Versus a hole containing a "blob"?

Don't tell me the Blob is coming!

Prof. it is very important that we know what happened prior to the big bang. This might tell us if the antimatter we see today is an abberation of the big bang. Did something go wrong at the big bang that created the anti matter?

Hi Dipayankar;

Unless you are God I don't think we'll ever know what happened before the big bang. Physicists and even the Pope fear to tread on that path.

P.S. Linda and I are off to Vegas for a long weekend. I'll post on my return.

I don't fear treading along it!

It's just such a difficult subject because it's like determining the nature of a bomb from a reference point which is inside a piece of shrapnel from the bomb... WHILE IT'S EXPLODING!

[dipayankar]

Some people are indeed trying to explore what transpired prior to the Big Bang. My take is that this is a cyclic universe where mass and energy are conserved...

Hi Dipayankar;

I really like the cyclic universe theory myself. It allows for an eternal universe periodically being created and compacted. Problem is the best evidence is for an eternally expanding universe. Though there is still much more information yet to be determined.

I also like the reincarnation belief, perhaps a cyclic soul. The problem is that I don't know if we will ever know if it is heaven/hell, reincarnation, oblivion, etc.?

Best,

Pat

The eternally expanding Universe has a big question mark for me.

What happens to the mass and energy after the big freeze. Does the mass and energy go on expanding? Where does it get the energy to expand forever? From Dark energy? How does dark energy sustain itself??

Any idea?

I take it in this question you are postulating the end of expand but it is unclear reading for me with the second sentence Dip.

Where does it get the energy to expand forever?

Where did it get the energy is the question. Absolute motion value at -1 to event of release and the value on a degraded scalar there after.

From Dark energy? How does dark energy sustain itself??

The above answer removes the dark energy ponder.

What is dark energy but retro substance in a state equivalent to what was before, what did reach the -1 state of density and motion and then ...effected by the event as having the event pass it by and go through into space it is. But this is only my best guess from the all the hookah ... thus; i too would read other ponder on this.

Kind regards graham

Hi Dippy

That's the attraction of a model which has black holes consisting of matter and associated white (antimatter) holes on the other side. The matter and antimatter can form and destroy eachother as often or a much as they like without disturbing the balance and hence the conservation laws.

PS - the expansion of the universe is an illusion (IMHO)

[dipayankar]

So should dark energy be. It does seem an illusion to me.
