    Okay so here's what I think :

    The apocalypse causes The big bang,
    Big bang creates universe

    Universe gets stretched until the apocalypse happens.
    Once apocalypse happens it creates the Big Bang

    Time is looped

    Nope. The universe expands and then just dies. Everything dies eventually.

    Wasn't there an episode of Red Dwarf where they found themselves in an alternative universe where the big bang was reversed and everyone went backwards in time.

    I do remember the final scene where the cat went for a dump without realising what that meant.:eek:

    Irish stoners and acid freaks are very respectful of the 4.20 rule. It takes seven hours of solid baking to get to this stage.

    Give him another hour and he'll make it to 'Are we all just figments of a multiversal creature's imagination?' and maybe a further 20 or 30 minutes until it's 'this is just a virtual reality game being played on us and only one of us is real, but which one???'

    What you're describing is known as the Big Rip (Joke about Mary Harney or something here), only minus the Groundhog Day elements (Comment about bankers here).

    Yep - familiar with the big rip hence mentioned in my OP.
    What happens if you stretch the $hite out of a baloon. ?

    it will explode in yer face.

    what happens when you stretch the universe ?
    it will explode creating a universal explosion whcih starts off the Big Bang and time is looped.

    All my posts can be taken as FACT btw :rolleyes:

    Yes, but a balloon doesn't magically come back as another or cause nearby balloons to burst by grieving the loss of one of their own. It's destroyed.

    well we have gravity on earth, no gravity in space.
    If it exploded in space it could come back together due to mass / gravity of the baloon pieces.

    Just look at how planets were formed from comets sticking together.

    Here is a link : ( scroll down until Circle of life and death )

    Quote :

    Circle of life and death
    There could be another reason, based on the genetic instinct which reaffirms the inevitable circle of life and death, of destruction and regeneration. In Indic philosophy, the cosmos goes through cycles in which it is eternally created and destroyed. This concept is reflected in the scientific theory of the oscillating universe, according to which the universe was created by the Big Bang and will continue to expand till gravitational forces pull it back together to a 'singularity which once again will explode in another Big Bang, ad infinitum.

    Subsequent studies have suggested that the oscillating universe theory could be flawed as there doesn't seem to be enough cosmic mass to coalesce once again into a singularity and that the universe is fated to expand till the end of space and time. However, this does not rule out the cyclical cosmic theory working on the micro, or molecular level.


    ^^ I know this contradicts what my OP says but everything is built at the molecular level, even the largest stars out there.

    Is the OP in a first-year Philosophy or first-year Physics course? That's the real question.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,184 ✭✭✭3ndahalfof6


    funny this notion popped into my head the other day, the big bang is the ending which is the new beginning, how many times has it happened, they don't know what caused the big bang so this can not be ruled out,

    it could bring some sense to the chaos of string theory, not so much universe upon universe, just big bang fallout on top of big bang new life.

    but i think the rate of the universe expanding is actually accelerating. (this is why the sky is dark at night. otherwise the 'night' sky would be all lit up.) so how can something be dying if the rate of expansion is speeding up, rather than slowing down?

    may have this wrong though. have a tendency to make stuff up sometimes.

    By apocalypse you mean the end of the universe or just earth? the latter would be very silly.
