Hypothesis: Alternative view of the Universe

It has always struck HD that the theories on the origins of the universe are lacking conviction by many respects. The Big bang theory, String Theory, etc. all have their fans as well as their detractors. How, for instance, do they reconcile gravity with the theories behind quantum mechanics and ‘the small’ in the universe. HD hypothesises that the universe is made up in an entirely different way to the established theories mentioned above. HD cannot yet demonstrate the exact mechanics or the complete mathematics behind this theory, except that the theories of numbers that are found throughout our universe today and gravity are at the heart of the universe. Move over Einstein, it’s my turn now.

 

The ‘Infinite Black Body Universe’ or IBBU principle relates all bodies whether infinitesimally large or infinitesimally small are handled in exactly the same way and are all subject to the laws of gravity. That is, the many bodies of the universe are subject to exactly the same forces as are atoms and molecules. This provides for a naturally occurring universe that is held together around a central body in much the same way that electrons are held in place around atomic nuclei.

 

At the heart of the universe there lies a black body source. This source is infinitely large (although it may also be able to resonate to an infinitely small body) and it  behaves like any black body source, namely:

An ideal black body is a physical body that absorbs all electromagnetic radiation falling on it. Because of this perfect absorptivity at all wavelengths, a black body is also the best possible emitter of thermal radiation, which it radiates in a continuous spectrum that depends on its temperature. At Earth-ambient temperatures this emission is in the region of the electromagnetic spectrum and is not visible. The object therefore appears black, since it does not reflect or emit any visible light.

 

It would be natural to propose that the Black body is made up of the same constituents as are found in many bodies in the universe, namely the heaviest metals that exist in the universe except that it would have no atmosphere to speak of. This central body is both the origin and continuing presence of gravity and it would be reasonable to suppose the body is spinning on a continuous axis but is stationary in spacial terms.

 

The notion that there is an observable universe from anywhere within the boundaries of that universe is well known. Since IBBU maintains a spherical central black body source, the observable universe from Earth, for instance, is limited to the horizons of that body. Therefore, unlike other theories, IBBU caters for a universe that is mostly hidden from our view from Earth. It is possible that new sightings of galaxies, etc., although limited by distance are also explained by their appearance over those same horizons. It is therefore probable that the existing estimates of the size of the complete universe have been considerably underestimated. Furthermore, it is feasible that light travelling through the universe could be bent around the horizon just as was proposed by Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity. That being the case, ‘Einstein’s field equations’ (EFE) would also be satisfied. EFE solutions are prominent in the prediction of black holes and therefore may be useful in predicting the existence of the central black body source. It may also be that black holes are just ‘glimpses’ of, or echoes from the central body. They have some characteristics of the hypothesised central body, namely they let no light out and appear to be of infinite mass. How they may be echoes of the central mass is not yet understood. The possibility that black holes are connected to the central body by ‘worm holes’ is an interesting idea.

 

The central body that is spinning produces a shaped universe that is not necessarily spherical, the commonly held notion of universal shape. It is expected that the shape is a 3-dimensional spiral and conforms to the mathematics of the logarithmic spiral where:

r=ae

Given this, the size of the universe can be theoretically calculated given the knowledge of the size of the central body and the age of the universe. The nearest analogy on Earth is the

Since this universe is spiral in shape, the individual trailing layers that form appear to overlap each other from Earth’s viewpoint,  thus explaining why some far off galaxies appear to be from the beginnings of the universe. They may be from the beginning, but are very far out from the central body and are not at the centre where other models of the universe have their starting points. I.e. They have eventually spiralled into view from Earth. Consequentially, the current estimates of the age of the universe have been vastly miscalculated since the mathematics of previous notions of universal beginnings rely on a central starting point that is void and the mathematics of straight lines. The IBBU universe would be vastly older in relation to current thinking.
