When will it be replicated like the TAMU cold fusion from several years ago?

No one could replicate their claim of cold fusion!

PING?

More like BANG!!!!

KABOOM!!!!, even.

The more "we" study subatomic physics, the weirder it gets.

Does anyone have any idea where all the material that created the big bang come from?

That is very interesting.

So a collision takes place and new matter and anti-matter are created. A quick cooling process happens and much of the matter re-coalesces into the previous matter. But some of the new matter and the new anti-matter hang around for a little while before dissipating. But the anti-matter seems to dissipate faster.

Put onto a universal scale, that might explain a few things like entropy and the imbalance of matter versus anti-matter.

No wonder God said that we couldn't understand him, we learn new basic pieces of creation so slowly.

China. Everything comes from China. We don't make anything anymore.

A black hole in the anti-universe?

There’s little real difference between the Big Bang Theory, and Genesis 1:1.

Interesting indeed.

"We know that some new particles of matter were formed immediately after the Big Bang, but they were gone within a millionth of a second or so," explains Gagliardi.

Gagliardi "knows" this? If something is gone within a millionth of a second, billions of years ago, how do they "know"? All of this is speculation and conjecture.

A question I have had regarding the Big Bang, the entire supposition is premised on everything colliding at or near the speed of light. What was prior to the Big Bang? Are these scientists still going over the Universe expanding and contracting? What about the Universe increasing in speed as it separates, as has been currently obsevered?

Dark Matter cannot explain this, nor can Newton.

“At a temperature of about two trillion degrees, which is about 100,000 times hotter than the surface of the sun, we were able to produce a new form of matter.” No wonder the earth is getting warmer. What ever happened to “Matter cannot be created or destroyed.”? How did they find something capable of containing or creating so much heat?

Very true.

One of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen is creationists objecting to the Big Bang theory when it is essentially a rewording of the Bible. In fact, a good many physicists resisted accepting the theory because it implies the universe had a start and therefore possibly a Starter.

A Steady State universe fits a lot better with atheism.

A better question would be where did the laws of quantum mechanics come from.

"How did they find something capable of containing or creating so much heat?"

AlGore sez that beneath the crust the temperature of the Earth is millions of degrees hotter than the surface. Maybe if you go to the center of the Earth it is TRILLIONs of degrees hotter.

Al's so smart!

Did you read his paper and still not understand?
Or are you dismissing the research out of hand?

We've known about the weirdness for about 80 years. We just keep confirming it.
