Is the water in the plastic bottles clear when you leave only to cloud up sometime later on your journey?

If there was :space outside the confines of the singularity/universe then our universe, that we reside in, would have to be a sub-universe within a bigger one, for which there is no evidence and is probably nonsensical from a physicist's point of view anyway. I must admit, being a non-scientist, grasping the concept of nothing was difficult...i don't try and visualise nothing anymore...because there isn't anything to visualise!

Swaha This is what I understand, although I must state I'm not a physicist It might be easier to understand what has been explained to you if you imagine yourself inside the singularity (looking out) and, therefore, the expanding universe... which you are. Imagining the balloon idea, as if you are on the outside of it (looking in), can give the mistaken impression that there is something outside the balloon (singularity/universe) and that it is expanding inside a larger, external space/volume, which it isn't. The space/volume represented outside the balloon model boundary is intended to be an imaginary, conceptual one and doesn't actually represent anything in a physicist's mind. Space, time and energy only existed within the confines ot the singularity and the inflating universe. The singularity was not inside anything (since it was everything and everywhere) so any ideas about its position, as a very small point, within a real 3D space are meaningless are they not? Merged post follows: Consecutive posts merged Edwin Hubble discovered that the universe was expanding. From this observation, he reasoned, that if you reverse the evolutionary process, then everything in the universe must, at some point in the past, have been in the same place at the same time, hence the singularity. I think the idea of a singularity, at the beginning of the universe, is supported by the generally accepted view (amongst mainstream physicists and astronomers) that they do actually exist.... within Blackholes. Why do they take this view and not one like you've suggested, for example? Because the singularity idea fits in best with their data, math and observations.so far.

Try Youtube..input: 'English Accents'. Googling 'English accents and dialects' brings up lots of material that you might be interested in but I'm using the UK version of Google. If you are serious about this, I would first find out how to get the UK version of Google as seen by the British..I think it involves using proxies or something. ..I've never tried or thought of this before so I can't tell you how to do it. Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedType this in the address bar: http://www.google.co.uk .This should bring up the UK version of Google then click on the radio button that says 'pages from the uk' before you input your search terms for 'English Accents and Dialects'

Hi I'm interested in science, logical thinking and acoustic guitar. hence my name!
