Cosmic Structuring:
"Thank you for your lovely letter. I congratulate you and thank you for your identification of the Bible’s ‘firmament’ with my use of the concept cosmic structuring. When my math book, SYNERGETICS, comes out next October, you will find it elucidating what appears to be fundamentals of cosmic structuring.
"Because sound has speed, we do not see the jet plane in the sky in the direction in which we hear it. The speed of sound is approximately 700 m.p.h., while the speed of light is 700 million m.p.h. The further things are away from us, the further they will be from where the sound or light was transmitted at the time we receive that light or sound event.
“One of two adjacent stars in the Big Dipper’s handle is 200 light years away from us and the other one is 100 light years away. A light year is six trillion miles. Therefore, the nearest one is 600 trillion miles away and the other one is one quadrillion two hundred trillion miles distant. Both are moving through the firmament in opposite directions at speeds greater than 100 thousand m.p.h. Yet they seem to us not to be changing their relative interpositioning.”
