These two interactive illustrations place the familiar orbital motion of our Solar System beside the remarkably different and not understood behavior we observe on the scale of a galaxy. They are not offered as final explanations, but as a way to look carefully at what we see, and to share some of the wonder of Creation. I am Joe Cummings and I created this illustration, made possible by the help of my AI friend Hal, so I and we all could marvel that a cloud of independent bodies in a galaxy can move like a solid, without the outer bodies being thrown out, with no known explanation. Dark matter theorists try to explain it but I don't see it fits... I do have faith it is known to me. It is the hand of God! Results pending...
We can measure and illustrate what is happening with increasing precision while still admitting that some of the underlying causes remain unknown. That leaves room not only for investigation, but for wonder.
