@Stan2415loveu Thanks. You just need to get your head around the Void. The rest follows effortlessly and instantly

@voidtovoid Does your brain in trying to get your head around it..must have taken so so so many millions of years..amazing though.

@NextScience I've said time is not a straight line 22 years ago. Everything curves in the end, even the time line. When it does, it ultimately catches up with your from behind. Same with the number line. Same with space. All is circular. Infinity is the journey from 0 to 0 over and over again
English

⏳ SCIENTISTS SAY TIME MAY NOT FLOW FORWARD
New quantum research suggests time might not move in a straight line at all. Instead, it could fold back on itself, raising a shocking possibility — what we do today may somehow influence the past.
In the strange world of quantum physics, particles sometimes behave as if effects happen before causes. The deeper scientists investigate, the more reality begins to look like something far beyond human understanding.
What if the past is not truly fixed?

@scitechgirl The Universe is much stranger than our limited understanding of it, but it's actually quit simple. To understand the Universe (including quantum behaviors) one needs to understand the canvas on which the Universe forms....or rather "pulses". More on voidtovoid.com

⚠️ Scientists Found Something Strange About Reality…
In the quantum world, tiny particles can behave like waves or solid matter depending on how they are measured. Before observation, they may exist in multiple possible states at once — but the moment scientists measure them, one outcome suddenly appears.
This mysterious “observer effect” has shocked physicists for decades and raised deep questions about the nature of reality itself.
The universe may be far stranger than it looks.

@scitechgirl Time only exists for us because we ride one of the infinite ripples making up an infinite ripple effect we call The Universe. The ripple effect is taking place on a canvas of Void that knows no time, no space and no matter. This reality produces all kinds of "strange" behaviours.
English

⏳ What if time is only an illusion?
Some physicists believe the past, present, and future may not truly “flow” the way we think. Quantum entanglement shows particles can stay mysteriously connected across vast distances, and these hidden links might create our experience of time itself.
If this idea is true, reality could be far stranger than we ever imagined… and every moment may already be connected in ways we cannot see.

Why the tooth fairy is important for theoretical physics
Theoretical physicists often explore wild, unusual ideas when confronting the mysteries of nature.
You can even invoke the Tooth Fairy if you like, but only once.

@LensScientific Everything emerges from the same basic fact: the state of void is unsustainable. Its only consequence is the universe. If you read the theory, which takes few mns, the question you pose re entanglement is resolved voidtovoid.com

Quantum entanglement sounds impossible, yet experiments keep confirming it. Two particles can become so deeply linked that measuring one instantly affects the other, even across light-years. Some physicists now wonder if space and time themselves emerge from these hidden quantum connections.

🚨 The Invisible Matter That Might Be Holding the Entire Universe Together
Imagine looking at the night sky and realizing that almost everything you can see—every star, planet, and galaxy—makes up only a tiny fraction of the universe. Scientists believe that the vast majority of matter out there is completely invisible. This mysterious substance is called Dark Matter, and it may be silently shaping the cosmos around us.
The story began in 1933 when astronomer Fritz Zwicky studied a distant group of galaxies known as the Coma Cluster. Something strange was happening there. The galaxies were moving so fast that, according to the laws of gravity, they should have flown apart long ago. But they didn’t. It was as if an invisible force was holding everything together. Zwicky concluded that there must be a huge amount of hidden matter that no telescope could see.
Decades later, astronomer Vera Rubin discovered another cosmic mystery. When she studied how stars move inside galaxies, she found that stars far from the center were moving much faster than they should be. According to the known laws of gravity, those stars should have drifted away into space. Yet they remained in orbit, as if surrounded by a massive invisible halo.
Today, scientists believe galaxies are wrapped in enormous clouds of dark matter that we cannot see, touch, or detect directly. It does not shine, reflect light, or interact with normal matter in any obvious way. Yet its gravity is powerful enough to shape the universe.
Even more mysterious, measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background, the faint echo of the Big Bang, suggest that about 85% of all matter in the universe may be dark matter. That means the atoms that make up stars, planets, oceans, and even our own bodies are only a small piece of the cosmic puzzle.
So what exactly is dark matter? Scientists have ideas—perhaps strange particles like WIMPs or mysterious particles called Axions. Experiments deep underground and powerful machines like the Large Hadron Collider are searching for clues. But so far, the universe has kept its secret.
Which raises a chilling possibility: the universe might be mostly made of something we still don’t understand.
Right now, as you read this, enormous halos of dark matter could be surrounding our own galaxy, silently controlling the motion of stars and galaxies across billions of light-years.
We cannot see it.
We cannot touch it.
But without it… the universe we know might not exist at all. 🌌

@Rainmaker1973 I’ve said for more than 20 years that The Big Bang is just a tiny bang. The universe, even the observable one, is far older and larger than the one created by the so-called big bang. More at voidtovoid.com

The James Webb Space Telescope has done it again: revealing a breathtaking structure now dubbed the “Cosmic Vine”: a string of 20 galaxies stretching across a staggering 13 million light-years!
What makes this discovery so shocking? This colossal formation dates back nearly 11 billion years, forming just 3 billion years after the Big Bang, a time when galaxies were thought to still be forming in isolated clumps. Instead, JWST captured a massive, organized structure linking galaxies together much earlier than expected.

Many people think quantum mechanics “breaks” Einstein’s theory of relativity because of quantum entanglement. After all, if two particles instantly affect each other across enormous distances, doesn’t that mean something is traveling faster than light?
Surprisingly, the answer is no.
The real conflict between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics is far deeper than the speed of light. It is a clash between two completely different ways of describing reality itself.
Imagine two perfectly synchronized dice created in a strange quantum experiment. One die is taken to Earth, while the other is carried to a distant space station orbiting another star. The moment one astronaut rolls their die and gets a number, the other die instantly reveals a correlated result.
At first glance, it feels as though information traveled across the cosmos instantly.
But there is a catch.
Neither astronaut can control the outcome of the roll. Each result appears completely random until they later compare their measurements through ordinary communication limited by the speed of light. No usable message was sent faster than light. What traveled instantly was not information in the classical sense, but correlation.
This strange phenomenon is known as Quantum Entanglement, one of the most mysterious features of quantum physics.
Einstein deeply disliked this idea. He believed nature should behave locally, meaning objects should only be influenced by their immediate surroundings. The thought that two particles could remain mysteriously connected across light-years seemed absurd to him. He famously mocked it as “spooky action at a distance.”
Yet experiment after experiment has confirmed that entanglement is real.
Still, relativity survives because no physical signal or controllable information outruns light.
The true tension between the two theories lies elsewhere.
Albert Einstein built relativity on the idea that spacetime is smooth and continuous, like a perfectly curved cosmic fabric. Gravity is not really a force in this picture; planets move because massive objects warp spacetime itself.
Quantum mechanics, however, describes a universe that is fundamentally uncertain. Particles do not possess exact positions or velocities until measurements occur. Reality at microscopic scales behaves more like a cloud of probabilities than a collection of solid objects following predictable paths.
In relativity, the universe resembles a carefully engineered clock.
In quantum mechanics, it resembles a shifting symphony of possibilities.
Both theories are astonishingly successful. Relativity accurately predicts black holes, gravitational waves, and the expansion of the universe. Quantum mechanics powers modern electronics, lasers, semiconductors, and much of contemporary technology.
But under extreme conditions, such as inside black holes or during the first moments after the Big Bang, the two theories mathematically collide.
Relativity treats spacetime as smooth.
Quantum theory suggests that at incredibly tiny scales, nature fluctuates violently with uncertainty.
The smooth stage of spacetime itself may actually become grainy, turbulent, or quantized.
Physicists still do not know how to fully combine these two visions into one complete framework. This is why scientists search for a theory of Quantum Gravity through ideas such as String Theory and Loop Quantum Gravity.
Perhaps the greatest irony in physics is that Einstein helped create quantum theory, yet spent much of his life resisting its implications.
Today, modern physics rests on two monumental achievements: Einstein’s curved spacetime and the strange probabilistic world of quantum mechanics.
Both are incredibly accurate.
And yet, at the deepest level, they still refuse to fit together completely.

@PhysInHistory The void is far bigger than all the matter in it ..
English

Not really how it works and that’s where the confusion usually starts.
The universe isn’t expanding into anything like a balloon moving through empty space. Instead, space itself is stretching. So there’s no “outside” edge it’s growing into, because space and time are what are expanding.
A simpler way to picture it:
imagine dots on the surface of a balloon. As the balloon inflates, the dots move farther apart but the surface doesn’t need an “outside direction” for that to happen. The surface just grows.
So the honest answer is:
it’s not expanding into anything… it’s just expanding.
English

@PhysInHistory the edge of the universe is more like an event horizon than an edge, it would take all the energy in the universe collectively to pass that horizon. and past the horizon everything would basicslly evaporate because of the lack of higgs field and gravitons.

🌀 What If Everything We Know About the Universe Is Wrong?
Forget invisible forces — what if gravity alone explains everything we see in the cosmos?
A bold new study from the University of Ottawa is shaking the foundations of modern physics, suggesting that the mysterious forces we’ve long believed make up most of the universe — dark matter and dark energy — might not exist at all.
Instead, researchers propose that what we’re witnessing could simply be gravity itself evolving as the universe ages. Over time, the fundamental forces of nature might be slowly weakening, creating the illusion of hidden matter and unseen energy.
This radical idea could rewrite decades of cosmology. The team’s model introduces a mysterious parameter called α (alpha) — a kind of “shape-shifting” factor within the laws of gravity. On cosmic scales, α behaves like a constant, but within galaxies, it subtly changes depending on how matter is spread out. These tiny shifts could mimic the extra pull we’ve always blamed on dark matter — explaining why stars at the edges of galaxies move faster than expected.
Even more intriguingly, α might also account for the accelerating expansion of the universe — what we now call dark energy — without needing to invent any new forces or particles.
If true, this means the universe isn’t filled with unseen stuff after all… just the familiar force of gravity, quietly evolving over billions of years, shaping reality in ways we’re only beginning to grasp.
Could it be that the universe’s greatest mystery was never hidden — just misunderstood? 🌌

🚨 In the strange and fascinating world of quantum physics, there exists a phenomenon so mysterious that even Einstein called it “spooky action at a distance.” It’s known as quantum entanglement, and it links particles together in a way that defies space, time, and all known laws of communication.
When two particles become entangled, they share a quantum state—meaning what happens to one instantly affects the other, no matter how far apart they are. You could separate them by galaxies, and still, a change in one would mirror in the other immediately. No signal travels between them, and no measurable delay occurs. It’s as if the universe itself bends to keep them connected.
Scientists have confirmed this effect through countless experiments, proving that reality operates on levels far beyond what our senses can grasp. Quantum entanglement isn’t just a theoretical wonder; it’s now being used to shape future technologies—from unbreakable quantum encryption to faster-than-light communication research and revolutionary computing systems.
What’s truly astonishing is the implication: everything in the universe might once have been entangled during the Big Bang, suggesting that distant corners of space could still be subtly linked through hidden quantum threads.
Entanglement challenges our understanding of distance, time, and individuality. It reminds us that separation might only be an illusion—and that the universe, at its deepest level, moves as one.
