He was a lawyer who became an astronomer with access to the big new telescopes of his day, which could identify what previously had been pinpricks of light, Meyer said. Instead of just one galaxy in the university, or band of stars, the Milky Way galaxy, Hubble learned that there are many galaxies, Meyer explained. At least 100,000 galaxies have since been identified, out of a projected 250,000. This gave rise to the Big Bang theory. The universe since that time has been expanding, and the speed of that expansion is greatest at the outside edges of the universe, Meyer said.
Faith is inescapable.
