Urr, nope, but thinking about this can help find the truth. From this teaching: “You could say that the history of the book of Genesis is kind of like the opposite of our belief in a 14 billion years ago Big Bang, considered to be out of date and foolish, but perhaps with more wisdom than we thought. Perhaps even Genesis is set for its own type of revolutionary rereading.”
Reverse the Big Bang, Find Genesis Within — Spiritual Sunshine: A Swedenborgian Community Online
Up until the James Webb telescope came online recently, most of us science-oriented people were pretty sure that the universe started about 14 billion years ago with the “Big Bang.” Now that we can see further out and further back into the universe, not only is our idea of the age of the univers...

lol pls read: “This is kind of a mess. The question originally didn’t specify that the Big Bang was excluded. John Rennie and I both answered on the assumption that the Big Bang was the only logical place to look for a boundary. Our answers contradict one another. The new version of the question excludes the Big Bang. However, the OP has never explained why anyone would expect a boundary anywhere else”.
Excluding big bang itself, does spacetime have a boundary?
My understanding of big bang cosmology and General Relativity is that both matter and spacetime emerged together (I’m not considering time zero where there was a singularity). Does this mean that
The Nothingness, or Chaos, Void and Abyss is a world in Greek Mythology, which first appears around 700 BCE and ends in the 9th Century. lt’s based on the god of the same name. In Strange Case, they thought it was Chaos, but was later revealed to be Nyx in disguise, meaning Chaos was only mentione... Read more
So there is only one spacetime boundary despite there being two types of singularity that could take us to perhaps many other universes – all of which live outside of THE one nothing.
Cosmological natural selection also called the fecund universes, is a hypothesis proposed by Lee Smolin intended as a scientific alternative to the anthropic principle. It addresses the problem of complexity in our universe, which is largely unexplained. The hypothesis suggests that a process analog... Read more

The Logic and Beauty of Cosmological Natural Selection
I have a prediction. There is a scientific hypothesis, formulated over 20 years ago, that we will one day look back on, when the evidence is in, and say “Of course that was right!

Metasurfaces allow for vast possibilities of light control. Here, the authors demonstrate on-demand engineering and realization of a broad family of two-dimensional phase singularity sheets and transverse polarization singularity sheets, opening up new aspects of light-matter interaction.
A gravitational singularity or space-time singularity is a location where the quantities that are used to measure the gravitational field become infinite in a way that does not depend on the coordinate system. These quantities are the scalar invariant curvatures of space-time, which includes a measu... Read more

A Spacetime Surprise: Time Isn’t Just Another Dimension
Interesting…”As if the connection between entropy and the arrow of time is just a case of a starry eyed fanboy falling for a fashionable trend, as opposed to an undeniable and widely accepted fact about physics.”
(Phys.org)—An international team of researchers has conducted an experiment that shows that the arrow of time is a relative concept, not an absolute one. In a paper uploaded to the arXiv server, the team describe their experiment and its outcome, and also explain why their findings do not violate ... Read more
It’s impressive enough that our human brains are made up of the same ‘star stuff’ that forms the Universe, but new research suggests that this might not be the only thing the two have in common.
“Time is related to the space coordinates, but they are not equivalent. Pythagoras’s theorem treats all coordinates on an equal footing (see Euclidean space for more details). We can exchange two space coordinates without changing the length, but we can not simply exchange a space coordinate with time: they are fundamentally different.
It is an entirely different thing for two events to be separated in space and to be separated in time. Minkowski proposed that the formula for distance needed a change. He found that the correct formula was actually quite simple, differing only by a sign from Pythagoras’s theorem:
Where c is a constant and t is the time coordinate.[Note 2] Multiplication by c, which has the dimensions L T −1, converts the time to units of length and this constant has the same value as the speed of light.”
My question is: where does the negative sign come from ?”

Aha! But according to another idea on Ideamill, your head has travelled further than your feet – and moving through space also warps spacetime – so maybe it evens up?
In that case, the question still stands: from the head’s perspective has it REALLY lived longer than the feet, AND from the feet’s perspective have they REALLY lived longer than the head.
Your head has travelled further than your feet - IdeaMill
OMG. These silly “science” writers just love throwing wormholes in to the equation – but the nature of the Universe is amazing enough without having to sex it up with crappy conjecture. When will we learn?
Five ways to travel through time - Cosmos Magazine
Will time stop? Depends if Stephen Hawkin was right… It now appears the entire cosmos is living on borrowed time. It may be a blip within a much grander sweep of time. We now ask, will time end?
Research from the University of Maine said: “Time dilates on moving vessels: the greater the speed, the greater the time dilation. Only when such velocities approach light speed do such effects become significant.
“If, and this one of those extreme IF’s, a vessel could attain light speed, time aboard the vessel would cease altogether.

Law isn’t order – Anarchy isn’t chaos – Entropy isn’t disorder. Stop over-simplifying things. Check the entropy site if you want to get all heated up about it. How cool is this?
The concept of entropy developed in response to the observation that a certain amount of functional energy released from combustion reactions is always lost to dissipation or friction and is thus not transformed into useful work. Early heat-powered engines such as Thomas Savery’s (1698), the Newco... Read more

When I was a depressed teenager in a naff town I would have volunteered for a cryo prison, if I got let out as soon as I reached the future. Better if you could convince your family to come with you though. Too late now.
Some science-fiction works don't risk putting their dangerous criminals in a Cardboard Prison, instead they freeze the criminals. It makes sense, they can't escape without outside help while in cold sleep, but you have to wonder if it's …

Glad they mention the singularities are problems with our math, not with the universe – which is an often mistake some educators make online.

Ahh, so if there is only one God, then it’s the God of nothing, rather than the many Gods for each thing.
So there is only one spacetime boundary despite there being two types of singularity that could take us to perhaps many other universes – all of which live outside of THE one nothing.
Here’s the best video on the subject, sorry.
read ‘Cosmological natural selection’
Agreed, highly recommended

No evidence but good arguments. We do still need evidence right? What if that is a quantum factor too, Probably not testable.
The DNA of the universe are the parameters that govern its laws

introducing the wormhole table… amazing!
Cardboard sculpted furniture should be an idea on here too, looks amazing, and if strong enough probably comfortable too.
Veritasium also mentioned them, watch this too.
Read about singularity sheets here (just don’t lose any sleep over them – heh) https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-24493-y?proof=t%C2%A0
interesting idea but not a thing, according to Akademe Foundation., worth a read though, the mind boggles.

Just forward!
Our brains certainly are! You have got to read this to get the bigger picture https://www.sciencealert.com/human-consciousness-could-be-a-result-of-entropy-study-science
That’s one way of looking at it. and yes, there is only one way to go. Forward Christian soldiers, to our destiny!

its more than an idea, but i guess it was an idea before it was an equation. Brian Cox does well explaining this here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkCWywO93b8

I bet Sean Carroll has this game ready for the next lock-down.
Entropy may not be what it used to be, but order can come back to where it once was. As above, so below. So it goes!

No such thing as a closed system. That’s a spherical cow, physicists milk due to their thirst for knowledge. Cheers!

The next Einstein, and Wheeler, need to think SMALL…
Was a great idea… til quantum mechanics.
Gravity isn’t a force, and Einstein was wrong – just still the best explanation we have at the moment.
Can it uncurve though? I guess you would need something with negative mass in order to flatten it back out again, no?
Or just make them “think” they have served thousands of years- found this, which I read years ago. These drugs are a real time killer for sure.
