The Big Bang is a mirror, hiding another universe behind it

Cosmic inflation is a figment of scientists' imagination

The conventional wisdom among cosmologists is that the universe experienced a period of “inflation,” a brief burst of accelerated expansion, a fraction of a second after the Big Bang. But theoretical physicist Latham Boyle argues that inflation is a figment of cosmologists’ imagination, and that a better theory of the early universe suggests the Big Bang is a cosmic mirror hiding another universe just beyond the beginning of time.

 

What was the very early universe like, just a short time after the Big Bang? What happened at the Big Bang itself? What was the Big Bang?

Since the universe is expanding, it was denser and hotter in the past. Astronomers can see this directly because any observation of distant galaxies captures them as they were when their light was emitted toward us. For example, when we look at a galaxy one billion light years away, we are seeing how it looked a billion years ago. So looking further out means looking further back in time, when the universe was hotter and denser. 

A particularly vivid illustration of this is the cosmic microwave background radiation. Your eyes detect light (electromagnetic waves in the optical frequency range) so the night sky looks dark ­– electromagnetic waves in the microwave frequency range do not register with human vision. But if you could see radiation in the microwave frequency range, the night sky would look bright in all directions. Where does this radiation come from?

I'm Brad DuKe, I won $220 million dollars with the help of Dr Lucas. I'm a former exercise instructor from Star, Idaho. I contacted Dr Lucas for lottery numbers when i saw a lot of good testimonials about him online on how he has been helping people win the lottery with his spell, i told him what i want and he did a readings and told me it is my destiny to win the lottery then i followed his instructions and do all he asked me to do, he started working on my winning spell and gave me the numbers to play the next day which i did with the instructions given to me by him and to my greatest surprise i won the same amount he told me i was going to win, do you need any spell to win the lottery? Contact Dr Lucas for help. Email drlucasspelltemple@gmail. com or WhatsApp +234 904 794 3567 spread the good news after winning with his numbers. THANK YOU

Puzzled by this contradiction:
paragraph 3 "When the universe was very young, it was too hot for atoms to form, and instead the universe was a plasma full of separate electrons and protons. As it expanded, it finally became cool enough for these electrons and protons to bind together into neutral hydrogen atoms. This was a few hundred thousand years after the Big Bang"
paragraph 5 "Then, between one second and a few minutes after the Big Bang, as the universe expanded and cooled, these protons and neutrons bound together to form the lightest elements in the periodic table (the various isotopes of Hydrogen, Helium and Lithium),"

Hydrogen first formed after a few hundred thousand years, and it first formed after a minute or two. Which is it?

Also, does anybody monitor these comments? Most of the "conversation" is snakeoil salesmen selling cures for Herpes and infallible ways to win the lottery. Any chance some moderator might come by one day and delete them?

I have been suffering from Herpes for the past 1 years and 8 months, and ever since then I have been taking series of treatment but there was no improvement until I came across testimonies of Dr. Silver on how he has been curing different people from different diseases all over the world, then I contacted him as well. After our conversation he sent me the medicine which I took according to his instructions. When I was done taking the herbal medicine I went for a medical checkup and to my greatest surprise I was cured from Herpes. My heart is so filled with joy. If you are suffering from Herpes or any other disease you can contact Dr. Silver today on this Email address: drsilverhealingtemple@gmail. com

How about a simpler explanation for the matter/antimatter imbalance:

A positron is in theory the same as an electron moving backward in time. So when a electron/positron pair are created, the positron moves backward in time and the electron moves forward in time. Since they will never be in the same time the two will never meet/annihilate.

In our universe the electrons vastly outnumber positrons so the electron (moving forward in time) is unlikely to meet a positron, while the positron likely will meet an electron (from the past) and annihilate. Since it moves backward in time it can only meet electrons created earlier in time.

But near the beginning of the universe when electron/positron pairs arose there were few if any older electrons for the positron to meet. So when it had passed those few it was safe from annihilation. Likewise for the electrons -- there were no more positrons from the future to meet.

So the positrons continued into the past while the electrons continued into the future. I assume that this is likewise true for other kinds of particle/antiparticle pairs. Thus two mirror universes separate, one moving forward in time (matter) and the other moving backward in time (antimatter).

This could explain the observed matter/antimatter imbalance. There is no imbalance, they are simply at different times.

My name is Harry. I'm very happy to share my testimonies. The best thing that has ever happened in my life is how I won the lottery. I am a man who believes that one day I will win the lottery. Finally my dreams came through when I emailed Dr Jatto. I spend so much money on tickets just to make sure I win. But I never knew there was always something behind every lucky winner until the day I met Dr Jatto online, which I saw many people have talked about that he's very great when it comes to casting lottery spells, so I decided to give him a try. I contacted this great Dr Jatto and he did a spell and gave me the winning lottery numbers. But believe me when the draws came out I was among the lucky winners. I won 60 million dollars, with this great man you can win millions of dollars through the lottery. I am very happy to meet this great man.
