Re: Bang/Crunch Revisited

Since this isn't science in the observable/quantifiable/knowable sense, I'll take a shot at it, although any discussion like this suggests a similarity to the question, "If parallel lines meet in infinity, where do they go after that?"

An oscillating universe gives those lines somewhere to go and is therefore appealing to me. Of course I'm more of an arts type than a science type, so I like symmetry.

I would love to see any math that could support or refute the oscillating universe theory. Once I'd seen the math, I'd need to have it explained to me (several times), but I would try to be as patient as the explainer would have to be.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
