  There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

    The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

    It seems like the idea that the universe’s material has to be somehow finite in depth is itself a human construction

      Why would the universe be [like this or like that]? When did a question of this kind ever been answered properly?

  I think this is the article: the-independent.com/…/hubble-space-telescope-nasa…

  Issue seems to continue to be with discrepancies in the rate of the universe’s expansion.

  “There is a key difference between the rate of the expansion of the universe as it is around us, when compared with observations from right after the Big Bang”.

  “Scientists are unable to explain that discrepancy. But it suggests there is “something weird” going in our universe, that could be the result of unknown, new physics, Nasa says”.

    More recent most promising theory, that could explain it, seems to be that the universe is just spinning somewhat.
    There go the “unknown, new physics”, if this proves to be correct…

      Two questions:

      1. Why would we think otherwise considering that everything in the universe seems to rotate from galactic clusters to galaxies to black holes to stars to planets to the brains of physicists trying to reconcile relativity and quantum?
      2. Does the math actually work out? If so, is there a known constant for the angular momentum of the universe that would explain what we’re seeing?

      Then there’s a center and expansion differs depending where we look and where we are relative to the center. And we can calculate our position in the universe that way. Is this the case?
