Hmmm, the questions this raises...
What could be responsible for this? Some phenomenon similar to red shift/Doppler effect? Dark matter concentrations? Cosmic "bruises" if the multiverse theory is correct? Gravitational lensing by an object in between us and the observed galaxy? Relativity would explain that we are smaller alpha in the distance, but larger? And a factor of space, not time? What about the fabric of space time can change and cause this? If all matter and energy came from a common source, how is this possible? Weren't the fundamental laws "written" at the moment of the big bang? How can this variation be? Though I have heard that electroweak is slightly different in antimatter (forgot the term for it), could this be the same for the electromagnetic force, and we are looking at antimatter galaxies? And what would happen if we travelled to a portion of the universe with alpha variation? Would our space ship fall apart at the subatomic level? Is our matter subject to the gauge forces of the local space time, or the gauge forces of their place of creation (our quadrant of space time)? GAH!! I NEED TO KNOW!!  (Sorry, I may be a layperson, but physics has always been an extreme interest of mine. Hell, I just spent about an hour and a half researching monopoles).The next step should be a full spectral analysis of these examined regions, to see if any alpha variations, if they are present, are causing stellar fusion to occur differently than it is occurring here, and if certain elements that should be created, given our alpha, are being created or not over there. I hope this theory is wrong though (according to Wiki people have reported alpha variations before but were the most part debunked) because if not, the numbers in the Fermi Paradox could have just gotten a lot smaller.
