Scientists Are Pretty Sure They Found a Portal to the Fifth Dimension
Popular Mechanic ^ | 23/12/24 | Caroline Delbert

Dark matter could be the result of fermions pushed into a warped fifth dimension. This theory builds on an idea first stated in 1999, but is unique in its findings. Dark matter makes up 75 percent of matter but has never been observed ... yet. Scientists say they can explain dark matter by positing a particle that links to a fifth dimension.

While the “warped extra dimension” (WED) is a trademark of a popular physics model first introduced in 1999, this research, published in The European Physical Journal C, is the first to cohesively use the theory to explain the long-lasting dark matter problem within particle physics.

Our knowledge of the physical universe relies on the idea of dark matter, which takes up the vast majority of matter in the universe. Dark matter is a kind of pinch hitter that helps scientists explain how gravity works, because a lot of features would dissolve or fall apart without an “x factor” of dark matter. Even so, dark matter doesn’t disrupt the particles we do see and “feel,” ...

But the freed slaves who later learned their letters wrote some immortal prose. Think Booker T. Washington, Frederick Douglas, Sara Heminges, or Solomon Northup. That body of literature more than makes up for Alex Heely’s plagiarism in Roots, or William Styron’s racist blather in The Confession of Nat Turner. Those that came through the crucible of slavery intact emerged stronger and triumphant. Generations later, some of black letters’ letters became toxic. But not all. There’s still plenty of valid black literature about the predicaments of blacks in modern life out there, such as the poetry of Langston Hughes, just for starters. Blacks’ contributions to thought and literature far outweighs the dreadful fact that slaves built the White House.

This can all be explained with string cheese theory.

Once you enter the realm of dark matter, there’s no going back, not that it matters.

The more settled the science, the more glaring is apt to be the error in settling that science.

The Creator of the universe might be gratified by our attempts to understand it- but likely chuckles at the conclusions we reach.

Discovering God had a profound effect on my view of life. It happened in nursing school while taking Anatomy & Physiology. The systems. Breathtaking.

The 5th Dimension did some other great Nyro covers, like Blowing Away and Stoned Soul Picnic.

I believe in Dark MAGA more than dark matter.

Even with regard to their theories on the origin of the universe, Nachmanides’ commentary on Genesis says that originally, the entire universe was a ball of potential, in which both darkness and light were compressed and indistinguishable. That could be interpreted as Big Bang theory, when G-d took that ball of chaos and started unpacking it, and just as the Light was more than mere conventional light, and the true Light was hidden away for the righteous after the end of days, so, too, the darkness might be something more than conventional darkness, maybe even “dark matter”. Could be. Maybe the blind scientists just groped around on the proverbial elephant until they gave it a hand job by accident. Ewww. Anyway. Dark matter. Yeah.

No, that is what pretend scientists do. All of the real scientists have been cancelled for telling the truth about verboten subjects. Other real scientists have been relegated to self censor themselves out of fear of losing their careers.
