Absolutely amazing. Tam. Sometimes I wonder about stuff like this. So much amazing stuff out there isnt there, amongst all the chaos, sadness, and the rat race we live in.
Thats one of the coolest things ive ever seen... It may well take over my whole week checking out all the things ive never heard of before... Cheers Tam... Absolutely brilliant...
Makes me want to get my 4 inch out, it's been years. Good old Big Bang. Many years ago I did a bit of reading on how things may have started. If memory serves, I think it came down to some sort of eruption in some kind of field. Maybe a Higgs field. Dunno. A singularity then expanded. But it's interesting to see that there may have been a pre universe which had all the properties of the universe in which we live. It's an amazing subject. I think a lot will be discovered in the next few decades, that will go a long way toward giving us a better picture of how things happened.
Cyclonic, no doubt as the universe expanded you expanded with it; so much so that, according to Tam's Law, your "singularity then expanded" from only 1.15 inches to the power 9 and reached 4.04 inches in the Higgs field. Not exactly something to brag about since, in the pre-universe, you wouldn't have been able to even see it- let alone realise an "eruption."
The more I look at this Tam, the more the mind boggles about what could be going on out there. I have always held the view that we on earth are insignificant and would have to be very conceited to think that there is not more intelligent life somewhere out there. I also believe that Earth is a planet discovered by advanced aliens (Was GOD an Astronaut) but, even if that were correct, that gets no-where near to explaining where they came from. A brain blower.
Our home, the Milky Way has somewhere between 200-400 billion stars. It's estimated that there are 100-200 billion other galaxies. A super computer in Germany has put the galaxy number as high as 500 billion. These seem to be fair estimates based on what we know. But imagine if we are just one of as many universes. Theoretically, there is no reason to discount the multi universe concept, however unlikely it seems.
