Animation of Exploding Galaxy According to the Ball-of-Light Particle Model

The current accepted model for galaxy formation basically describes galaxies as collapsed clouds of gas and dust. While galaxies certainly contain gas and dust, the Ball-of-Light Particle Model predicts this gas and dust was made by decaying balls-of-light such as the stars within the galaxy. Images from deep in space, like the Hubble Space Telescope's Deep Field View, do not see the predicted clouds of gas and dust that made galaxies. (See also, Where's the Dust?) Instead they see small exploding galaxies.

This animation shows how the Ball-of-Light Particle Model would explain the formation of a spiral galaxy:

1. a large ball-of-light decays
2. ejecting material off opposite poles (The blobby structure at this point looks like the blobby galaxies in the Deep Field View.)
3. the smaller ejected balls-of-light decay
4. as the galaxy develops it expands
5. gravity halts the expansion
6. as the galaxy develops the overall color changes from bright white-blue to dim red.
