Normalisation of CMB Redshift with Local Hubble Redshift Values Increases the Age of the Universe to 8.8 Trillion Years

In an attempt to reconcile the problem of developed galaxies observed near the cosmic microwave background (CMB) limit of the observable universe, the author normalised the age of the universe.  Local Hubble expansion redshift values were projected out to correspond with the redshift value of the CMB, some 1090 times greater. It is thought that due to space expanding at the speed of light at this location, the Hubble’s sphere, special relativity effects may distort observations. The new value places the universe's age at 8.8 trillion years old.
