Maybe that explains it -- all the absorbtions and re-emissions between here and there. Maybe the high energy rays are actually emitted later but this is yet to be plumbed with precision. No, this news does nothing to "overturn Einstein's theory". Why would you want to overturn what is patently gorgeous and natural and so true-to-form vis-a-vis That Zany Gifter, The Almighty?
