By means of historical documentations of sun eclipses we can prove, the day length has increased by 1.7 . 10 –5 s/a, in the average over the past 2500 years [36]. Therefore, that value for the Earth rotation delay demanded by the EE hypothesis and  that one gained by observations coincide surprisingly well. Presumptions for this are, the tide effects of the moon are negligible and the Earth mass remains approximately constant.
5.2 Continuous formation of matter in the universe

As mentioned before, Halton Arp, by means of astronomical observations, achieves the result, matter must develop continuously in the universe.
Newer research results also confirm this statement:
B.P. Wakker and his team from the Wisconsin- Madison university (USA) has investigated a gas cloud  [37], p. 6:
“…. which lays up to 40000 light years above our Milky Way. If only gas clouds from the “galactic fountain” would be in the halo, then the part of heavy elements should be larger in younger stars than in older ones. But this is not so. Instead, a gas rain replenishes the hydrogen stock of our Milky Way which, according to the results of Wakker never has been in the Milky Way before. Moreover, the matter seems to come from outside. The question of its origin, however, remains unanswered.”
The formation of new matter, stabilizing the plane universe, must be preferred to the spontaneous formation of matter shortly after the big bang, for mere theoretical reasons as well. Following back in time, the big bang universe would at some time have been caught in its own Schwarzschild radius, from which no escape would nave been possible  [32]. Therefore, the universe we observe should not exist at all, if the big bang theory in its present form was correct!
The thesis of the continuous creation of matter is also confirmed by the numerous, extraordinarily dim galaxies with partly giant dimensions observed in the past years [38], p. 62:
“During the past years, astronomers have discovered more than thousand diffuse star systems which barely shine brighter than the background of the night sky. These dim objects, belonging to  a galaxy type unknown before supply new discoveries on how mass is distributed in the universe and how galaxies develop.”
These so- called LSB galaxies attract attention because they contain mostly gas and very little heavy elements, and were considered to be the least developed objects in the universe, which, in the course of billions of years after big bang, have barely changed [39], p. 67. This interpretation is extremely unsatisfying for the very reason alone that it presumes star birth and matter densifying processes totally different from those observed in the universe elsewhere.
It would be much more plausible to explain these gloomy objects by means of the CTH, as just being in the process of new creation, building up matter according to the relation M ~ t 2/3 and only reaching the luminosity of normal galaxies after billions of years.
