  Experimental tests of homogeneous-universe classical standpoint cosmology are
proposed after presentation of conceptual considerations that encourage this
radical departure from the standard model. Among predictions of the new model
are standpoint age equal to Hubble time, energy-density parameter $\Omega_0 = 2
- \sqrt{2} =.586$, and relations between redshift, Hubble-scale distribution of
matter and galaxy luminosity and angular diameter. These latter relations
coincide with those of the standard model for zero deceleration. With eye to
further tests, geodesics of the non-Riemannian standpoint metric are explicitly
given. Although a detailed thermodynamic ``youthful-standpoint'' approximation
remains to be developed (for particle mean free path small on standpoint
scale), standpoint temperature depending only on standpoint age is a natural
concept, paralleling energy density and redshift that perpetuates thermal
spectrum for cosmic background radiation. Prospects for primordial
nucleosynthesis are promising.
