Dr. Michael Guillen, a former Harvard physics professor, has proposed that Heaven is located beyond the cosmic horizon, a boundary beyond which objects recede faster than the speed of light. Drawing on Edwin Hubble's observations, Guillen argues that at a distance of 273 billion trillion miles, galaxies move at light speed, creating a region where time ceases to exist.
Guillen describes this timeless realm as matching biblical descriptions of Heaven. He states, 'According to the Bible, the lowest level of Heaven is Earth's atmosphere. The mid-level heaven is outer space. The highest-level heaven is what we’re talking about: It’s where God dwells.' He claims matter beyond the cosmic horizon exists outside space-time and is inhabited by nonmaterial, timeless beings.
Mainstream astronomers view the cosmic horizon simply as the limit of observability due to the finite speed of light and the universe's age. The cosmic microwave background, an afterglow of the Big Bang, provides evidence for the universe's expansion but does not support Guillen's claims.
Guillen's theory, published in Fox News, blends cosmology with theology, but remains outside scientific consensus. The cosmic horizon will continue to recede as the universe expands, eventually hiding more galaxies from view.
