Entropy is only a problem if you are talking about this universe. A bouncing universe can pass along information as long as you don't mind the universe having a uniform tempture.
Thank you. I got an answer out of you.
Also, dark matter can't be traveling uniformly at the speed of light (like photons) because they clump together in galaxies and clusters (like Zwicky's initial observations), or more clearly in something like the bullet cluster...
Right. I agree there could be an infinitely bouncing universe and it cannot be disproved by using the Second Law.
Honestly, I only object to the idea of a bouncing universe because of the possibility that there may be a repeating one. I have had a great life but I am such a complainer that I...
Its nice that your title is completely unrelated to your post.
Then why do you address my point that photons could be dark matter.
1. You say there is no connection between missing mass and dark matter.

If no information can go from one cycle to the next then there can be no evidence from a previous cycle that there has even been one repetition. If that is the case then while the proposition may be true it is meaningless.
Well that is my question... would "information" be preserved from cycle to cycle? If each cycle is separated by a singularity, then it seems that all information would be erased. I don't think this entails each cycle being identical, since a singularity is a point of lawlessness and literally...
A finite number of cycles may be possible but if we can know the number of cycles that the universe has had then each cycle has added some information. If information is entropy and there were, an infinite number of cycles, would that mean an infinite amount of entropy has been added?
If each...
Photons must have a certain amount of energy to be absorbed by an electron. A photon with a little too much energy to be absorbed by one electron and not enough to be absorbed by another would be invisible to all electrons and everything else. However such photons still have energy so they would...

You can have an infinitely bouncing universe but not an infinitely repeating one. In order for it to repeat information from the previous universe must be available. As information is entropy, entropy must increase. If there is no build up of entropy each bounce is...
