      @euanmacleod3738 4 роки тому +11

      It's really hard to conceptualize, but the expansion we observe - different points all getting more distant to one another - is more the stretching of space everywhere. We aren't expanding into anything, just all the fabric of space that makes up the universe is stretching to essentially create more space, and this process drives everything apart as the distance between them literally grows. Sort of like how fixed points would perceive their world to be expanding if they were within a balloon being inflated - except in this case, the balloon doesn't need any external space to allow its growth because the balloon is all there is.
      To put it another way, it's not so much that the universe is expanding so much as it is that everything within the universe is becoming more distant to one another as dark energy dominates the fabric of space itself.

All of which contradict the text book teaching that it is meant to be hottest at the core due to gravity and should get less hot away from this presumed scource - Also the probe is unexpectedly flying through huge alternating electromagnetic fields compatible with Birkeland currents (currents that power the Sun) - The graphic illustrations of galaxy maps even look like electic currents moving through a medium and the recent dramatic 'black hole' graphic looks just like a plasmoid - These are only illustrations not the real thing but so fit how you would illustrate a Cosmos powered by electric current - The recent probes to Jupiter and Saturn report magnetic fields far greater than expected due to anything the planet alone could generate which is exactly as predicted by Wal Thornhill a proponent of Birklands pioneering work advocating that the energy for this is current from the Sun - (Interestingly the same probes gravity sensors could not find the heavy cores they expected and one wonderfully massaged explanation for Jupiter was that the heavy core had been cannoned from the centre by collision with a lightweight planet that now occupied the core.)
