Per Big Bang theory, backround microwave radiation is em radiation which has decreased in frequency rather drastically, from very high (far in excess of x-ray freqs, for example) to very low (i.e. microwave freqs) through an estimated time period of roughly 12-18 billion years (also based on Doppler effect QUITE uniquely and exclusively interpreting or "explaining" observed red-shifts), yet red-shifted light emitted also several billions of years ago from distant galactic starlight "cools" by not even a single wavelength in frequency through all that time, not to mention space? I seriously doubt it, and yet I take my medication and see my therapist regularly, so what gives, Bill Nye, the Science Guy? If experts are trying that hard to avoid plural variables (other than Doppler effect, such as "cooling" or "aging") in a single equation, I certainly don't blame them, but I can't go so far as to excuse them, either, can I?
Indeed, can anyone who sees the emperor's "new clothes"?
