Astronomers Found a Ring in Space That Spans 5.6 Billion Light Years Across

Here is the likelihood that this is just chance.  And from statistics class, or just plain common sense it sure seems that the observation has rhyme and reason to it!

This implies that the ring is more than 5 billion light-years across, and, according to the team, there is only a 1 in 20,000 probability of the GRBs being in this distribution by chance.

And below is a cool video of these gamma ray bursts described as such:

An artist’s conception of the environment around GRB 020819B based on ALMA observations. The GRB occurred in an arm of a galaxy in the constellation of Pisces (The Fishes). GRBs are huge explosions of a star spouting high-speed jets in a direction toward the observer. In a complete surprise, less gas was observed than expected, and correspondingly much more dust, making some GRBs appear as “dark GRBs”.

We hope you like the video and I am curious to see if astronomers will come up with more meaning about this surprising observation.

    Science is awesome! Christians have a hard time wrapping their head around science such as this, but they have no problem believing in a talking snake or a virgin birth! LOL!

    You have no problem believing everything came from nothing from a big bang that made everything then with all odds stacked against it life formed in a bacterial type then for no reason at all formed a reptile then crawled out and changed to a monkey which then turned into a humanoid? ……. yeah funny , stupid Christians

    This is probably the ring from the bubble universe that our collided. Like in Braneworld universe. My favorite universal theory. Giving 4 spacial dimensions and one time.

    I am a Believer in Jesus Christ, The Living Son of GOD & yes, GOD started the creation of the physical aspect of this universe with an event that we dubbed, “The Big Bang”.

    & no, The Big Bang didn’t come from nothing……it came from something.

    That something was the power of GOD’s spoken word.

    & yes, I also believe in evolution…..but not as both you & the yet-to-be Believers in Jesus Christ (or for a lack of better words, “seculars”) were deceived into believing.

    Evolution is not “Humans came from chimps” or species A (chimps, for example) gives rise to species B (Humans for example).

    That is the lie about evolution. & Both the Believer & yet-to-be Believer in Christ has believed this lie.

    Here is what evolution is:

    Evolution is just a change occuring over a time period.

    Evolution is a real feature of, at least, the physical aspect of this universe.

    The Grand Canyon is 1 of many examples of on going evolution.
    The Grand Canyon changed over many years, from cosmic radiation wearing upon it, & from wind, water & acid rain erroding it……in other words is has been & still is evolving.

    Weather evolves. The living evolves. My body is not the same now, as it was a mere hour ago. My hair, finger & toes nails have all grown since then. That’s evolution.

    GOD’s word states that GOD is The Alpha, The Omega. The Beginning & The End…..in other words, GOD is not bound by time. GOD is infinite.

    GOD’s Word also states that, GOD is the same yesterday, today & forever more…….in other words, GOD doesn’t change over a time period.

    In other words, GOD does not evolve.

    In other words, if you are not GOD, you do evolve…….that is to say that you undergo changes over a time period.

    But did Humans come from chimps?
    Did 1 day, all of the sudden a chimp or a quasi chimp/Human give birth to a Human……no.

    That’s the stupidest claim that I have ever heard. That is not evolution, that is ridiculous.

    & that it not how genetic info is passed from parent to offspring in multicellular organisms.

    It can’t happen simply because genetics just don’t work that way.
