Uppsala University researchers have devised a new model for the universe – one that may solve the enigma of dark energy. Their new article, published in Physical Review Letters, proposes a new structural concept, including dark energy, for a universe that rides on an expanding bubble in an additional dimension.

In their article, the scientists propose a new model with dark energy and our universe riding on an expanding bubble in an extra dimension. The whole universe is accommodated on the edge of this expanding bubble. All existing matter in the universe corresponds to the ends of strings that extend out into the extra dimension. The researchers also show that expanding bubbles of this kind can come into existence within the framework of string theory. It is conceivable that there are more bubbles than ours, corresponding to other universes.

What if actually, there's some not-yet-discovered quantum-level mechanism that causes photons to slowly loose energy over time, red-shifting them. And the universe is actually collapsing.

photons are weird as fuck and we don't really know how to deal with them on the largest scales.
for example: a photon will only be emitted if it has a receiver. it's actually a serious problem considering the sparsity of intergalactic space.

>>	Anonymous Mon Dec 31 11:57:59 2018 No.10257255 >>10255041 Okay, but is there any actual evidence for this hypothesis? I believe this falls under philosophy, just like String Theory.
