I NEVER said we’d ever meet the Great Attractor.
I said we are moving towards it at 1/500th the speed of light, which the NASA site on the Dipole CMB says.
“Our Earth is not at rest. The Earth moves around the Sun. The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. The Milky Way Galaxy orbits in the Local Group of Galaxies. The Local Group falls toward the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies. But these speeds are less than the speed that all of these objects together move relative to the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR). In the featured all-sky map from the COBE satellite in 1993, microwave light in the Earth's direction of motion appears blueshifted and hence hotter, while microwave light on the opposite side of the sky is redshifted and colder. The map indicates that the Local Group moves at about 600 kilometers per second relative to this primordial radiation. This high speed was initially unexpected and its magnitude is still unexplained. Why are we moving so fast? What is out there?”
Speed of light,C=300,000kps
/600kps = 500
https://science.nasa.gov/cmb-dipole-speeding-through-universeWhat is out there that is making us move at 1/500th the speed of light? The Great Attractor.
“The Norma Cluster is the closest massive galaxy cluster to the Milky Way, and lies about 220 million light-years away. The enormous mass concentrated here, and the consequent gravitational attraction, mean that this region of space is known to astronomers as the Great Attractor, and it dominates our region of the Universe.”
https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/hubble/science/great-attractor.html“What is a Cosmological Constant?
Einstein first proposed the cosmological constant (not to be confused with the Hubble Constant) usually symbolized by the greek letter "lambda" (Λ), as a mathematical fix to the theory of general relativity. In its simplest form, general relativity predicted that the universe must either expand or contract. Einstein thought the universe was static, so he added this new term to stop the expansion. Friedmann, a Russian mathematician, realized that this was an unstable fix, like balancing a pencil on its point, and proposed an expanding universe model, now called the Big Bang theory. When Hubble's study of nearby galaxies showed that the universe was in fact expanding, Einstein regretted modifying his elegant theory and viewed the cosmological constant term as his "greatest mistake".
Many cosmologists advocate reviving the cosmological constant term on theoretical grounds. Modern field theory associates this term with the energy density of the vacuum. For this energy density to be comparable to other forms of matter in the universe, it would require new physics: the addition of a cosmological constant term has profound implications for particle physics and our understanding of the fundamental forces of nature.
The main attraction of the cosmological constant term is that it significantly improves the agreement between theory and observation.”
https://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/uni_accel.htmlThe standard model of the cosmos is the LambdaCDM model
Lambda is like a pencil balanced on its point,
Like a pencil shooting at 1/500th the speed of light, along the DipoleCMB.
“As observations have accumulated to help refine or reject theoretical predictions, a consensus or "standard" 6-parameter Cosmological-constant (Lambda - Λ) Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model has been successfully applied to the interpretation of a range of cosmologically-oriented observations.”
