I
identify a little-noticed issue in the normal formulation of the light
travel time problem. In addition, I lay groundwork for the beginning of a
new solution to the problem. This solution invokes similarity between
creative acts of Day Four and other days of the Creation Week, but
especially Day Three. The Day Three account suggests unusually fast
growth for plants. In similar fashion, this possible new solution
suggests unusually fast propagation of light on Day Four, probably by
rapid expansion of space. This is an appeal to a miraculous event rather
than a physical process to get distant starlight to the earth. It is
not yet clear whether this suggestion could have testable predictions.
If this is the correct way to look at the problem, it may be that we are
seeing much of the universe in something close to real time. I briefly
compare this possible solution to the light travel time to other
previously published proposals.Read the PDF article below or download from the Answers Research Journal at http://www.answersingenesis.org/contents/379/arj/v6/light_travel_time_problem.pdf
