'beyond the Big-Bang'

I ran across something which might apply to 'seeing beyond the Big-Bang'.
And it has to do with quasars ( quasi-steller objects ).
Astronomical distances and velocities have been inferred from 'color' and 'size' of a light source.
Thousands of quasars have been observed, some at the 'edge' of the Universe.
And since 'space' is created by 'matter,' quasars actually manufacture the space that's near them.
From these inferred distances and velocities, quasars upset the cosmological apple cart for theorists and their models.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It turns out that astronomers may have wrongly associated galaxies in the foreground with quasars in the background, far behind.
And the 'brightness' of the quasar or galaxy may be affected by heated intersteller gas being accelerated into a black hole before it crosses the event horizon, 'skewing' the luminosity, and with it, assumptions about size and velocity.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To accurately determine the size and location of an object requires triangulation from three simultaneous vantage points, as NASA does at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico; where at least three theodolites simultaneously perform radar-tracking observations of airborne objects.
From trigonometry, position and velocity can be pin-pointed.
Or from a calibrated laser rangefinders ( UFOs at Area-51 ).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As new satellites, at Lagrange Points orbit, while performing precision time-stamped scanning of specific objects on and off, later on, that data can be be reassembled by celestial mechanics to provide 'triangulated' views of distant objects, nailing down their actual size and location.
