Abstract

Cosmological theorists have overlooked an important aspect of the universe, that' of the dispersal of matter and energy from galaxies into interstellar space. This paper reports on an attempt to give that phenomenon proper consideration. That effort has resulted in a new cycling universe cosmology. That universe, of great of age, provides an explanation for such things as the excess mass in the vicinity of galaxies, the nature of dark matter and, if the universe truly is expanding, its cause is the galactic wind. As background, as a point of departure, and to provide a comparison to these new ideas, a discussion of the problems of Big Bang Theory is also presented.
