Deep Thoughts

Yeah well shut up!

[ermitonto]

I've had similar theories, like this one: What if the entire known universe is just the inside of a quark or an electron or something in a much larger universe, which itself is only a subatomic particle in an even larger universe? And inside each subatomic particle in our universe lies an entire microuniverse with its own microuniverses...

3 days ago me and my friend thought up of the exact same theory. i was watching a show on tv that had to do with the universe and they were explaining the great distances between the nucleus of an atom and the electrons that move around it. then i started to think that matter as we know it, its just the building blocks for a larger universe(we are their atoms) if you were to look at our universe from far enough away, it would just look like a clump of light. well u can put that same theory to use when talking about ur computer screen, looks like a clump of light to me. dosent mean our universe is a computer screen in some other universe tho.
anywho, i was also thinking of the big bang thoery. apparently they think that a ball of matter, smaller than a golf ball, with all the matter in this universe, just blew up one day. well, in a larger universe, that little ball might have been an atom(or quark, ill get to that) of the larger universe. for all we know those "people" in the larger universe might have been splitting "atoms", hence, "the big bang". did u knno electrons arnt the smallest thing in the universe? if u take electrons, protons or nutrons and smash them togther at almost the speed of light, the E,P, or N will split up into 3 parts(for a fraction of a millisecond). these 3 parts are each called "quarks". in a smaller universe, the quark could be the recipe for a universe (ball of matter that explodes, "big bang") u might say that if we blew up a quark that we'd, in turn, destroy ourselves? not entirly tru cause the size of this new created universe would be much smaller than a golf ball in our universe.

this whole larger/smaller universe thing can go on forever both ways and eventually maybe both ends meet up somewhere but who knows...im only guessing and im prolly wrong, but its nice to think about :P


EDIT:ermitonto...i swear to "god" that i didnt read ur post b4 i posted mine...lol...kinda creepy how similar they were

[kronick]

oops...i didnt mean "exact same theory"

Yeah, that theory doesn't explain how our solarsystem isn't following the electron shell

and this is why i dont think it was the same, i agree with A Foo...that the theory dosent explain "how our solarsystem isn't following the electron shell" but its foolish to assume that the laws of our universe are them same as another universe. so it all comes back to one thing...we cant prove anything...we only have educated guesses that might be correct.

Cept fer me, I know everything.

lmao...nuff said

http://mathforum.org/alejandre/applet.mandlebrot.html Maybe an atom is just a fractal of a universe, or is analogous to the universe. Check out string theory, it is nuts!!!!

[kronick]

the string theory is way too complex...and i doubt its right...inturesting tho.

ever seen Powers of Ten?

ya man...that same tv show i was talking about earlier...they showed "powers of ten" using rings that were always 1 power of ten bigger than the last(i kno it dosent make sense, but click the link above and read the page). so it went: 1 power of ten, 2 powers of ten, 3 powers of ten, etc... all the way to 42 powers of ten. the they went smaller to -1 power of ten, -2 power of ten...etc. it was really cool! i loved it and im keeping this tape. i loved it so much, i almost cryed...*cough*
