Big Bang

[Bibs]

It's all wrong, allegedly.

 

The whole universe is a 3d projection on the event horizon of a 4d black hole. Makes much more sense...

I'm happy with it - it'll ruin the day for some sanctimonious Mensa primadonnas I have the misfortune to know.

Say what to who now?

Which just proves that you shouldn't pop crystal meth while watching Interstellar

[s4simon]

I' m particularly drawn to the equation (4.13) on page 11 of the pdf doc.

Makes you think...

WTF.

[Sparky]

Indubitably.  It made me think I'm getting low on rum.

I like Penny...

So we're all just holograms, then?  

 

Or holographs, I mean?

 

Like this?

the universe emerges as a spherical 3-brane out of the formation of a 5d Schwarzschild black hole

 

 

I knew it!!

 

 

Ultimately, an entire new world might emerge "Out of the White Hole", and replace

Big Bang with a mere mirage of a non-existent past

 

I just got over being afraid of black holes, now I have to worry about white holes, too!!??

 

I know for a fact that the Nacho Cheese Dorito dust on my fingers is real...

So being a physics nerd makes me special, does it? Oh dear. 

 

Who knew?

He took his time. I emailed him this just after my stroke. Slowcoach!

Quote from the article:

But most importantly, for the point of view of theoretical science, their proposal makes predictions that can be tested. One of those is that there should be fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background radiation, the echo of the big bang. They admit, however, that this has not been seen in the latest data from the European Space Agency’s Planck observatory.

 

Hypothesis are assumed true until they're proven wrong.....

I have been saying this for years but nobody ever listens....

So what exactly is the turtle meant to be standing on now then?

It's not "standing on", it's "supended from"
