It can be truly said that this
Blogger became a Believer in a Divine Creator while reading Stephen Hawking’s
tome, A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME. This Blogger was a paragon of scientific
secularism until he got to the final chapters; in those chapters, Hawking asked
his reader to believe that the whole universe was created in a Big Bang, from
material no bigger than a pin head, in a nanosecond. Hawking also asked his
Reader to imagine a time before the Big Bang in which there was no Time.
When this Blogger read Hawking, he
remembered a line from that wondrous German film, WINGS OF DESIRE, in which the
fallen angel says:” Time cures all, but
perhaps time itself is the disease.”
It is all about Time, and Time is
not a natural phenomena. If it were, the laws of physics would apply; which
means Mankind would be able to go back in Time, or forward in Time, fairly easily.
But we can’t; even if we built a Time machine, we could only go forward,
because Time is an arrow, going only one way. Time does not follow the rules of
physics. Time was endowed with quirky traits. Who else but God is quirky in
extremis?
Time introduced Death, the Death of
men, Beasts, Dinosaurs and planets.
Who else but God would introduce a shelf
life on rocks, matter and flesh?
A short time ago a team
of Canadian and Egyptian cosmologists conjured up a theory that the expanding
universe will soon stop expanding, and then begin to contract.
“The equations in their model predict that the expansion of the
universe will come to a halt and then will immediately be followed by a
contracting phase.….This new cosmological model does away with
such singularity. The big bang singularity can therefore also be avoided
by using the modified GUP-corrections to the cosmology.
In their cosmology model, the cyclic nature of the universe occurs as a result of incorporating quantum effects into a cosmological model of the universe.
Prof Faizal explained that even though there are many different mind-bending approaches to quantum gravity, like string theory and loop quantum gravity, what most of these different approaches have in common is that there is a minimum length below which space does not exist.'....physics/asstronomy.com."
To solve the seemingly
insolvable problems of astrophysics and cosmology, physicists have developed
the Theory of Multiple Universes.
“….In the 1980s, Andrei Linde, a scientist from the Lebedev Physical Institute
in Russia, developed the theory of multiple universes. He is now a professor at
Stanford University.
Linde
explained: “Space
consists of many inflating spheres, which give rise to similar spheres, and
those, in turn, produce spheres in even greater numbers, and so on to infinity.
In the universe, they are spaced apart. They are not aware of each other’s
existence. But they represent parts of the same physical universe.“
This Blogger is a
skeptic of multiple universes. Do the
multiple universes have the same physical order? If they don’t, how were the
different Orders formulated? Or the different Disorders? And if
they do have the same order, who created the universal order in the multiple
universes?
Our universe, the one
scientists say should have been destroyed by anti-matter at the BIG
BANG has order; we know that from ENTANGLEMENT, Einstein’s spooky things, a
divine Order, in which information travels faster than light.
At this point in time, this Blogger
believes that astrophysics, and cosmology has confirmed that:
a) God exists.
b) God created Time.
Now we know something else: God
created CONFUSION.
“There
was , you might say, a disturbance in the Force.
Long,
long ago, when the universe was only about 100,000 years old — a buzzing,
expanding mass of particles and radiation — a strange new energy field switched
on. That energy suffused space with a kind of cosmic antigravity, delivering a
not-so-gentle boost to the expansion of the universe.
Then,
after another 100,000 years or so, the new field simply winked off, leaving no
trace other than a speeded-up universe.
So
goes the strange sounding story being promulgated by a handful of
astronomers from Johns Hopkins University. In a bold and speculative leap into
the past, the team has posited the existence of this field to explain an
astronomical puzzle: the universe seems to be expanding faster than it
should be.
The cosmos is
expanding only about 9 percent more quickly than theory prescribes. But this
slight-sounding discrepancy has intrigued astronomers, who think it might be
revealing something new about the universe.
….At
a recent meeting in Chicago, Josh Frieman, a theorist at the Fermi National
Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Ill., asked: “At what point do we claim
the discovery of new physics?”
Now
ideas are popping up. Some researchers say the problem could be solved by
inferring the existence of previously unknown subatomic particles. Others,
such as the Johns Hopkins group, are invoking new kinds of energy fields.
Adding to the
confusion, there already is a force field — called dark energy — making
the universe expand faster. And a new, controversial report suggests that this
dark energy might be getting stronger and denser, leading to a future in which
atoms are ripped apart and time ends.
Thus far,
there is no evidence for most of these ideas. If any turn out to be right,
scientists may have to rewrite the story of the origin, history and, perhaps,
fate of the universe.
Or
it could all be a mistake………Generations of great astronomers have come to grief
trying to measure the universe. At issue is a number called the Hubble
constant, named after Edwin Hubble, the Mount Wilson astronomer who in 1929
discovered that the universe is expanding.
As
space expands, it carries galaxies away from each other like the raisins in a
rising cake. The farther apart two galaxies are, the faster they will fly away
from each other. The Hubble constant simply says by how much.
….
in 2001…..a team…. reported a value of 72. For every megaparsec farther away
from us that a galaxy is, it is moving 72 kilometers per second faster……
cosmologists are off to the game that Lloyd Knox, an astrophysicist from the
University of California, Davis, called “cosmological Whac-a-Mole” at the
recent Chicago meeting: attempting to fix the model of the early universe, to
make it expand a little faster without breaking what the model already does
well.
One approach,
some astrophysicists suggest, is to add more species of lightweight subatomic
particles, such as the ghost like neutrinos, to the early universe.
(Physicists already recognize three kinds of neutrinos, and argue whether there
is evidence for a fourth variety.) These would give the universe more room to
stash energy, in the same way that more drawers in your dresser allow you to
own more pairs of socks. Thus invigorated, the universe would expand faster,
according to the Big Bang math, and hopefully not mess up the microwave baby
picture.
A more drastic
approach, from the Johns Hopkins group, invokes fields of exotic
anti-gravitational energy. The idea exploits an aspect of string theory, the
putative but unproven “theory of everything” that posits that the elementary
constituents of reality are very tiny, wriggling strings.
String theory
suggests that space could be laced with exotic energy fields associated with
lightweight particles or forces yet undiscovered. Those fields, collectively
called quintessence, could act in opposition to gravity, and could change over
time — popping up, decaying or altering their effect, switching from repulsive
to attractive.
The team
focused in particular on the effects of fields associated with hypothetical
particles called axions. Had one such field arisen when the universe was about
100,000 years old, it could have produced just the right amount of energy to
fix the Hubble discrepancy…. They refer to this theoretical force as “early
dark energy.”
…..
the smart money is still on cosmic confusion. Michael Turner, a veteran
cosmologist at the University of Chicago and the organizer of a recent airing
of the Hubble tensions, said, “Indeed, all of this is going over all of our
heads. We are confused and hoping that the confusion will lead to something
good!”
Early
dark energy appeals to some cosmologists because it hints at a link to, or
between, two mysterious episodes in the history of the universe. As Dr. Riess
said, “This is not the first time the universe has been expanding too fast.”
The
first episode occurred when the universe was less than a trillionth of a
trillionth of a second old. At that moment, cosmologists surmise, a violent
ballooning propelled the Big Bang; in a fraction of a trillionth of a second,
this event — named “inflation” by the cosmologist Alan Guth, of M.I.T. —
smoothed and flattened the initial chaos into the more orderly universe
observed today.
Nobody knows what drove inflation.
The
second episode is unfolding today: cosmic expansion is speeding up. But why?
The issue came to light in 1998, when two competing teams of astronomers asked
whether the collective gravity of the galaxies might be slowing the expansion
enough to one day drag everything together into a Big Crunch.
To
great surprise, they discovered the opposite: the expansion was accelerating
under the influence of an anti-gravitational force later called dark
energy…..Dark energy comprises 70 percent of the mass-energy of the universe.
And, spookily, it behaves very much like a fudge factor
known as the cosmological constant, a cosmic repulsive force that Einstein inserted in his equations a century ago
thinking it would keep the universe from collapsing under its own weight. He
later abandoned the idea, perhaps too soon. Under the influence of dark energy,
the cosmos is now doubling in size every 10 billion years — to what end, nobody
knows.
Early
dark energy, the force invoked by the Johns Hopkins group, might represent a
third episode of antigravity taking over the universe and speeding it up.
Perhaps all three episodes are different manifestations of the same underlying
tendency of the universe to go rogue and speed up occasionally……
If
so, it would mean that the current manifestation of dark energy is not Einstein’s
constant after all. It might wink off one day. That would relieve astronomers,
and everybody else, of an existential
nightmare regarding
the future of the universe. If dark energy remains constant, everything outside
our galaxy eventually will be moving away from us faster than the speed of
light, and will no longer be visible. The universe will become lifeless and
utterly dark.
But
if dark energy is temporary — if one day it switches off — cosmologists and
metaphysicians can all go back to contemplating a sensible tomorrow.
…..far
from switching off, the dark energy currently in the universe actually has
increased over cosmic time,….. If this keeps up, the universe could end one day
in what astronomers
call the Big Rip, with atoms
and elementary particles torn asunder — perhaps the ultimate
cosmic catastrophe.
…One
interpretation of the results is that dark energy is not constant after all,
but is changing, growing denser and thus stronger over cosmic time. It so
happens that this increase in dark energy also would be just enough to resolve
the discrepancy in measurements of the Hubble constant.
The
bad news is that, if this model is right, dark energy may be in a particularly
virulent and — most physicists say — implausible form called phantom energy….”
As
the universe expands, the push from phantom energy would grow without bounds,
eventually overcoming gravity and tearing apart first Earth, then atoms…………NEW
YORK TIMES.”
The following is excerpted from that Blog:
“….. Astrophysics is the easiest path to believing in the existence of God.
Lately, the only thing which astrophysics has been doing is proving the existence of a Creator, a God.
....Astrophysics is close to proving that Divine Mankind is the most intelligent life in the Universe, because intelligent life on Earth is the oldest intelligent life in the Universe because of GRBs. (The inexplicable THE GREAT LEAP FORWARD, in which mankind learned language and became Divine in practice is 50,000 years ago).
....The latest developments in quantum theory are leading astrophysics to the conclusion God exists…..Supposedly the speed of light is the fastest thing in the universe, according to Einstein.
However, within the quantum theory there is the worm of ENTANGLEMENT, forever interlocking the fates of subatomic particles, regardless of their separation. So if a photon on one side of the galaxy spins up, an instant later on the other side of the galaxy its twin photon will spin down …..Suggesting that INFORMATION TRAVELS FASTER THAN LIGHT.
This was very upsetting to Einstein, because the suggestion that information travels faster than light is a no-no in his special theory of relativity.
He dismissed it as unworthy “spooky things”, and invented the concept of hidden variables. Hidden variables are mystical science, much like miracles; consider them miracles for physicists. Their sole purpose is to find an explanation within the universal speed limit of light to explain the speed of information traveling above the universal speed limit.
European physicists did a test which banned Einstein’s hidden variables from the lexicon of physics. They proved mystical things are indeed happening in the speed of information, unexplainable by any scientific mumbo jumbo like hidden variables.
Einstein’s spooky things
are God’s mysteries; ENTANGLEMENT may well be predestination pre- ordered by a
Creator.
CERN is the European Organization for Nuclear research, it operates the largest particle physics laboratory in the world at the Swiss/French border.
It was CERN that discovered the Higgs Boson-the God Particle.
CERN came close to announcing the existence of God, by announcing that the Universe should not exist.
“One of the great mysteries of modern physics is why antimatter did not destroy the Universe at the beginning of time.
….All
of our observations find a complete symmetry between matter and
antimatter, which is why the universe should not actually exist,” says
Christian Smorra, a physicist at CERN’s Baryon–Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment
(BASE) collaboration.
“An
asymmetry must exist here somewhere but we simply do not understand where the
difference is.”….The standard model predicts the Big Bang should have
produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter – but that’s a combustive
mixture that would have annihilated itself, leaving nothing behind to make
galaxies or planets or people….cosmosmagazine.”
Readers, Science,
Physics, astrophysicists, and cosmologists are on the verge of proving
the Universe, and Mankind SHOULD NOT EXIST.
But the Universe does exist.
What greater proof is there?
The Universe exists
where and when it should not exist means that God exists.
Last week, astrophysicists announced another mystery, another something which should not exist in an Universe which should not exist, but does exist, a galaxy without DARK MATTER.
....…What astrophysics is proving is this- that the Universe which exists even though it should not exist, has too many consistencies (mathematical principles applicable though out the Universe) abiding with too many anomalies ( Galaxies without Dark Matter, ENTANGLEMENT) not to have been created by a Creative Divinity……THE MAXEY CHRONICLES.”
For those Readers of this Blog with
a Biblical bent, Astrophysics, cosmology is at a Tower of Babel inflection point. According
to the Biblical story, Mankind spoke a common language. Mankind then decided to
build a tower which could reach Heaven. In response, God confounded their
speech, so they can no longer understand each other, and the tower was never
built, maintaining Heaven’s property value.
Cosmology has taught Mankind this; it is God
who created Confusion, both in Mankind’s personal lives and in the cosmos.
Every cosmological discovery drives Mankind
deeper into Confusion. What greater
evidence of God’s existence do we need?
