Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the concept of the multiverse and its potential relationship with dark energy and black holes. Participants explore speculative ideas about the nature of our universe, the possibility of other universes, and the implications of black holes in cosmology.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant suggests that our Big Bang could be just another singularity, proposing that a black hole might create a dent in the spacetime fabric, allowing dark energy to flow from another universe.
  • Another participant references Lee Smolin's idea that black holes may spawn new universes, with each universe having slightly different fundamental constants.
  • There is a notion that the parameters of our universe may have been optimized for black hole formation through a process likened to 'cosmic natural selection'.
  • One participant speculates that dark energy could travel faster than light, raising questions about the propagation of light from singularities.
  • There is a humorous exchange about the influence of psychedelics on the original post and usernames, indicating a light-hearted tone in parts of the discussion.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express a mix of speculative ideas without reaching consensus. Some agree on the intriguing nature of Smolin's theories, while others present alternative thoughts on dark energy and its properties. The discussion remains unresolved with multiple competing views.

Contextual Notes

Participants' claims are based on speculative reasoning and personal interpretations, with no formal mathematical or physical validations provided. The discussion reflects a variety of assumptions and lacks a clear framework for evaluating the proposed ideas.

i will write down some stuff here which onr night i wrote down while stoned ..lol

understanding is a complete fail ? i have no knowledge except what i seen on tv .. after few hours what i wrote down isn't making any sense to myself ... where did i even find those words :lol:

our big bang is just another singularity . correct ?

why can't it be ? it could just another singularity . i believe a dent in the space time fabric caused by a black hole rips through the multdimensional multi verse which made it possible to transfer stuffs through the black hole, and the dark energy itself flowed to our universe from another multiverse ..

and there you have it , on the otherside of the black hole the ever expanding universe with time as the 4rth dimension ...

and we are the byproducts of a universe with 4 dimensions and four forces .. just a thought

think of the probability in that

a collapsing star would have a great influence on the space time fabric around it .. and it curves so much that somehow the graviton interacts (made to repel ?one mega force )with each other creating a singualrityis it possible that the spacetime fabric curvature comes close enough for the gravitons to interact during the collapsing of a star ?our big bang and our universe could be one among millions of other big bangs in the membrane

Will the philosophy forum take this thread?
Not sure where psychedelic OP’s should be moved to. Homework?

Lee Smolin has suggested black holes may form new universes in such a manner. He further speculates the parameters of our universe have been optimized to produce black holes via 'cosmic natural selection'. It's an interesting idea.
 
thanks Chronos , its nice to know what i have written down that night isn't a complete fail .. and i guess i like to learn more about smolin's universe , which i haven't heard of before

The theory surmises that a collapsing black hole causes the emergence of a new universe on the "other side", whose fundamental constant parameters (speed of light, Planck length and so forth) may differ slightly from those of the universe where the black hole collapsed. Each universe therefore gives rise to as many new universes as it has black holes. Thus the theory contains the evolutionary ideas of "reproduction" and "mutation" of universes, but has no direct analogue of natural selection. However, given any universe that can produce black holes that successfully spawn new universes, it is possible that some number of those universes will reach heat death with unsuccessful parameters. So, in a sense, fecundity cosmological natural selection is one where universes could die off before successfully reproducing, just as any biological being can die without having children

exactly what i had in my mind :D
 
I take it you made up that user name while stoned too... :-p Is a hobbist like a hobbit?
 
:smile:

yea i guess so , but it was supposed to be hobbyist .. typo under the influence mate :D

i think dark energy travels faster than light itself ... otherwise how far would the first light from a singualrity go to ? errrrrr
