Am i correct in saying that most of the galaxies, if not all are rotating around a super massive black hole and if so does that mean that black holes are eventually going to suck all the matter inside their galaxies like water getting sucked down a plug hole ..read more

You know, I'm not a scientist, just someone who spends a lot of time pondering things, so take what I say with a grain of salt. But here's a thought that's been bouncing around in my head lately: could gravity be an emergent property of the entire universe moving through higher dimensions? Hear me out. Think about it: nothing in our universe seems to sit still. Everything's in motion, and those movements seem to give rise to all sorts of emergent effects. Take electrons zipping around in atoms, for instance—that movement creates electricity. Or consider the movement of air molecules, which gi ..read more

There are two rather simple and straight forward calculations to demonstrate the age of the universe, and possibly disprove some misconceptions Does anyone want to play? A good calculator is needed because the numbers are BIG ..read more

If so, the light we see from stars and other objects would be spaghettified and seem further away than it really is, and challenge the age and size of our universe ..read more

Interesting, but.... 'Is the Multiverse Real? Why One Force Still Baffles Most Physicists' : MSN My take: There are seven fundamental forces in pyramidical fashion: 4, 2, and "1 ring to rule them all", so to speak (One force, the apex of the pyramid to bind them all), the 'Life Force'. The seven are fundamental to the "Infinite MULTIVERSE Universe" and the One, the apex 'Life Force' binding the pyramid of fundamental forces to unification, the primordial soup ..read more

if our scientific research and explanation about the cosmos bursting into existence from a singularity and the big bang theory is correct then everything that is in our universe including life was created at that moment therefore we are all connected to the cosmos in a fundamental way or life or life force is a by product of the coalescing universal evolution either way we are part of it so in my opinion our universe is our creator therefore is our god ..read more

Carlo Rovelli in his book "White Holes" wrestles with time. He says the past is 'written' and the future is 'open'. These are my words and my interpretation. I disagree on both counts! I will just address one for now; the future. The idea that the future is 'open' (implying anything can happen) is, to me, incorrect. The future is simply a variety of possibilities that arise from history. The past restricts the openness of the future. It seems then that the future has more reality than the past in that the only consequence of the past is how it has "set up" the future(s). It has restricted th ..read more

Olber′s paradox, which was first formulated by the German physicist ands astronomer Heinrich Olbers, states that the sky is not uniformly bright although it contains, to all intents and purposes, an infinite number of stars. In other words going strictly by the facts, the night sky should be as bright as day, the paradox lies in the fact that this is not the case. But does the present day explanation that Olber′s paradox exists because the Universe is expanding and that light from distant stars has not yet reached us, make sense? Keeping in mind that Olber's paradox had been formulated in 1823 ..read more
