The most precise measurements to date of cosmological parameters continue to validate RTB’s cosmic creation model by affirming a finely tuned big bang creation event. Using the latest Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and WMAP data, a team of international scientists extracted the best measurements of the space-energy density and of the universe’s total density. The results match previous findings but significantly reduce the error bars. For example, the error on the mass density decreased from 5% using the WMAP data alone to only 1% with both SDSS and WMAP data. The new values confirm that humans live in a geometrically flat, big bang universe which exhibits tremendous fine-tuning. Not surprisingly, these characteristics match the biblical description of the universe.
