Still no Population III Stars for the Big Bang

Posted by -

A popular internet saying among folks who reject the Big Bang is, "In the beginning, there was nothing. Which exploded." While some supporters downplay the explosion which supposedly began everything,  they affirm the Frankensteined-in cosmic inflation — which is not even a hypothesis.

After the secular miracle of the Big Bang, the universe rapidly expanded and stars formed. These were primarily hydrogen and helium. Stars grew old, blew up, scattered debris, formulated the other elements, and all that good stuff. Those first stars formed are called population III.

Just as there is no evidence for the existence of the Oort cloud as a source of long-term comets, there is no evidence of population III stars of the early universe. But the secular science industry requires these things in their cosmic evolution narratives. Interesting that cosmologists group population I and II star by alleged age, but they are intermingled, so to find immaculate collections of (let alone any) population III stars is in the realm of science fantasy. The reality is that the universe (including the earth, of course) was created, and it was done so far more recently than fits with secular imaginings.
As I’ve explained before, astronomers have long looked for hypothetical population III stars, stars with no elements other than hydrogen and helium. According to the big bang model, the universe began with just hydrogen, helium, and a trifling amount of lithium. All the other elements, such as the oxygen and nitrogen we breathe, the iron in our blood, and the calcium in our bones, were synthesized in the cores of stars as the source of energy for the luminous output of the stars. Supernovae and other mechanisms spew the products of these nuclear reactions into space, where it mixes with the gas already there to produce more stars.
