Scientist claims he’s found 'exact location of heaven': Can humans reach it?

While humans have been obsessed with going to heaven, a former Harvard professor has asked and answered one of the most vital questions: Where is it?

For years, the existence of 'heaven' has been a polarising debate between scientists and theologians. However, Dr Michael Guillen, a former Harvard lecturer who holds PhDs in physics, mathematics and astronomy, recently wrote an open essay for Fox News, explaining how he found the 'exact location of heaven'.

Where is heaven?

The theorist began by explaining that the current universe is expanding and the surrounding objects at a distance are moving even further away at greater speeds, a theory first popularised by Edwin Hubble.

“In 1929, American attorney-turned-amateur astronomer Edwin Hubble discovered that galaxies are rushing away from one another like so much shrapnel from a bomb," he wrote.

“Hubble also discovered there’s a definite pattern to how galaxies are rushing away from each other, namely: The farther 'up' in space a galaxy is located — the farther away it is from Earth — the faster it’s moving away from Earth and everything else.”

Drawing from Hubble's research, Dr Guillen went on to state: "Theoretically, a galaxy that's 273 billion trillion (273,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) miles away from Earth would move at 186,000 miles per second, which is the speed of light.

Humans can never reach heaven

According to the professor, the distance "way up there" is called the Cosmic Horizon and that means "you and I can never reach" it. Not even the most "souped-up, nuclear-powered rocket imaginable" would be able to take humans there.

"Because, as Einstein explained in his theory of special relativity only light and certain other non-material phenomena can travel at the speed of light.”

Heaven: Dr VS Bible

According to Dr Guillen, the Cosmic Horizon is the actual location of heaven, particularly because it coincides with the mention of 'heaven' as depicted in the Bible.

“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 clarified.

“As for heaven’s location, the Bible contains many verses that describe us as looking 'up' at God in heaven, and God as looking 'down' at us on Earth.”

The Cosmic Horizon is as far 'up' in the universe as one can go, but as mortals, we humans can never pass through it to the other side, which is where as per the doctor, heaven is.

“According to modern cosmology, an entire universe exists beyond the Cosmic Horizon. But it’s permanently hidden from us because we can never reach, let alone cross over, the Cosmic Horizon,” added the physicist.

“Unlike time, however, space does exist at and beyond the Cosmic Horizon. Which means the hidden universe beyond the Cosmic Horizon is habitable, albeit only by light and light-like entities.”

He also added that the Cosmic Horizon is lined with the oldest celestial objects in the universe, those that even predate the "so-called big bang".

Thus with all these reasonings: Far away location, inaccessible to mortals but still alive, inhabited by timeless beings and surrounded by 'one' who predates the universe, he claims he has found heaven where it is.
