Supervoids of empty space (blue) and superclusters of galaxies (red) were slightly cooler or warmer, respectively, than expected in maps of the cosmic microwave background because of dark energy (Illustration: Granett/Neyrinck/Szapudi/NASA/SDSS)
There’s never been a “big bang”, the universe is not expanding, and if dark matter or dark energy could be detected, it would not be dark. For that matter if the stuff were actually 95% of the universe as claimed, you’d be vacuuming it up off your carpets four or five times a day.
My theory is simple. Our whole universe is actually the inside of a black hole. The “big bang” is when the hole formed and the expansion is really due the hole getting more massive thereby pulling in more debris increasing its rate of growth.
Don’t put the check in the mail yet says the article,
“He also notes that Szapudi’s team observed a temperature effect that was stronger than expected from dark energy. “This could be a hint that there may be something else happening here that’s worth investigating,” he says.”
Ya mean we don’t know the whole story yet? ahhh..no.
