sciguy1 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 im not sure if this has ever been though about before, but i was doing some thinking about where everything came from, and i was wondering what if there was a law saying that there can not be nothing, so upon the being of nothing, the universe will create something out of nothing to fill that space. Im not sure if it makes sense i just know that people have never been able to have a space truly filled with nothing, and i just though that seemed relevant.

To my knowledge we have never actually found "nothing" even in the best vacuum we can create http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_particle Virtual particles also kind of lend themselves to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean NOTHING = SPACE Lots of people think like this. According to the P.P.Principle NOTHING has never existed in this universe, at any time. (This has never existed in past, not existed in present and will never exist in future also.) Other than this NOTHING every thing is existence. About this theory discussion has done in this forums 'speculation' also and accepted about NOTHING has never existed. Followed is the theory link.

Airbrush Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Very interesting. Something does not come from nothing. What may appear to be nothing is actually something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EWyatt Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 According to the P.P.Principle NOTHING has never existed in this universe, at any time. If NOTHING has never existed, how then did ANYTHING come to exist in the first place? Note: by ANYTHING, I mean energy too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36grit Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I contemplated this idea once. The closest thing I could find to nothing is the space between electron orbits. This is the only true vacuum I could come up with. Nothing exists there, not even time. The electrons quantum leap right over it and never skip a beat. Complete and absolute energy obselent distance.

URAIN Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) If NOTHING has never existed, how then did ANYTHING come to exist in the first place? Note: by ANYTHING, I mean energy too! I think that will be say in my third theory. (This is my first theory) I contemplated this idea once. The closest thing I could find to nothing is the space between electron orbits. This is the only true vacuum I could come up with. Nothing exists there, not even time. The electrons quantum leap right over it and never skip a beat. Complete and absolute energy obselent distance. Again here (as I said in my 1st post of the topic) your meaning for 'nothing' is space. Please don't call the space as the nothing. Did you have not read the theory or speculations? (Edit) If we consider 'nothing' as a word, then this word is also not 'nothing'. It is something, because 'nothing' word is existed. We will not identify it by any words or signs or by anything. Identification for the 'nothing' is only done by the things which are existed now or existed at past. The real nothing is out of imagination. * We imagine the things in the way related to which was existed before and which are existed now. * Our imaginations are the continuations of the past existence or present existence. * There is no real new or real end. All things existed for ever. * But we know something and much is left unknown or from not knowing. (which are existed before or which are existed past, means presently we don't know about these. But now also they have existed.) Edited December 16, 2011 by URAIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tres Juicy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 How would you even get to nothing? Even if you could create a perfect vacuum with nothing but space inside it, how do you then go about removing the space?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info. Wilczek's ideas are supported by particle physicist Victor John Stenger.

merlin wood Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 A requiremt for a theory of everything could be that it should explain, in terms of cause and effect, how the universe is of a certain form as radiant energy, atoms and molecules of the elements and compounds of matter, species of living organisms, galaxies of stars and planetary systems, and groups, clusters and walls of galaxies around cosmic voids. Also, given that the universe has expanded over some 13.7 billion years from a very small and dense ‘Big Bang’ origin, the theory should account for how this expansion and its measured acceleration occurred, and how the universe evolved into its form as astronomically observed. Does any recognized theory in physics look like it could achieve this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin wood Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The Big Bang theory is as close as we can get. If you can figure out a single theory of "everything", then you deserve a nobel prize! Well, having given the problem rather a lot of thought over the years, I've concluded that the development of such a general theory of natural organisation is possible given the universal action of a nonlocal and extradimesional cause, and as deduced initially from a causal hidden variables quantum hypothesis. But then who'd take any notice of an old crank like me with no academic physics qualification at all, and who would proposes a complete revolution in theoretical physics and comology? But then, for a start, one could ask does cosmological inflation sound like a very sensible theory really? Prof. Roger Penrose certainlt doesn't think so, anyway.

merlin wood Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) Well, I cannot insist strongly enough that what is most crucially and, indeed, most tragically lacking in human knowledge is an understnding of the universe that includes life on Earth that requires a detailed, thorough and methodical account that sufficienty justifies and describes enough properties of a nonlocally acting cause, and from its many and various effects in addition to those of the known forces or interactions. The Big Bang theory is as close as we can get. If you can figure out a single theory of "everything", then you deserve a nobel prize! Wonder where my posts keep going to?
