To us volumes of spacetime look to be filled (supermassive black holes) and empty (outer space). That view couldn’t be further from the truth. There is no such thing as completely empty space and no such thing as completely filled space. And here’s why: An empty volume is a description that tells us where a …
DID THE BIG BANG CREATE MATTER AND ENERGY?
Rose Love asked this question in QUORA.com: The law of conservation of energy states that energy and matter cannot be created and cannot be destroyed. While many scientists believe that the Big Bang created matter and energy. So which one is correct? The Big Bang, as it’s called, is the result of some universal behavior …
Consciousness: Step by Step
Where should I start a topic that talks about figuring out what consciousness is all about? I remember when I first saw THE MATRIX with my hubby in a movie theater. Of course, I thought, all the things we see out there in the outside world are virtual realities. It’s our perspective on things (that …
Boundaries of Our Universe
I’m posting this from the Quora.com site to save the explanation of what relationships are all about, what systems in the universe are all about, and the, perhaps, most important aspects of such systems. When did time really begin? Did time begin before or after the beginning of the universe? Nothing, including space-time, exists except …
The Creation of Space
* * Published experiments found on this website are proportional to what happens as the universe expands due to mass-density instabilities in the universe. The exact steps in the exact solution for the density differences (instability) of our expanding universe is given in Hydrodynamic and Hydromagnetic Stability (International Series of Monographs on Physics): Chandrasekhar, S.: 9780486640716: …
Perspective: Function and Form
My parents decided not to expect me to join a temple or church. They admitted they didn’t know anything definitive about God and The Universe. Some of the last things they said to me (before they died) suggested that they hadn’t found their truth about the ultimate. They asked me then what I had found …
Does Time Exist [part 1]
Does Time Exist? Does what we think of as TIME, the duration between each of our samplings of the universe, really exist? I like to start with the Uncertainty Principle, posited by Werner Heisenberg. To me, UNCERTAINTY (short for this principle) refers to PERSPECTIVE. What we mean by PERSPECTIVE is the formal method we use …
When Does One Become Two?
If A Tree Falls: When One Becomes Two I don’t know if I started a former blog post out like this or not. It’s an interesting thought experiment that most of us are familiar with: “If a tree falls in the woods, and no one is there to experience it, does it even …
THE STRUCTURE OF CONSCIOUSNESS
How Might Consciousness In The Universe Be Structured? The Universe (the complete and unexplained What Is Behind What Is) may be vastly different than the way we think of it (as Our Universe, the one we can detect through our senses). Human intellect divides up the world or universe into what we think of as …
