   	New evidence supports changes to and wholly new approximations of the   
   observations.  My knowledge may not be superior to your knowlege as I have   
   been preoccupied not with the Super Collider results but with the   
   mind-bending   
   results of the astronomical time travel involved in finding earlier and   
   earlier   
   galactic-like formations back at the time which, if the Big Bang theory   
   is somewhat   
   correct, before the universe allowed the propagation of light or   
   electromagnetic   
   radiation to proceed.   
      
   	The Universe may not be explicable to the minds attempting it because they   
   are the products of the Universe. While clever tools both physical and   
   mental are   
   employed to study the present and past Universe we do not have as yet   
   and may   
   never have the capability to understand what the hell is going on in the   
   fullest   
   sense.  If dimensions beyond our apprehension are involved then it   
   becomes even   
   harder to understand the Universe.
