All observed characteristics of quasars are customarily interpreted using the standard Big Bang model and the
assumption that their redshifts are primarily due to the expansion of the universe.
These same characteristics
can also be interpreted using alternative models in which quasar redshifts are not cosmological.
In the table
below, the quality of these two interpretations is compared.
We see that, although both interpretations are
possible, Occam s Razor cuts sharply in favor of the nearby quasar interpretation.
The consequences of
continuing to ignore this in journal articles, at meetings, in grant awards, in experiment and instrument
design, in telescope allocation, in textbooks, and in th
