For example, current estimates conclude that the  Universe is 13.7 billion years old. Redshift measurements from galaxy clusters seem to indicate they are  located at enormous distances from Earth. Since the redshift theory conventionally associates time with  speed and distance, the greater the redshift, the greater the distance and the farther back in time the  clusters must be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consensus theories allow astronomers to propose many ideas that are built on the aforementioned  assumptions, one of which is that the first stars formed soon after the Big Bang and subsequent \u200bexpansion of the Universe. The first stars are no longer around. However, they are sufficiently confident in  the theory that computer simulations can be written and models made. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The galaxy cluster image at the top of the page is said to represent a time almost eleven billion years  ago, since redshift calculations place its central structure approximately 11 billion light-years from Earth. It  is conventionally thought to be so remote in space and time that it can be placed at a period when the first  stars were in their maturity. As the majority of astrophysicists maintain, that means it coalesced out of  many sub-clusters when the Universe was dominated by \u201ccold dark matter\u201c. During that early epoch, stars  must have contained high concentrations of dark matter, since theory states that dark matter densities  were significantly greater than they are today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Various science publications state that dark matter annihilation products, a new force carrier, a way for  dark matter to disintegrate into electrons and positrons, and a way to account for the ionization observed  in deep space created conditions necessary prop-up the theory. It is these concepts and scientific  pronouncements about \u201cdark stars\u201d that shine from dark matter annihilation, as well as the computer  simulations that are supposed to be \u201cconfirming\u201d the environment in which those so-called dark stars can  exist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dark and dark and dark\u2014Electric Universe proponents wonder if there will ever be any light from the  institutions that are supposed to be the pinnacle of scientific research. Physicist and Electric Universe  advocate, Wal Thornhill reiterates: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI suggest we stop wasting tens of billions of dollars searching for new particles and forces invented by  mathematicians chasing fame and a Nobel Prize and spend one percent of that sum investigating  the dense plasma focus. Science used to be about simplification. It is the way of the Electric Universe.
