When you have a 3-dimensional oil droplet hit the surface of water it rapidly spreads out into a large 2-dimensional area with very thin third dimension and then it stops spreading. Its overall volume is the same. -- I've always wondered if the high-speed inflationary period of the universe went something like that .. a tiny 10 or 11 dimensional 'hypervolume' somehow collapsing into something with 3 very large dimensions and all the other dimensions becoming really thin (yet the hypervolume is roughly the same) -- It sounds plausible to me but I've never seen anyone talk about inflation that way

Also, a thought I had about this is that maybe space itself has a very weak repulsion to itself, something that can easily be overcome by gravity, but over vast distances can create a noticable effect. Sort of like how a gas wants to spread out. Maybe, like gasses, this effect diminishes as it gets colder and what we see is increasing expansion as we look back in time at an increasingly warm universe?
@Jakob165

I like the idea that space repels itself. Sorta how like charges repel in electromagnetism. Maybe call it dark force? Since it acts on space itself and not the observable matter within it? That said, as we look further away, (further back in time) galaxies move away slower, which is why we think the expansion is accelerating. That said, it's only by like 5 nanometers per megaparsec or something like that. So it's a very very small acceleration.

Given this, we may be looking at a huge margin of error in the calculations. We do not know two VERY important variables: the rate of expansion initially, and the rate and degree to which it has changed. Without knowing these things, any attempt to calculate the expansion will be subject to extreme inaccuracy.

But how could they decide on a location for this merger? We don't know if the universe is infinite beyond the observable part of it or not-if it is, then no location is central. And, regardless, every galaxy has its own different definition of observable universe, of course, and that observable universe is also the volume in which it can experience gravitational attraction. The only way this could work is for the whole universe to be no more than one observable universe diameter (as defined at the time of the merger, not today) in diameter (with the merger happening at the center of that, which implies that we'd be at the true center of the universe), but we know that's not true as long as we're right that we'll see distant galaxies pass out of our observable universe as time goes on.

Many of the recent theories in cosmology seem like just raw speculation to me. They are based on mathematics rather than observations. Math is a great tool for modeling and describing the universe, but math itself is not reality. It is easy enough to fit an equation to existing data, but to be useful, the math also needs to be predictive of future observations and falsifiable. If the theory is unable to predict anything until a few hundred million years have passed, then it is not an especially useful theory.

math is the fundamental building block of science. without it there wouldnt be any theories or observations in the first place. so getting all triggered about it means litteraly nothing.

@@uteriel282 I completely agree that math is an essential tool for describing the universe. We would be nowhere without it. But it is also crucial to be able to test these descriptions against the observable universe. Einstein's theories were a better match to earlier observations (e.g., explaining the anomalies in the orbit of Mercury), while at the same time accurately predicting future observations. And yes, his predictions are still being tested a hundred years later. I have no quarrel per se with using math to develop new models to explain how things work -- it's essential work --but there seems to be a headline per week about "a new 5th force of nature" without news of accompanying testable observations. I know the work is hard and important -- and it doesn't mean these theories are wrong --but I'm skeptical of reaching too far beyond what we can hope to test.

I simulated a simple entropic first principles model of information once, it implied the universe doesn't expand into nothing and that there is an external frame. It also implied the rate of dark energy expansion/contraction is dependent on the evolution of other "nearby" universes in the external frame.....

I like the idea that inflation is caused by the energy released from vacuum decay. As a false vacuum (Higgs or neutrino) stabilises it releases a lot of energy during the process which causes the universe to expand but eventually slows down. Some of the previous matter is trapped in really small “bubbles” which are undetectable but constitute dark matter.

No, the universe expands because Dark Matter grows and pushes on everything. That is also why General Relativity is explained... Locations of gravity get pushed on more because of it's volume/mass. Bah im just explaining but meh. Don't mind me im sorry.

From our point in time, space is expanding. But we have no proof it will continue doing so in the distant future. That theory, of cosmic crunch or recyclable universes, has always seemed most elegant to me, while just as valid as any other theory about the future/end of the universe. Great video, Anton! As always...

thing that paper might have missed: the pulse of universe. it might be constantly expanding and contracting. it would explain why we can still see the galaxies, cause any other theory would mean we couldn't see the galaxies at all allready
@Joseph_InTheDark
2 жыл бұрын
what we see of galaxies are the past, the light we see is from millions or Billions of years ago, hence why the farthest galaxys appear so small, we are seeing them during the early universe, some could already be shifted out of our view but the light from so long ago is still in our little bubble of view

@@Joseph_InTheDark The thing is, how galaxies that should be in similar or same distances from earth based on observations, are actually way further or closer to earth, same with stars and every other object in the night sky. It does not help that our memories can easily be influenced by storytellings and fantasies. It's why scientific papers are a good read. But one thing math, or any other science for that matter, fails to explain is how both the farthest galaxies and nearer galaxies seem to exist on their own gravity, when they should have already fallen apart. What is currently explained by dark matter, may not be dark matter at all, but instead matter we are unable to detect at this very moment of time. So if the space keeps expanding and contracting at different rates, we would see different rates of expansion and contraction. However, what we are currently whitnessing, are different rates of expansion alone, and no contractions. If that's the case, the bubble we are seeing is bound to be influenced by the outside bubble we are not able to see. As a result, we may not be able to solve any of the mysteries related to dark matter or dark energy until we create a similar object, by accident, or on purpose, and observe it's effect, or until we find more clues at much smaller level. If the universe has an edge that is influencing it's inner core, kinda like the star is a mass of matter that tries to collapse in on itself, only to be held back by fusion, then what is there to say, that our universe may not be doing the same. Contracting at the inner edges we can not see, because we are at that edge, and expanding, based on matters reaction (as we understand it at the moment anyway) at the visible edge. The suns corona would be the thing we don't see, the edge of the suns core would be where we would see it. So the suns mantle is what we are seeing. What if suns mantle is our visible universe? We would not be able to see the core, because we are too close to it, but we would be able to see the coronas effect on the mantle, explaining the pulsation. Now, how do you prove that? Quite frankly, math, but it would mean, we would need to know HOW the stars burn their fuel at a much smaller level, than we do at this very moment. We don't have a baseline equation for the problem, since we have no clues even on the problem itself, and are only now beginning to find them. TL;DR: Yes, but no. Think of the universe as the star/sun, and our place in the universe at the very edge of the core of the star. We are seeing the mantle, but we are not seeing the effect of the stars corona on that mantle from our point of view, if we lived inside the sun and were smaller than quantum particles. We are only observing the movement of the mantle, without the knowledge of the corona.

I like to imagine, the cosmic web being similar to the rivers, and oceans of our world, somewhat like a theory that patterns exist in all things large, and small. A saying I use to discribe it is The fish says to the river, "why are you expanding?" The river replies back, "welcome to the ocean!" I feel we could theoretically be that fish, and we're merely discovering an ocean of the cosmic web, we may not truly know in our lifetime, or even in the existence of the human race, but still it's an interesting theory non-the-less, and makes you wonder of the lovecraftian nature of the cosmos. Although who can say, I know I just like talking about it.
