A glimpse into the past, present and future and nature of the dance of creation, by an amateur astronomer/astrophysicist in the flight of his imagination. ---- An original article by Dr. Bibhash Chakravorty. Article dedicated to scientists all over the world.
Are we closer than the first 3 minutes of Steven Weinberg to the big bang now ? If we are, we are closer to the supersymmetry of the singularity too and also closer to finding a verifiable solution to the grand unified theory, Einstein's dream !
It is very difficult to tell which came first, matter, energy, space, gravity, time and other forces of nature or from where the supersymmetric singularity came and why or in an objective grand time scale whether other singularities occurred in the past, are being formed somewhere presently or have already occurred in our future which naturally have not yet happened for us in this subjective universe.
This is like the chicken and egg, which came first ?
Let us tell our story with the infrastructure of the big bang model of creation with a twist.
It is obvious that for creation gravity had to be separated from the supersymmetry otherwise the singularity would have remained a singularity forever. This phase transition releases a colossal amount of energy which produces the suprfast expansion of space time called inflation without which the early universe would have fallen back on itself in the gravity well.
This much we know.
What caused this gravity separation ? Is it the more colossal outer pressure of the tremendous heat produced inside the small space of the crushing singularity when matter was being made exponentially and infinitely denser and denser in it's own gravity ? This is somewhat like a supernova explosion when the core temperature rises to 100 billion degree centigrade. The singularity could have produced much more heat than this.
Everybody knows that gravity makes matter more dense which produces the kinetic energy of the elementary particles which again produces heat. So it is the space time warp or gravity produced by matter and heat which are interchangeable. In our universe, at least 11 dimensions were required for creation, not to mention the other compactified ones which may be very crucial too for sustenance of this creation !
In daily life gravity is weak as we all know because it has come here by passing through the other 10 dimensions, at least. Anthropically speaking life, intelligent life wouldn't have been possible if gravity was very strong because we would have been crushed in our own weights. Now what are these 10 other dimensions, is it the division of forces of nature necessary for a fruitful, life forming creation like our universe through a law of averages?
We know only 4 forces of nature, electromagnetic, strong and weak nuclear forces and gravity. Could there be other forces too which we don't know yet.
Can matter have a consciousness of it's own which is powerful enough to warp space-time which is the reason of gravity or can that consciousness produce matter ? Or that pure consciousness reminds matter that it is powerful ? Can there be matter of some different kind in this universe apart from us with it's elementary particles aligned in such a rythmical was that it becomes powerfully conscious ?
I am sorry to say, those scientists who scoff at this Idea are actually not included amongst a sacred group of men and women called scientists.
This is not a matter of speculation, this is a matter for research because science has always been curiously looking on the verge of the known and unknown, if necessary by invoking an anthropic principle drawn out of nature and work retrograde as scientists like Fred Hoyle knows. ( Triple alpha reaction in the sun producing carbon, the most versatile element of nature producing the blue print of life. )
Well human beings and animals and living beings are basically made of matter though in a very particular manner and nature especially the brains and nervous systems and sense organs through millions of years of evolution which enables us with an intelligent, powerful consciousness so that we have improved our own lives and understanding of nature through technology, research, space travel, peeking at the universe with various telescopes and self introspection too in search of the ultimate truth.
One thing is certain, we all love nature, our spaces and this universe for it has given us an opportunity to interact and play with it in a free, unhindered individual perspective regardless of any alien/preconceived or religious ideas !
What is the ultimate basis of creation and therefore time which is a relative perception which intelligent consciousness can perceive and without that intelligent consciousness time is as good as absent, a concept applied in quantum theory while explaining Schrödinger cats experiment.
So, can a superior intelligent powerful consciousness provide us the supersymmetric singularity and it's expansion by sacrificing it's power of gravity from it's other consciousnesses ? Is this where mind and matter meet ? Carl Sagan, Lee Smolin and others have taken some bold steps in this direction.
What if this dissociation of power of gravity and consciousness be brought together again ? I am not referring to another big crunch and a closed universe with the spatial curvature falling back on itself if the cosmic density exceeds the critical density and neither am I referring to a big rip open universe with a massive quantum energy density expanding trillions of years later.
I am referring to that union in intelligent, civilised minds where their consciousness becomes aware of it's power or gravity which after all is the basic force holding us together ! It will be an age of synthesis, a dream fantasy within a dream, within a dream and so on, with infinite progression so that everything would be possible through either technology and power of the mind. The Indian Yogis of the Vedic ages and possibly before that had already proven the 2nd proposition. Nothing would be impossible, we might also be capable of creating a tachyonic universe within our own bubble where the speed of light is lowest to start with and space travel at inconceivable speeds, through quantum entanglement, which has already been verified, though for paired photons only at much shorter distances !
Science is actually a very fine art as every scientists should know that every art has a scientific background to it. And scientists should be artists drawing their inspiration from the mysteries of Nature. So we should be delivered from that science which has no inspiration in it, which is strictly governed by the rules of dogmatic logic ! Every seeker of the truth is an impressionist, an artist, a yogi and a scientist.
Everything did actually come from the singular supersymmetry, from the ONE powerhouse. From one to many. A differentiation really.
Now let's look at our universe and time with the powerful telescope of our intelligent mind.
Einstein's legacy is saying space time are linked. An easy way to look at it for analogy is, expansion or the contraction of the universe requires time. Whether expansion etc can occur instantaneously won't be discussed here because in that case the heat generated in a singularity will cause immediate big rip and no fruitful creation would be created.
We try to understand the expansion of the universe with the analogy of an expanding polka dot ( representing galaxies ) balloon. This analogy is very good upto a certain point.
From our solar system we can see the observable farthest point of our universe a few billion years before the big bang when light was created as photons in the primal system of stellar synthesis or the sentinel quasars or very old galaxies. And the expansion of the space-time fabric at the edge of the universe is accelerating due to the Lambda dark energy force as gravity weakens. Why won't we be able to see things even many millions of years after the big bang ? Because of the tardy photon formation and the fact that the initial energy of the big bang as matter antimatter collision was not in the observable spectrum. It's fossil remains as radiostatic background microwave radiation.
The expansion of the space time fabric is greatest at the edge of the universe because more the distance between us and the galaxies, more is the accelerating velocity of expansion as first observed by Edwin Hubble, the velocity given by Hubble's equation.
However at that time the acceleration ( late inflation ) was not detected, only the recession velocity. The accelerating velocity is about 1 billion light years per year.
So, except very near galaxies like Andromeda etc where we can see our present or near future we are always looking at our past in the line of our sight in this universe. So where is our present and future ?
Well present is happening right before our eyes and the future which at every moment of time is passing into the past will be seen at a future date, of course but when it has become our past !
So, where are we in this universe, at the centre, middle or edge ?
Well, if we consider the universe as a sphere then every point of it is at the edge and looking at the opposite edge in the line of sight, because every point is at the surface of the sphere like the expanding balloon and therefore there is no true centre, every point looks like one, even the edge !
Can't there be a balanced universe where it is neither expanding nor collapsing ? Yes, if the cosmic density equals critical density so that the space-time curvature at the edge is neither open or closed. This can happen in 2 ways at least. If the repulsive force of dark energy is balanced with the cohesive force of matter or dark matter or according to the Indian version of creation in a steady state universe matter/dark matter is continuously formed which balances the expansion and thus prevents the big rip.
Now, let us consider the analogy of a worm hole or black hole, a Einstein-Rosen bridge bridging two far points in the universe.
The space time warp or gravity due to dense matter is so much that the worm hole connects distant curved space-time regions, where we can theoretically travel very fast, otherwise almost impossible with our present technology.
Without being a perfect sphere our universe may be like the curved layers of a spherical pile of clothes and a wormhole could connect 2 space-time regions or a space time region with the interdimensional space between 2 or multiple universes, depending on the exit point of the worm hole, it's space-time warp etc. Remember that light follows the curvature of space time so that all the layers are visible. Then what is in the centre ? Actually there is no centre, everything has been flattened to the surface of the sphere in those layers by inflation of the supersymmetry by the energy released by gravity separation. This is why the space time fabric is flat though not in 2 dimensions !
So our universe may be like at least a 4 dimensional string coiled upon each other like a pile of snakes with an added time dimension !
This string may be stretched and broken to smaller and smaller pieces until they almost cease to exist in a big rip or contracted to form another singularity in a big crunch or might vibrate in a stable manner in a balanced universe.
Another aspect of heat and temperature makes me wonder !
Can there be a temperature below absolute zero, where atomic vibrations stop with zero kinetic energy ? Can there be negative or virtual vibrations causing a negative temperature below absolute zero ?
What holds together multiverses in the interdimensional space ? Some superglue ? Or is there another kind of matter and gravity that doesn't work by space-time warping ? Is time absolute in that space ? What consciousness works there ? Another thing, if there isn't any interdimensional space, where are the soap bubble multiverses expanding or collapsing into ? Oh, your very question is wrong, it is creating space by itself.----- Please don't give me this crap answer. How can an innocent question be wrong ? Accept the fact that you don't know the answer ! It is expanding into nothing. --- Another crap. What is nothing ? Nothing can exist only in the mind when the mind doesn't ever think of anything worthwhile !
That by the interdimensional infinitesimal or infinite void was hidden our empty spaces before creation and the void itself was first engendered by the heat of desire in it's own singularity, within another void and so on, until we come to the deep slumber of the ONE being !
Another question frequently asked is about time travel. I will try to answer this without taking the help of a supermassive black hole or space travel at a speed approximate to light speed.
Since we are looking at our past in this universe, your past comes near you and haunts you in a big crunch until it crosses your present when you cease to exist, the grandfather paradox. In a big rip your past flies away from you until it engulfs your present, again you cease to exist without any future. Time is POWER like money, ho, ho, ho, and yes it also has the courage to change everything for the better and the best and for good !
So in this universe, our present and future bubbles are restricted.
A stable present and therefore future is only possible in a balanced universe. That's why it is said, live in the present so that you can enjoy the future without ruing the past !
Those who think that we have almost come to the end of discovery and inventions, may I remind them that we might just be at the beginning of discovery of those wonders and it is our necessity and not a matter of lazy, sterile, non-creative, worthless pursuits. Our body and soul has infinite mysteries and so is creation. We can only create what is inside us. This very fact provides the inspiration to create. Creative persons know this fact. And the creative possibilities are therefore infinite because we are absolutely unlimited within the ONE !
THE EAGLE HAS FINALLY LANDED.
