Dear Jonathan:

Your historic article about the JWST caused many to join the Beyond the Standard Model movement. Now, an increasing number are following AI to rethink the big bang theory. We have posted the raw beginnings of an ALT model: https://81018.com/assume/ with the help of AI platforms: Grok, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Anthropic, and DeepSeek (China). There are many more platforms to be tested. As AI platforms develop a consensus and JWST. and newer satellites send back data, the tide will go out fast and will come back in with a new model of the start of the universe: https://81018.com

Are you ready to be a renegade one more time?

Thanks.

Warmly,

Bruce

Dear Jonathan:

I am looking forward to your sequel to JWST’s First Glimpses of Early Galaxies Could Break Cosmology. Why isn’t it featured more prominently on your website? It will become an historic document before you get old. More and more people will point to it.

A real sequel is to go back to all the people involved and give us an update. Is anybody saying anything truly outrageous? You could ask them if they have followed an exponential notation from the very beginning of time? If they ask, “How do you define the beginning of time, you could answer, “The Planck natural units. You can use Stoney’s natural units or the ISO’s units.” Then you could ask, Have you every seen the high school version done in 2011 and updated in 2016?” If they say, “No,” you can share this link: https://81018.com/chart/

I wish you well and I hope life is good to you.

Warmly,

Bruce

Dear Jonathan:

Great article.  If you’d like to see a rather idiosyncratic document regarding the JWST, go to https://81018.com/analysis/. Your comments are always welcomed. Thanks.

Warmly,

Bruce

Dear Jonathan:

There are principally two places where I mention your work within this homepage:

Introduction. With just two months of results, Scientific American published a landmark update about the work of the scholar-scientists on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) [1] project. The author, a freelance journalist Jonathan O’Callaghan [2], interviewed key players, including one who has been working on the project since its inception. The results have astounded the world; and, our astrophysics community has come alive like never before. They know they are on the edge of redefining who we are and why.”

And in the footnotes:

[1] Scientific American. You know something is happening when this historic publication allowed such a title, JWST’s First Glimpses of Early Galaxies Could Break Cosmology. Break cosmology? They are saying, ‘Break the Big Bang theory.’ Throughout the world there is an impatience with the haughtiness of science. Where is judiciousness? Where is the nervousness for possibly being wrong? Just the title alone tells us how open we have become and how impatient we are with arrogance.”

[2] Asking no one for permission. People like Jonathan O’Callaghan are important for scientific integrity. You just know he was waiting for the first official release of data (July 12, 2022) from the JWST program. You know he scrambled to make calls and contacts with the people within this program who were making decisions. You know he was writing and editing throughout that two month period before being picked up by Scientific American for publication. He stirred the pot and captured the tensions and excitement of the moment. I thank him.”

Yes, I do thank you. If there is anything you think I should change, please do not hesitate to advise!

Thanks again,

Bruce
