Let me preface this by saying that I have very little knowledge (basically zero) about astrophysics, just like to learn, have been reading some Hawking and have a question.
I was reading about formation of universes and stars imploding, exploding etc.. the miracle of life in star form. I was thinking that theoretically somewhere out in infinity there should be some mass that is LITERALLY the most dense, heaviest, however it is you astrophysicists have tagged planets as fat. Would this hyperdense space then have a gravitational pull, however slight, on all galaxies? I mean I'm talking at such insane distances that it's pull would be nanofractions of nanofractions. Like so slight that over billions of years galaxies that are thousands of light years away have moved towards it a billionth of an inch. Would galaxies "close" to such a mass accelerate towards it quickly? Would such a fiery mess absorb entire planets... galaxies? Over the course of infinite time would this mass accelerate very distant galaxies to it at exponential speeds? Would this lend credence to a higher power at the center of all creation?

Your question is not clear my friend,you want to talk about the Big Bang? Or inflation theory?
there is a good cours by the Teaching Company (The Dark Side of the Universe) check it out
 
OK, so this has bugged me for a while about the equivalence principle and the black hole information paradox. If black holes "evaporate" via Hawking radiation, then they cannot exist forever. So, from my external perspective, watching the person fall in, they slow down, freeze, and redshift to "nothing," but never cross the event horizon. Does the equivalence principle say my perspective is valid? If it does, is it possible that that person really never crossed the event horizon? The...
In this video I can see a person walking around lines of curvature on a sphere with an arrow strapped to his waist. His task is to keep the arrow pointed in the same direction How does he do this ? Does he use a reference point like the stars? (that only move very slowly) If that is how he keeps the arrow pointing in the same direction, is that equivalent to saying that he orients the arrow wrt the 3d space that the sphere is embedded in? So ,although one refers to intrinsic curvature...
So, to calculate a proper time of a worldline in SR using an inertial frame is quite easy. But I struggled a bit using a "rotating frame metric" and now I'm not sure whether I'll do it right. Couls someone point me in the right direction? "What have you tried?" Well, trying to help truly absolute layppl with some variation of a "Circular Twin Paradox" not using an inertial frame of reference for whatevere reason. I thought it would be a bit of a challenge so I made a derivation or...
