Topic #1: Cosmology part 1

Grandpa will try not to repeat previous blogs written in the cosmology category of this blog, of which there are 61 posted blogs. I want to pick up where we left off  about six months ago. I do not want to repeat the steps that got us to where we are on our Nested Universes concept. You can go back and read that.

But first, I do want to review my logic leading up to our Nested Universes concept and it’s present status before addressing the serious unprovable issues of our concept … and some interesting observable aspects that may add credence to the concept.

 My introduction to the universe started at your age Luke … at about age 12. My mother said to me; “The universe has no end and no beginning. You can’t put a box around the universe and say that’s it! There is always something outside that box you have mentally imagined  in you head.”

Luke, when I thought about an the endlessness of space and time, I felt that my brain was spinning around in my head. I thought to myself; “That has to be! There can be no other conclusion”. As years have gone  I have concluded that space and time are endless and that is the ultimate undeniable scientific fact … that falls into the category of being among the things that cannot be proved. That is quite a dichotomy kids, don’t you think? We will get into that dichotomy in Topic # 5.

I said that I would get into some interesting subset blogs under each of the 5 main topics. In the next blog, under cosmology,  I will go back to the “An idea a day” blog, and the “Family Librarian” blog.
