G’day from the land of ozzzzzzzz

This is quite interesting reading.

WMAP and COBE have produced almost no valid scientific data. The WMAP and COBE teams have be caught deliberately cooking their data books to manufacture the result they want. Smoot’s “wrinkles in the fabric of time” are nothing but ghost remnants of signal processing. Smoot systematically removed the galactic foreground, the dipole signal and quadrupole signal in order to “find” a signal that is ~1000 times smaller than the contamination. His systematic signal processing introduced systematic remnants of his signal processing, and he mistakes these introduced ghost signals for data – his alleged multipole anisotropies. Talk about incompetence.

The COBE-FIRAS team allege the most perfect blackbody spectrum ever measured, hailed by the astrophysical scientists as a triumph that proves their CMB and big BANG. Really? Not the truth by any stretch of the imagination. The FIRAS instrument is so riddled with faults and shortcomings that its data is not worth the paper it’s written on. Their most perfect blackbody spectrum is not a direct measurement of the sky, but a comparison of the sky with the external calibrator Xcal. Owing to significant design shortcomings, the sky undoubtedly leaks into the external calibrator Xcal, and so the sky ends up being compared to itself. The FIRAS team will always get a blackbody spectrum if the sky dominates the external calibration because they assume a blackbody for the sky and for Xcal. But they never even got a proper null, and so they deliberately doctored the data to get one. And all the errors they couldn’t doctor they moved into their calibration files! The COBE-FIRAS team is telling tall tales.
