In phenomenology, we study what something is for an observer.

In this work, I asked the question: what is “time” for an observer?

I was confronted with Einstein’s insight that time observations and space observations are connected.

I was not studying time and space in themselves (as in physics), but rather what time and space are for observers (phenomenology).

This phenomenological perspective generated its own answers, which differ from the current scientific consensus.

The distortions of space we observe are relativistic — they depend on observers.

Observers are the zero-points of reference frames, a “zero” in mathematics.

Yet they appear to be the backbone of reference frames in relativity, and the cause of the collapse of the wave function in quantum mechanics.

What are observers?

They exist; they are real in nature, and they have a lawful connection with nature, as I discovered. The observer, light and 'Spacetime' are the constants. The observed universe is the result of these three constants working together.

The redshift of the emitted light from receding galaxies, discovered by Edwin Hubble, is not evidence of an expanding universe, but rather evidence of the
