[Vo]:Did the Big Bang happen? - Sabine Hossenfelder

2022-08-27 Thread H LV
A big bang, a big bounce, a black hole, a network, a collision of
membranes, a gas of strings...

She argues that all these attempts to explain the origin of the universe
are creation myths expressed in the language of mathematics. That doesn't
make them wrong, but it does make them _ascientific_. The virtue of the big
bang theory is that it is the simplest explanation we know, but it is also
probably wrong.

Looking back, sooner or later the universe always proves to be much bigger
than what we have been taught.
