Something Mysterious Appears to Be Suppressing the Universe’s Growth, Scientists Say::The unexplained cause of the slowed growth of the cosmic web that connects galaxies could hint at new physics.
Program is running out of memory.
Does the universe—err, HAVE memory via conservation of mass or sumfing?
42?
could hint at new physics.
Nice a new update it’s dropping.
“Patch notes: fixed weird bug slowing down the expansion of the universe; heat death now correctly occurs in 2025”
Well, shit
I hate this kind of titles that try hard to make science sound esoteric. Science is exciting enough by itself!
Because the entire universe is inside a black hole and what we percieve as expansion is acceleration to a singularity?

The current unbiased status of the universe is in a black hole theory is that it is possible, The math could work*, but we don’t have any good reasons to actually believe it is actually the case.
I just found this fascinating:
“In other words, if a black hole was as large as the universe we can see, it would have the same density as the universe.”
The idea that we could be inside a black hole and just not know it is mind boggling.
“Lineweaver notes there is an event horizon around the observable universe, just as there is around a black hole, and this is just one of the parallels between them.”
There are a bunch of parallels, but a number of those parallels are still theoretical. If this exists then it would look like that If this works like that then it would also seem like this.
The strongest statement we can make about it is there’s currently no concrete evidence that it’s not what’s happening.
It’s a great thought experiment, but it’s a pretty bold jump to go from we don’t see any reason this can’t be true to announcing that It’s the defacto case.
“The plot suggests that if there were nothing – a complete vacuum – beyond the observable universe, our Universe would be a large, low density black hole. This is a little scary, but we have good reason to believe that’s not the case,” Patel added."
Your source refutes your claim.
It’s on a bit of a diet, seems to be working, good for the universe
What does… God… need… with a starship?
Jim, what are you doing
Jim, what are you doing

the spiders making the cosmic web are on strike duh

God has raised the interest rate
I’m sorry, this totally was not my intention.
Shit, I knew I forgot about doing something.
It is the weekend for whoever is running the universe experiment so they went home. Just wait a couple more gazillion years and they will be back adding more stuff to the mix.
