torn asunder Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 read this article on the origns of the universe - what do you think? i find it fascinating, and would love to discuss the plausibility of it. anyone care to sahre an opinion?
The_Dark Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 I'm going to have to think on that for a while. Part of me is screaming.... "They are forgetting something!" but for the life of me I'm not seeing it either.
Homicidalheathen Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 If you have no proof of a 5TH demention than how can you base a theory on it???
torn asunder Posted July 14, 2006 Author Posted July 14, 2006 If you have no proof of a 5TH demention than how can you base a theory on it??? mathematical theory, which is how most theoretical physics is initially approached...
The_Dark Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 Gravity... thats it... One of thier things is that in the current model there should be some fluctuations in the back ground gravity field... in thiers there would be none... but like... We have no way of detecting gravity.. we can see it's affect.. but not it.
phee Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 I am in the middle of reading "The Universe in A Nutshell" right now infact by Steven Hawkings
kellygrrrrrl Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 ooooo...that sounds like a good book Phee! I'd love to borrow it from you when you are done!!?? I think this theory is hooplah. It doesn't make sense to me. Somebody explain it to me with small words..... :blink

kellygrrrrrl Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 oh..... OK! Thanks anyways! SO is it good so far?
phee Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 oh.....OK! Thanks anyways! SO is it good so far? Yes... I find the concepts of Imaginary time and multiple histories pretty awesome... And now we are on black holes
kellygrrrrrl Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 Sweet... I like black holes! They're so Goth :whistling
BrassFusion Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 this theory doesn't seem any less plausible than any of the others i've heard about metaphysics and shit. it's pretty cool. but still, where could the original branes have come from? did they just always exist? or did each of them inflate from an infinitesimal point?
Hellion Posted July 17, 2006 Posted July 17, 2006 Yes... I find the concepts of Imaginary time and multiple histories pretty awesome... And now we are on black holes <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :devil They say that a sugarcube size of blackhole matter weighs trillions of tons,I would like to know how they came up with this one.

To put matter into perspective- if there were an atom the size of comerica park, its nucleus would be a marble sitting on the pitcher's mound.
