I'm leaning toward the whole black hole/white hole scenario that michio kaku talks about. But who knows, I highly doubt that its just always been here. The matter and elements would have to be a by-product of some event in my mind.

did u watch that vid about the 11th dimension?
I loved the top comment for the 2nd video "Is anyone else in love with Michio in the least gayest way possible?"Quote:

Thus the cycle starts again. What I find difficult to comprehend is where the big bang singularity ACTUALLY IS, since there was no time or space outside of it in which to exist. AND the idea that the universe isn't actually expanding, but rather new space is being created between the galaxies giving the impression of them moving away from each other. Crazy.
yep yep exactly what i was thinking
i agree though idk where it is
its highly unlikely that it was our universe obviously
so its in the 11th dimension :)
we are thousands and thousands of years behind though
Another thing I find crazy is the idea of gravity being a distortion in spacetime rather than a force, and that as I sit here typing this stuff, I am bending the room in towards me (while also being stretched outwards by the room!).
Physics is really interesting. Did you know that one teaspoon of a matter from a neutron star would weigh about 5 billion tonnes?
I could talk about this all day. I'd better stop...
I was thinking the same thing but it's really a crazy thing to think of... like what was BEFORE the universe i mean it couldnt just randomly be here... This question also leads me to multiple questions, like if there really is a god if so how the fuck did he create himself lol or rather how was he created. But this type of stuff is truly facinating i wish joe rogan would talk about it in a video, he always has something interesting to say.Quote:

We can just claim that it was made by magic ie...omnipotent superbeing. So there's your answer. Magic =D. Also, the world and universe are 5,800-6,000 years old meaning dinosaurs and man totally existed at the same time right? And that carbon dating........no matter how accurate, is wrong about the age of the world because it doesn't fit the concept of what my magical textbook tells me. Silly science, everything is based on magic and superstition damn you! Quit being all logical and evidence based and what not!
My money is on that our galaxy is just a fleck, in a fleck, in a fleck, in a marble.

If no one sees me after 30 days, it's safe to assume that the Illuminati has captured and killed me for knowing the truth!
That's one of my favorite aspects of physics too. What I love about it most is that the curvature of spacetime is really intuitive; we have the intuition trained out of us in school until we get to college, take more advanced physics, and find out we knew this all along. I always loved this example:Quote:

Throw a line drive that takes 6 seconds to get there. You can't. Why not? Because the ball MUST follow the curvature of the space the mass of the Earth creates. It MUST travel along that curve in spacetime -- the time it takes and the space it covers are inseparable.
The best part is that you already knew that. Every kid playing little league knows that without thinking about it. You don't have to calculate the degree of curvature before throwing the ball, you just do it. You don't need to know the equations for general relativity to play baseball. Your brain knows how things travel in curved space because it's always been there throughout your whole existence. You didn't have to go to school to learn it, you just had to go to school to learn the math to describe what your brain already knew. A five-year-old intuitively understands the same physics that results in black holes. I love shit like that. :)
But than where would this "marble" come from?Quote:
