The Optimistic Hypothesis on the Destinies of the Universe.
Another day I was watching a movie, a long serial. It was about a Big Bang and eventual end of the Universe or rather the end of this whole world, because it will turn into one black hall and get pressed so much, that it will become singular, tiny, one particle and then explode.
The producers took care to be very convincing in making viewers believe in this depressing hypothesis, although initially, they gave a resemblance of hope, sending people on a journey from Galaxy to Galaxy, but then threw them in a middle of a black hall, like doomed rabbits before Sabbath day.
All right, why worry, or be depressed if by that time human race might not even exist. Why worry, if after decades of millenniums people might evolve into the unknown today species resembling a glowing floating balloons. Yet, I do worry. This is, I guess, my job as a human of present time.
I worry to the point that I do not believe in "the Universe will end" theory, and I tediously gather together the counter arguments. First of all, all those scientific studies that suggest that Universe is expending and cooling off, are based on a photo imaging of light, light that is crossing distances millions of light years long. What is a light year? That is distance the ray of light reaches per one year. Consider that per second light moves about 300.000 miles. How many seconds are in a year? You figure out the distance. It is enormous, there is not even word for it. Don't forget to multiply it by millions. This is how far the technology lets astronomers see. What is beyond that point, no one knows (this is where we are all equal, in not knowing).
I won't exaggerate saying that an average American today knows that light in the Universe gets banged by magnetic fields of the planets, stars, etc. Take millions of those enormous distances the light passes from the farthest reachable cosmic objects in order to reach telescopes on Earth, and try, just try to imagine how many planets and stars it meets on its way, getting distorted, banged, lost, curled, whirled, strengthened again, spread apart, and weaved together. Holly! There is no technology to even approach to figure out how to undo that hopeless blob of yarn.
My intuitive take on it is that the Universe is resembling one blob of yarn of googles of magnetic fields, light, sound waves, matter, quantum, dimensions. This blob is impossible to undo, and on top of it it's also growing in
