Ruberband Universe?

Question

This is my thoery of everthing. If the big bang happened then the universe has a fixed amount of energy and it will soon contract,much like a rubber band after you pull it it will soon contract. But I though to myself and said stuff doesnt just explode for no reason without al-quada setting of the bomb first. So heres my thoery. There have been plenty universes before this one. Think about it if the past universe contracted and all of the mass of that one colladed that would cause a big bang,and restart the process,agian and again and again. This might be the first time or the 57657657902567946 time. Maybe we've been he before and this is just another re-do. This explains peoples de ja vu or however you spell it since some things would be bound to repeat. This also explains the static that people hear when listening the the universe since all the mass of a universe crashing togeter would probally be just that massive

I call it the Ruberband universe, You like it?

Answer 1

Sounds like ive heard this one before.

But how does this explain the increasing speed of the exspansion?

Personally I think the big rip,is a better theory.

Answer 2

The first thing you need to do is learn what a theory is.

Answer 3

Your theory is not unique, it parallels the theory of the multidimensional existence in which the universe we know and see is actually akin to a floating island in a higher dimension. It is also not alone in this higher dimension as there are many other universes all travelling about. As a universe gains space in this higher plain it has room to expand, as it comes in to contact with another universe the two apply pressure on one another until they are compressed back to a point, it is in this state that the big bang event can occur, the force of the explosion then pushes the two universe apart sending them back away into the ether.

But this is just one of many theories, its not actually any better than yours.

Answer 4

Until 1998, there were three possible ways the Universe might work.  One is yours - gravity overcomes the expansion and eventually pulls everything back together in a big crunch.  The third is that gravity doesn't overcome the expansion, and the Universe expands forever.  The second is like the third, but gravity and the expansion are in exact balance.  The Universe expands forever, but it slows to almost a stop.  It never does contract back into a big crunch.  This is called a "flat Universe".

But which is it?  Through the careful study of type 1a supernova at cosmological distances, it was discovered that the Universe started out very close to flat - maybe exactly flat.  However, there seems to be something that pushes stuff apart - and it's getting stronger.  This stuff - which we call Dark Energy - mainly because we have so little clue what it is - seems to give a push proportional to the amount of space there is.  As the Universe expands, there's more space, and Dark Energy gets stronger.  This isn't one of the 3 models.  It's a forth, very unexpected result.  It's a strange Universe we live in.  You can't make this kind of stuff up.

I should point out that i currently don't believe in the Big Rip.  I don't think we know enough about Dark Energy to say what will happen.  I still expect a heat death of the Universe. A good scientist reserves the right to change their mind when presented with better evidence.

Answer 5

But then, where would that 'rubber' come from?

How do you know that time exists outside our universe? In the questions, 'what was before the big bang?' and 'what will be after the end?', the words 'before' and 'after' are used informally to refer to events outside the timeframe of our universe, but although from here and now time feels unbounded, it doesn't necessarily have to be so. Time, as the fourth macroscopic dimension, could be curled up on itself within spacetime. It is spacetime as a whole (or better, the component of spacetime we live in) that constitutes the universe as a self-sufficient entity.

The physical laws that we experience, including the rules concerning the passing of time, cannot be naively extended beyond our universe (or even to all of it).

Answer 6

Nice theory - but not yours, I'm afraid. Google "the big crunch".
