The age of the universe much older

 The following is my Sunday thought, and it came to me in the last half hour. I have long been wondering about what is going on with our universe and our current interpretation of it. Of course, I have a theory about the large-scale structure of the universe: that it is a fractal, an inverted fractal. That theory has had no traction, but it allows me to think freely, perhaps more freely than others. And I have no skin in the game.  The following are my thoughts this morning on the age of the universe. I have recently been thinking that we are getting a distorted picture (more than we think) of the universe and are not taking into account special relativity at its outer reaches. I also think that our current age of the universe — 13.8 billion years old — is too young. I think this number is about as wrong as thinking the Earth is 3000 or 4000 years old. I think we need to be thinking 'deep cosmic time', like Hutton's geological deep time, and if this is true then the age of ...

Cosmic Dissonance Big Bang CMB wrong

Cosmic Dissonance: Big Bang CMB wrong? Here I go again. I just wrote this comment on astrophysicist Dr Becky's channel . I'll probably hear nothing, lol, but.. I actually got this idea in my dreams, listening to a cosmology audiobook, as I do. I was arguing in my dream with what I was hearing, and when I woke up, I said, "Wooo! That's a pretty cool idea." My comment. I call it cosmic dissonance. ( CMB is the cosmic microwave background , and the EMS, is the electromagnetic spectrum - check them out). "How is it that the CMB (which apparently is the decayed/cooled signature of the hot big bang) is right by stars that can be observed in the visible (of the EMS)? How can we have 'snapshots in time' observations of stars, but the CMB is not a snapshot; it has, by all accounts, cooled to the microwave, some 2 Kelvin, from an 'infinite' temperature at the same/similar location as the observed stars. I think your CMB is a red herring. It's in...

The Great Disassociation.

The topic of this post is my claim that the Internet is separating us. That it is like the electricity used to separate the atoms in the molecule H2O the negative and the positive, oxygen and the hydrogen, what is called in chemistry disassociation. Are we living in the age of disassociation? Where the electricity is the Internet. Just a thought.  I've been wanting to write this for some time. I have a few posts like this. I've been thinking about how, recently, more than ever in history, we have been separated and divided in our opinions. It's dividing people everywhere. Good luck trying to find somebody who is not affected. Now, what I found about the fractal is that it is a foundational geometry that points to different interpretations. It even is defined by differences. Now I think that there is only one truth to the mechanics of this fracture and the other side is an illusion. There is a duality of knowledge. I've also written on how I think the computer is affecti...

discussions with a physicist on age of universe

 I was about to write a diary entry but then thought, "Well, why not make it a blog entry instead?"  I was going over my thoughts on a discussion I had with my colleague in my staff room office. I teach in the IB program, and our office has a mathematician who actually works with string theory and similar — wow— language teachers, a psychology teacher, and an environmental studies teacher. But when I walked in yesterday morning, I got chatting with my physics colleague on my left.  He talked about what he was about to teach, special relativity. I said to him 'why don't you tell the students the crazy economist thinks the universe is telling us with respect to special relativity?' And he didn't remember our conversation from the past where I told them —the math teacher too — that I think the universe is a frozen image at its outer limits, the Big Bang, due to the phenomenon of special relativity. That special relativity doesn't allow us to see beyond. What ...

My Phone Call to Dr Clauser on Quantum

  My call to John Clauser. The following is not a call for empathy. I’m not doing it to win any points; I’m doing it just to share a story that I think is (personally) quite remarkable. It’s part of my story.  I called one of the greatest scientists of our time, Dr John Clauser , wanting to discuss the paper that I submitted and had published in the International Journal of Quantum Foundation on the topic he won his Nobel Prize in, quantum entanglement. It ended up that he hung up on me. I was shattered, but what did I expect? Well, I expected a little curiosity, a bit of time, maybe a "I’ll give it a look, and I’ll get back to you," but no, this was not to be. It was very harsh and not very constructive at all. On his side, he must get a lot of this, and I understand that. Even I do, and I am not supportive of people all the time. I had written a letter to Dr Clauser and sent it to him, covering two topics I had been involved in and wanted to share with him. The first w...

A paper in a day; Time Dilation at the Edge

 Yesterday, I put my thoughts to paper and produced a preprint in a day. No AI was used. My style of writing will tell you that.  I have learnt a lot in the process, and nothing has swayed me from my initial idea.  I think it is the greatest thing I have thought of indirectly in relation to my fractal and atmospheric work. It does, though, complement my other fractal work. Let's see what response I get.  Blair The Standard Model Big Bang Age of the Universe Confused for Special Relativity Absolute Time Dilation Barrier

Big Bang Age of Universe Really an Absolute Time Dilation, Time Barrier: An Illusion

Here, I introduce my theory, which explains the age of galaxies at the edge of the observable universe. Based on the mechanics of special relativity and time dilation, I think we are witnessing a time barrier.  The Standard Model Big Bang Age of the Universe Confused for Special Relativity Absolute Time Dilation Barrier You'd think that when you go on holiday, you should stop thinking for a while about 'the big questions' and take a break. Well, not me. In fact, I think even more, lol. I love it. The Problem One of the biggest problems I have—(it is not the only one, lol)—and many of you will know about it because I talk about it so much—is the age of the universe and why it is so young compared to the age of the Earth or the solar system. It is 13.8 billion in relation to our 4 to 5-ish billion years. In terms of geological Earth, where we talk about 'deep time', there is no time for deep time in the universe. Why is the universe so young?! Add to this the discover...
