Liz, you said it right at the start...but the point is only valid one time. What you reason above restates the same point in a different form. Based on the current worldview, the idea of dark energy gobbling dark matter, causing expansion to slow down.....is nonsensical. Can't be adjusted....can't be made into sense. Not without getting into significant levels of fussy details. Which cannot be done without large discoveries first that shed dramatic light on what dark matter and energy actually are. Not sensibly anyway (i.e. whatever fussy detailed explanation they create, there will be exponentially many other different and disagreeable explanations that are logically identical in terms of size and robustness of the necessary guesses, for each next level of detail necessary to go down, in order to fussy up the job. so it's a really huge issue. If it isn't correct, that'll show in the developments and no more will be said. But if this finding stubbornly sticks around, and then starts showing up in other independent ways. That then becomes the line too far.....too far to patch the cosmological model up with more dark stuff. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
