Why August 2004 at 4 am Vancouver Island Canada time Space appeared to be very close to the earth you Could see giant stars and watch the galaxies swirl without a telescope no substances were involved?

It is difficult to accept the "no substances were involved" statement in connection to the rest. Perhaps you were in a meditative state, and imagined it?
"Space"officially begins 60 miles (100 kilometers) above the ground. For practical purposes, we consider "space" to be about twice that high; at 60 miles, there's still enough atmosphere to impede the passage of spacecraft. And we have NEVER seen the galaxies "swirling"; a galactic rotation takes hundreds of millions of years.
Giant stars are easily visible even without a telescope. Betelgeuse, the red giant star at the shoulder of the constellation Orion, is only about 550 light-years away.

What galaxies do you have to see with a telescope?
ALL of them, except the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxies.
What is the name of the telescope that they use to see galaxies?
the hubble telescope edwin hubble :)
Will the SDSS telescope map out 100 billion galaxies in the universe?
No, because it will be impossible for the SDSS telescope to map out all 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
How are galaxies investigated?
galaxies are investigated in certain ways such as..... 1. Telescope. 2. Radio telescope. 3. Infra red telescope. 4. Gamma telescope. 5. Pure physics. 6. Mars and Lunar landers. 7. Fly-by missions
What is important about the Hubble telescope's discovery that there is a red shift in the spectra of galaxies?
The Hubble telescope did not discover that there is a red shift in the spectra of Galaxies. The telescope is named after the American astronomer, Edwin Hubble, who discovered the phenomenon in the 1920s.
Will the Hubble Space Telescope map out 100 billion galaxies in the universe?
No, because it will be impossible for the Hubble Space Telescope to map out all 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
Can all 100 billion galaxies be taken with the SDSS telescope?
No.
Will the Hubble Space Telescope capture an image of 100 billion galaxies in the universe into one picture?
The Hubble Space Telescope is a space telescope that was carried into orbit by a Space Shuttle in 1990 and remains in operation. Although it has taken photos from other galaxies, it does not have the capability of capturing a single image of 100 billion galaxies on one photo.
What number of galaxies are in hubble field?
They are literally "uncountable"; every time we improve the telescope, we see more and more galaxies.
What can the Hubble telescope see?
You can see Earth, Mars, the Moon and galaxies!
How are galaxy's found?
At least 3 or 4 galaxies can be seen with the naked eye. Other galaxies can be seen if you watch through a telescope. Basically, in any direction you look, there are galaxies.
How do you study astronomy on your own?
By using a telescope to study stars, planets, and galaxies.
