And like a Phoenix, a new and improved "Steady State" model for this universe, that we find ourselves within, rises. Which believe was the estabished theory, the Big Bang theory usurped. The scientic method is self-correcting, that is it's wonder and strength. Still it is exciting to witness the possibility of such a major upheaval within the ivory towers.

The new theory has yet to run the gauntlet of the community of Astrophysicists and Cosmologists. I will wait for peer review to run its slow course before I will be an unqualified believer. The Brane universe incorporates the accelerating universe which has been substantiated by observation by the Supernova Cosmology Project and the High-z SN Search Team, so there is one plus in its favor. It makes use of dark matter and dark energy in a way that was not considered before. However, there is no possibility of observation of this new type of universe outside of computer programs. This does not make it wrong. This only makes it as yet unconfirmed by the peers in the scientific community.
It is an interesting theory. I wish it well. However, I am certainly not a *peer* and will not be among the judges.
