that fill the universe today.

		The Universal House of Justice feels that it is vital, for the sound development of the Cause of God in those communities where there remains any doubt among the friends as to the importance of obedience to this law, that the National Spiritual Assemblies ensure that all believers are clearly informed of it.
		The Universal House of Justice envisages an important role for tribal chiefs and traditional rulers within the Baha'i community and provides guidance to enable the Spiritual Assemblies to assist these distinguished individuals to fulfil their responsibilities in the most befitting manner.
		Hence the emphasis that the Universal House of Justice has placed on the deepening of the believers' understanding of the Faith and on a patient but persistent programme by the institutions of the Cause in weaning them away from this practice.

		Subject: universality of gfs From: Farrell Ackerman Date: Sun, 14 Jun 1998 13:44:10 -0700 for what it's worth, here's my private collection of misunderstandings concerning rachel's inquiry: it's easy to agree with both paul and joan concerning the distinction between a formalism and the vision of grammar implemented within a formalism.
		I know that this is supposed to follow from the claim that both phrases (including sentences) and morphology are "constructions", but i'm not really sure that I know what this means in practice.
		given this, it's possible to imagine a kind of lfg without gfs (if it proves that this is empirically necessary) and it's possible to imagine a kind of cg containing a theory of universals (if this proves desirable).

	ASTRONOMY 102- LECTURE 38
		Current evidence (1998) indicates that the universe is open and perhaps even decelerating more slowly than can be accounted for by our current theories of gravity.
		Since our observable universe is 10 to 15 billion light years in size we total all the mass within 10 to 15 billion light years and divide by the volume of a sphere 10 to 15 billion light years in diameter.
		The greater the density of the universe, the more deceleration, and thus in the closed universe, distant galaxies seem to be moving much more rapidly than if there density were lower.

	Open Questions: Expansion of the Universe, Dark Energy, Quintessence
		The accelerating expansion of the universe detected in 1998 has stimulated several theories of "dark energy" or "quintessence".
		Attempts to determine the amount of matter in the universe, both visible and invisible, indicate that the total mass of such matter is at most 35% of the amount required for a "flat" universe.
		Evidence continues to accumulate that cosmic expansion is accelerating, which would imply higher estimates for the age of the universe.

	Science magazine names Supernova Cosmology Project "Breakthrough of the Year" for 1998
		In early January 1998 the Supernova Cosmology Project presented the first compelling evidence that the expansion is accelerating and that this acceleration is due to the cosmological constant, known by the Greek letter lambda, which may represent as much as 70 percent of the total mass-energy density of the universe.
		The surprising discovery that the expansion of the universe is accelerating, and thus is likely to go on expanding forever, is based on observations of type Ia supernovae, very bright astronomical "standard candles" that all have the same intrinsic brightness.
		At the time almost everybody assumed that the universe was slowing down, due to gravity acting on the matter in the universe.

	The Accelerating Universe and The Regenerating Universe Theory
		Teams of prominent American and European scientists using both the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and Earth based telescopes had announced in 1998 the results of their many years observation and measurement of the expansion of the universe.
		Since there are practically nothing but space and galaxies in the universe, and since such colossal forces, which move the entire universe, are not likely to have come out of cosmic space, they must have come from the galaxies.
		Because if the universe had been started by Big Bang, then after the big bang, or Inflation, the gravitation of masses in the universe should have slowed down the rate of universal expansion and continue to slow it down.

		Further, ecclesiastical leaders adopted the earth-centered view of the universe of Ptolemy, a Roman astronomer of the second century.

		Thus it was not the biblical perspective, but the Greek view of the cosmos that was to guide man's concept of the universe for many centuries.

		NBC got interested last month, when the Miss Universe pageant entranced 11.3 million viewers and Russian brunette Oxana Fedorova donned the crown (which NBC may be pleased to know looks strikingly like a peacock's tail).
		The March 1 telecast, which saw Shauntay Hinton from the District of Columbia crowned Miss USA, only pulled in 7.6 million viewers, the lowest in history and about half as many viewers as originally tuned in 1998, the first year of Trump's five-year deal with CBS.
