It's been a while since I posted anything on these boards, just thought I'd give it another go.
Point 1 (Expansion)
All mass and energy potentially was contained in one singularity, and then exploded to create the universe. "Big Bang!"
- Did this singularity contain infinite mass and energy?
- Did this singularity explode mass and energy into the universe, or did it leak mass and energy into the universe?
- If this singularity contained infinite mass and energy what is to stop it from expanding infinitely? What are the conditions for the universe collapsing?
- If this singularity contained limited mass and energy what is left to cause a collapse? In neither this point or the last could the mass and energy dissipation negate space at that singularity to create a fissure to collapse the universe back onto.
Point 3 (Time Travel/FTL Travel)
- What makes light speed the ultimatum for travel speed? Light is made up of photons which have no mass, but have energy and momentum. Since light is massless, anything with mass cannot travel FTL, according to the E = mc^2 conversions. But, what if enough energy was outputted against a mass to allow for that barrier to be broken?
What if we had two machines. The machine in the front would be connected to the one behind, and it's engine being strong enough to push both the machines at max speed (without breaking the barrier), then the back machine releases from the front. Where would that extra energy go, if not into speed?
(I'll be back later to write more)
