John G. Hartnett (born 24 March 1953 in

cosmologist. He has been active with Creation Ministries International and is known for his opposition to the Big Bang theory[3] and criticism of the dark matter and dark energy hypotheses.[3]

He received both his BSc (Hons) (1973) and PhD with distinction (2001) from the School of Physics at the

Space Mission) run by the European Space Agency.[6] He also has written articles for several creationist journals[7] and, according to Creation Ministries International, Hartnett "believes that God is the real creator of the universe as the Bible says."[8]

Research interests

His research interests include ultra low-noise radar and ultra high stability

the large scale structure of the universe.[4][12] He is also part of a team of scientists who are building liquid helium-cooled oscillators used by sapphire clocks for the National Metrology Institute of Japan in Tsukuba, Japan.[13]

According to Moshe Carmeli, Professor of Theoretical Physics at Ben Gurion University in Beer Sheva, Israel,[14] Hartnett asserted in his theory that there is no need to assume the existence of dark matter in the universe.[15]

Publications

John Hartnett is the author of the book "Starlight, Time and the New Physics" (2007).[16][17] and co-author of the book "Dismantling the Big Bang".[3][18]

    . We have re-analyzed the stability of pulse arrival times from pulsars and white dwarfs using several analysis tools for measuring the noise characteristics of sampled time and frequency data. We show that the best terrestrial artificial clocks substantially exceed the performance of astronomical sources as time-keepers in terms of accuracy (as defined by cesium primary frequency standards) and stability. ...we show that detailed accuracy evaluations of modern terrestrial clocks imply that these new clocks are likely to have a stability better than any astronomical source up to comparison times of at least hundreds of years.
