IS THIS UNIVERSE SIMILAR TO BALLOON?

CAN THE EXPANDING UNIVERSE BE COMPARED TO AN INFLATING BALLOON?

     Some astronomers compare the expanding universe to an inflating balloon. Keep some dots on the balloon. When the balloon is inflating the dots move away from each other. Consider one fixed dot. Consider a nearby dot.  The speed of the dot that is at double the distance from the nearby dot is also double than the speed of the nearby dot whiles the balloon is expanding. The same phenomenon is also occurring in the expanding universe also. Consider each dot as a galaxy. If we are at one galaxy and look at the galaxies in the universe, the speed of the galaxies is in direct proportion to the distance from the galaxy from where we look into the universe. This is the same phenomenon from whichever galaxy we look into the universe.

     In the year 1925, Edwin Hubble an astronomer from America, demonstrated that the universe contains numerous galaxies besides our own galaxy, Milky Way. In 1929 Hubble further discovered that the galaxies are moving farther away from our galaxy with a speed in direct proportion to their distance from our galaxy, by studying red shift of light coming from other galaxies.

     In the balloon the elastic rubber is expanding while the dots are attached to it at a fixed place. The same phenomenon occurs in the universe too. The rubber sheet of balloon is compared to invisible space. All the galaxies are attached to the space, and the space is expanding at tremendous speed and thereby it appears as if the galaxies are expanding at tremendous speed. This phenomenon is well accepted by many astronomers.

     However there are certain things that this expanding theory cannot explain. Our galaxy, the Milky Way galaxy and the galaxy Andromeda are moving towards each other with a speed of 300000 miles per hour (130 k m per second). It takes about 5 billion years for their collision. Also some astronomers believe that our galaxy, along with other galaxies is moving towards a massive “The Great Attractor” which is considered to be a million times heavier than our own galaxy, the Milky Way. It will take our galaxy about 15 billion years to reach the center of the Great Attractor. All such phenomena are contradicting the theory of the expanding universe. But the theory of expanding universe is well established by the American astronomer, Edwin Hubble by studying the red shift from the light coming from other galaxies. Hence it cannot be overlooked. We may have to search for the modified theories.

     Let us assume that the universe is bound by space, the invisible elastic sheet of very much less density capable of carrying the entire universe with sufficient thickness and invisible energy and it is being expanding due to high  intensive pressure of the initial Big Bang at the time of creation. Let us also assume that the binding force (may be called dark energy) was unable to bind the expanding space at one stage resulting in breakdown in space. What happens when a balloon is broken we all know. Since the expanding universe is similar to the inflating balloon, the same thing happens to the universe bound by space. The balloon gets broken into small pieces and each piece gets contracted to its center. The same thing happens to the universe bound by space. If we consider a single broken piece of space all the galaxies in it may be moving towards the center of that piece which is similar to the Great Attractor mentioned above. There may be many Great Attractors as there is the possibility of many broken pieces out of which our galaxy is a part of one only. The same shrinking phenomenon of individual broken pieces of space can also explain the fact that our galaxy and Andromeda galaxy are moving towards each other. There is also a possibility that some other galaxies might be moving towards each other. But they may not collide after certain shrinking of space, just as in a broken rubber sheet of a balloon.

     The phenomenon of expansion of universe can also be explained in breakage of space. The broken pieces of space shrink together toward the center known as “The Great Attractor”. The galaxies farther away from the center move slowly towards center and the galaxies nearer to the center move with great speed towards center. Due to this phenomenon each galaxy is moving farther away from each other as seen from red shift of light coming from them. Only variation is that the distance between the Great Attractor and any galaxy is getting reduced. The Great Attractor is made up of both the visible matter that we can see along with the so-called dark matter that we cannot see. Even the broken pieces of space are moving away from each other. Hence the Universe appears to be expanding even after its breakdown. This is the theory to be confirmed by the astronomers.

     Some astronomers believe that there may be other universes in the form of balloons. If so what are these quasars. They are away from earth than any other known object. The energy of a quasar is equivalent 100 normal galaxies. Light from quasars takes billions of years to reach earth. There is need to re-examine these quasars whether they have any connection with other universes. Some astronomers believe that our universe is dying but not before 100 billion years.

     There is difference of opinion regarding expansion and contraction of the universe among the astronomers. Majority of astronomers support the expanding theory. My attempt of writing this article is to support both the theories. This has to be confirmed by the astronomers. This theory need not be taken for granted as it is for the present.
          In general the overall universe is expanding. But there are isolated spots that are contracting. The universal balloon appears to be exploded, resulting in overall expansion and contraction at some isolated stretches as explained above. Yet the life of our universe is sufficiently large up to 100 billion years. But the planet earth becomes uninhabitable only after one billion years from now. It is not known that any superior life exists anywhere in our universe, or in other universes if exists.

     According to Indian saints, the soul can take infinitesimal form and taking light ray or any other shorter wave lengths as vehicle and travel anywhere into the universe at the speed of light. Some are of the opinion that the soul can be anywhere in the universe by wish only. That means that there is no limit to the speed of the soul. Ancient Indians were able to leave body by wish and make a journey into the universe and reenter their bodies later duly keeping their bodies under normal condition by power. They were even able to enter the dead bodies of animals and make them alive as long as their soul remains in it. Science and technology are fast improving. Now the man can prepare human D N A in the laboratory. He is also claiming that he can prepare human beings from chemicals. The day will come that the man may be able to separate soul from body temporarily and get it reenter the body at the appropriate time, so that the soul will travel into the universe for the purpose of investigating. Before the time earth becomes uninhabitable man will be able to select some other inhabitable planet from some other star and reach there for further continuation of his life. There appears to be no limit to the technology also. The inter relationship between physical body and the spiritual body is closing in. Yet it may take a sufficiently long time. 

IS THE GOD'S CREATION OF LIFE FURTHER SIMPLIFIED BY MAN?

IS THE GOD’S CREATION OF LIFE FURTHER SIMPLIFIED BY MAN?

(Certain information is collected from the newspaper Times of India)

God created male and female almost in every species for further development of life.  Now the scientists are proposing to develop even human life from chemicals. (please go through my post ‘ Can humans be created from chemicals?). As an additional development they are even proposing to develop life using skin cells and sperm. The new study overthrows the idea that it is only possible to produce children using an egg and fertilizing it with sperm. A new experiment on mice proved that it would be possible to fuse sperm with ordinary cells like skin or other tissue, without using cloning, to produce babies. As such it could lead the way to human reproduction that completely cuts the female part of the process.

     It would allow a man to fertilize his own cells with his own sperm, producing offspring that would use only his genes and those inherited from his parents.

     “our work challenges the dogma, held since embryologists first observed mammalian eggs around 1827 and observed fertilization 50 years later, that only an egg cell fertilized  with a sperm cell can result in live mammal birth,” said lead scientist Tony Perry, a molecular embryologist from the university of Bath. But Perry also made it clear the tests on mice only prove that the technique would work in principle.

     The study produced 30 mouse pups with a success rate of 24%. That finding matters because parthenogenotes are similar to other ordinary cells, like skin cells. Both are mitotic, and if an offspring can be produced from one, then it should be possible to create them from the other.

     In principle and by experiments on mice, it looks as if what is stated above appears to be true. Man is simplifying God’s creation of life by understanding several other secrets under God’ creation. We have to wait and see everything in practice in the near future.   

ARE WE MOVING AT A SPEED OF MORE THAN 2 MILLION K M PER HOUR ?

ARE WE MOVING AT THE RATE OF MORE THAN 2 MILLION K M PER HOUR ?

(Most of the information is collected from Google .com)

The answer to the above question is yes. It is confirmed by the cosmic background explorer satellite in 1989 and 1990. Accordingly our galaxy the Milky Way and its neighbors, the local group is moving at 600 k m per second or 1.34 million miles per hour (2.1 million k m per hour) in the direction of the constellation Hydra. Since the solar system is only a part of the galaxy Milky Way, we are also moving along with our galaxy. But we don’t feel the effect of the speed as we are attached to the planet Earth by gravity.

     The diameter of Milky Way galaxy is about 100000 light years. (One light year is the distance travelled by light in one year at the rate of 300000 k m per second). It contains about 200 billion stars as per latest available information. The Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are approaching each other with a speed of 300000 miles per hour (130 k m per second). It takes about 5 billion years for their collision. They are likely to merge without causing damage to the individual stars and form a greater galaxy. The Andromeda galaxy is likely to contain about 300 billion stars. Milky Way moves through space within the cluster of galaxies it is a member of, and this cluster in turn moves through space towards yet another larger cluster of galaxies in the direction of the constellation Virgo with a speed of approximately 300 k m per second. Therefore the speed of the Milky Way galaxy is not a single number, its value is relative to the speed of other objects.

     Astronomers believe a huge concentration of matter in this direction. Some people call it ‘The Great Attractor’. Our galaxy contain the equivalent of 10^11 (10 to the power 11) solar masses. The Great Attractor is estimated to be on the scale of 10^17 solar masses, a million times heavier than the Milky Way. Its attraction is so strong that we are being sucked into it at the rate of 600 k m per second. The Great Attractor is something on the order of 150 million light years from earth. (One light year is 10^ 13 k m). It takes about 15 billion years to arrive at the center of The Great Attractor.  Since forces accelerate objects we will surely arrive there a few billion years earlier.

     The galaxies in our neighborhood are also rushing at a speed of nearly 1000 k m per second towards The Great Attractor, which has a span of 500 million light years and is made up of both visible matters along with the so called dark matter that we cannot see. The dark matter is neither dark nor black, but it is invisible as it cannot reflect light and cannot emit light, but it has got gravitational pull only.

     Besides the motion of our galaxy, Milky Way the Sun has got its motion round the center of galaxy.  It takes our Sun approximately 225 million years to make the trip around the galaxy, which is known as a galactic year. In all of recorded human history, we have barely moved in our long path around the Milky Way. The Sun has to move at an astounding speed of 483000 miles per hour (792000 k m per hour). The Earth anchored to the Sun by gravity follows along at the same fantastic speed. The Sun is almost a perfect sphere of diameter 846000 miles (1360000 k m) approximately. The Sun has about 99.9% mass of the entire solar system; balance of one tenths of 1% belongs to all planets, moons, asteroids, comets, meteors, and interplanetary dust and gas. More than a million Earth-sized planets can be packed inside the Sun. Rotation period of Sun around its axis is 24 Earth days and 16 hours. The age of the Sun is about 4600,000,000 years. Its surface temperature is 10,472 degrees F. Its temperature at the center is 27,000,000 degrees F. The Sun has 9 planets namely Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. (Pluto is now a day’s is not considered as a planet). Life exists only on the planet Earth as on today, not only in solar system but in the entire universe.

     In continuation of the above mentioned motions the planet Earth has its motion around the Sun. The full path of Earth around the Sun is about 600 million miles (970 million k m). The Earth moves around the Sun at a speed of 66000 miles per hour (107,000 k m per hour). The distance of Earth from the Sun is 93,000,000 miles (150,000,000 k m). Earth’s diameter across the equator is 7925 miles (12756 k m). Earth’s atmosphere contains about 78% Nitrogen, 21% oxygen. It has one moon. Length of a day on earth is 24 hours. Length of the year on Earth is 365 days and 6 hours.

     As seen above the planet Earth, where we, human beings are living is having so many speeds in the space. The maximum speed is that of our galaxy Milky Way. Hence we can conclude that we are moving in space at a speed of more than 2 million kilometers per hour, without even feeling the effect of that speed, as we are attached to the planet Earth by gravity. 

CAN HUMANS BE CREATED FROM CHEMICALS?

CAN HUMANS BE CREATED FROM CHEMICALS ?

(Information collected from newspaper Times of India)

     The answer to the above question from many scientists is yes. A synthetic human genome potentially could make it possible to create humans who lack biological parents- raising the spectre, for instance, of made-to-order human beings with special genetic enhancements. A group of 25 scientists on Thursday (02-06-2016) proposed an ambitious project to create a synthetic human genome, or genetic blue print, in an endeavour that is bound to raise concerns over the extent to which human life can or should be engineered. A synthetic genome would involve using chemicals to create the D N A present in human chromosomes.

     They said they hoped to get $100 million in public and private funding to launch the projet this year and expects total costs of less than $3 billion. According to scientists the project includes growing transplantable human organs, engineering immunity to viruses, engineering cancer resistance, and accelerating vaccine and drug development using human cells and organs. They would also consider ethical, legal and social implications on the project, which is likely to take a period of about 10 years. The new project would involve not reading but writing the human genome – synthesizing all three billion units of D N A from chemicals.

     But such an attempt would raise ethical issues. Could scientists create humans with certain kinds of traits, perhaps people born and bred to be soldiers? Or might it be possible to make copies of specific people? “Would it be okay to sequence and synthesize Einstein’s genome? All these matters need great consideration. Only future will reveal what is going to happen.

GRAVITATIONAL WAVES FROM THE MERGER OF MASSIVE BLACK HOLES

     At a distance of 1.3 billion light years away from us, great phenomena of merger of two massive black holes occurred. (One light year is the distance travelled by light in one year at a speed of 300,000 k m per second). They are part of binary system orbiting one another. One is   36 times of our solar mass and the other is 29 times of our solar mass. The two compacted black holes are about 150 k m across only; whereas the Sun’s diameter is 1,360,000 k m. Thereby one can imagine how dense the black holes are when they are many times massive than Sun in spite of their small size. While orbiting one another they came closer and suddenly in a split second they collided and merged into a single black hole of size equivalent to a mass of 62 Suns, with 3 solar mass worth of energy emitted as gravitational waves. The power released by the merger of black holes is equivalent to 50 times the power of all the stars in the visible universe. Since we are very far away in space there is no danger to us.

     This merger took place 1.3 billion light years back and the resultant gravitational waves were received on Earth on September 14, 2015 by L I G O (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave observatory) located in America. It is understood that the speed of the gravitational waves is the same as that of light. This observatory use a technique called Laser interferometry to detect these fluctuations in space time, which are as small as 10^-18m, or about 1/1000^th diameter of a proton. It can detect gravitational waves in a volume of one billion cubic light years, covering about one million Milky Way type galaxies.

     The existence of gravitational waves was first predicted by Albert Einstein through his famous theory of general relativity in the year 1916. According to him gravity bends space-time, and more massive the object is, the larger the effect. Space is like a rubber sheet. Things that have mass cause the rubber sheet to bend if it hits it. The more the mass, the more space gets bent and distorted by gravity. The Sun is massive and causes a big distortion of the space around it and due to this distortion the Earth goes around the Sun. There is no actual force pulling the Earth around. It is just a bending of the space. Gravitational waves are produced when masses accelerate, changing distortion of space. Everything with mass and/or energy can make gravitational waves.
          Albert Einstein’s theories are amazing. There were no well developed scientific instruments   to observe and develop any theory. How his mind worked on such things is an unsolved mystery. He also stated that light ray bends when it passes near a star. Long after it was proved to be correct, at the time of eclipse to the Sun. His formula E=mc^2 is a well known one world over. Moreover his theory on general relativity is most wonderful. It was proved practically only after 100 years, thanks to L I G O. But how could he develop all these theories are a mystery. When he wrote about general relativity only three persons in the world could understand it only to some extent. It took 100 years to solve his theories practically with great work. No ordinary scientist is capable of thinking like that. What is the specialty in him is a matter of consideration. Even his brain is also preserved for further study. In the ancient days when human thinking was not fully matured God used to be born as a human being to guide people in the right way. Now in the modern world there is no such need. If God has to take reincarnation, it should be as a scientist or as a physicist to guide humans in an advanced stage.  Probably this is the case with the famous Albert Einstein. World has to bow down before him. His discoveries paved way to unlock the hidden secrets of creation. His gravitational waves along with other very minor waves and particles may be linked to human thought rays that may make human beings as super human beings one day or other in near future.

     Light, ultraviolet, x-rays, radio waves are easily absorbed by dust and gas, leaving much of the universe hidden. The beauty of gravitational waves is that, while weak, they penetrate anything in their path. We will be able to receive cosmic signals for the first time that were previously entirely hidden; measure the frequency of major cosmic phenomena such as supernovas or merger of black holes – events that shape star systems and galaxies; hear the noises produced by gravitation of celestial bodies on the fabric of space time.

     Simply speaking we are heading towards the secrets of creation. Let us wait and see.

DANGERS DUE TO RELIGION, CASTE AND RACISM

Other dangers may come and go, but this danger seems to be a continuous one, right from the ancient times till today, even in the modern civilized world. There is lot of cumulative destruction of human lives due to clashes in religion, caste and racism, may be even more than the result of other occasional dangers I mentioned somewhere.  Unable to understand the governing principles behind the creation of human life, different people thought in a different way depending on their own experiences to unfold the secrets of human life. As a result they introduced their own religion depending on their imagination and experience. Once they settled with their own God of their own religion, they have understood well that their prayers are being rewarded and their faith increased, and they felt that their own religion is great. This applies to all religions. Hence what is common in prayers of individual religions is to be considered. It is a simple fact that thought power is behind all religious prayers.

Universe seems to have come from some great thought power of God. This is very well established in VEDAS of India as well as Bible of Christianity and may be in many other religions too. Even the latest scientific thinking is also leading to the same idea. Even the matter of the Universe was created from thought power of God. God has given similar mini thought to humanity. Hence we are connected to the entire Universe and God by thought. It is from this fact that a subject known as ASTROLOGY came into existence. Once I did not believe in astrology. But when I practically studied astrology, to my surprise I could clearly establish the relation between mind matter and soul. This is the inter connection under creation itself.  We can operate many things by thought power. THOUGHT POWER IS THE OPERATING SYSTEM OF HUMANITY. Ancient Indian Maharishis achieved great things by meditating in Himalayas and generating great thought power. It is a well established fact.

Though this thought power is behind every religious prayer, and all prayers of all religions work, most of the religious persons failed to understand this fact, and felt that their own religion is great, resulting in religious clashes, even causing destruction to humanity. There are religions which try to rule over the world even today. Not only this there are stampedes in religious functions due to irregular arrangements causing deaths, and some religious activities themselves are harmful to humanity and to the religion concerned. Some religions play with fire due to some blind belief causing destruction to humanity. Right understanding can save humanity from religious wars, and destruction.

Caste is one great obstacle to progress of humanity. In the ancient days those who dominated over a part of society became kings. They have distributed land and property to those who are loyal to them, neglecting those who could not influence them. Those who are close to the king became rich whereas those who could not influence the king became poor. Those who dominated others grabbed the land and other property. There is need to rectify this discrepancy, except from those who become rich by merit. Besides this there is caste feeling. The upper class is always trying to dominate over the lower class. Those who became rich by influence and as might as right dominated over others and declared themselves as belongs to superior caste and that trend is continuing till today. Equality among all castes and all people should be restored step by step. There are plans of the Government to bring equality among all castes and all people, but it seems to be not fully successful.

Another important one to bring equality among humanity is equality in race. As seen from history black people were treated as slaves by the white people. The colour of the skin is dependent on the location. In hot countries people turn black, whereas in cold countries people become white. There is some improvement in equality between black and white people nowadays. It has to be improved further.

For the sake of human development, religion, caste and racism should be over thrown and there is need to form a world government with proper representation from each country.

Looking back into the ancient times when human thinking was not fully developed, there was need for the God to come to Earth to guide the human beings. In a country like India there are about 10 reincarnations of God. If we consider this as a regional appearance of God to guide human beings, we have to think that how many reincarnations of God would have occurred when we consider the entire world population. It seems most of such reincarnations were not recorded. Only a few such reincarnations outside India are available, the most important, and the most popular reincarnation of God outside India being that of Jesus Christ.

When human thinking was in an undeveloped state there was need for God to guide the people. But at the present stage human thinking and intelligence have gone to such higher extent, they are able to prepare ROBOTS of great artificial intelligence, that can even rule over humanity in future. Under the present circumstances there may not be any need for God to guide humanity. Humanity can influence God directly by thought power only. That may be the reason that the reincarnation of God in human shape with movement of body and full ability to speak and influence humanity and to guide them in proper direction has not so far happened in the last 2000 years and it may not happen in the near future.

Except the facts that “THOUGHT POWER IS THE OPERATING SYSTEM OF HUMAN LIFE”, which I have accidentally understood as explained under my post ‘SECRETS FROM EXPERIENCE’, the rest are only imaginary. As such it is for the reader to understand in his own way of thinking. Of course nobody knows what exactly the creation is and what should be the purpose of creation.

Some religions say that creation is only a play of God. But human life deals with extreme suffering as well as extreme happiness. Generally God is said to be kind. If so can God enjoy with such a great human suffering? It looks not reasonable. Some religions say that an angel of God rebelled against Him, and turned into evil SATAN, and all sufferings to humanity are resulting from misdeeds from Satan. Even this theory also did not sound so well, simply because, if God is the creator of Satan, he can also destroy it at will. So I do feel we have to formulate a new theory, outside any religious belief.

For this purpose we have to look into the universe as a whole, including varieties of life in the universe as well as matter in the universe.

If we consider matter, there is the creation of antimatter also. If matter and antimatter meet there is total destruction and high energetic gamma rays are liberated. (Please read my post on ‘Matter and Antimatter’). If we consider life even from the stage of bacteria, it is well known that there is a very harmful bacterium that destroys life as well as extremely good bacteria that support life. If we consider the most intelligent life on Earth that is of humanity we also find bad human beings that are fond of destruction of life as well as good human beings that support development of life on Earth. These opposite forces are quite visible everywhere in the creation. Not only on this planet Earth, if we enter the spiritual world as investigated by the experts with sixth sense (E S P) it is well established that there are regions of good angels, spirit guides as well as regions for evil forces like devils and demons. This will lead us to think about creation itself. Has the creation resulted from the war between two great indestructible forces of GOOD and BAD namely GOD and SATAN? (Kindly note that the word Satan I used here has nothing to do with the Satan of the Bible but it only indicates evil). This sounds better than any other religious theories mentioned already. We have to elaborate this theory.

The Universe is full of Galaxies. There is tremendous good and evil activity at the centre of the galaxies. Clash of matter and antimatter getting each other destroyed. The visible Universe is only about 4.9% of the total universe. The rest of the universe is of dark matter and dark energy which can neither emit light nor absorb light. (Please go through my post on “Matter, Dark Matter and Dark Energy”). But it has only gravitational pull. Can it be called a dead matter? Not known yet. If light is the essence of creation, what is the dark matter that has no connection with light? Is this the result of interaction between matter and antimatter? If we consider God as the creator (of matter) and Satan as the destroyer by creating antimatter, and also assume that dark matter and dark energy is the result of interaction between matter and antimatter, we can come to the conclusion that God is only 4.9% superior to Satan. We are only living in the balance universe that escaped destruction from Satan. Simply speaking creation is the result of war between God and Satan. Perhaps God wanted to reunite the damaged part of his spirit in his clash with Satan by creation, whereas the Satan started obstructing from God’s action. We are living at the outer edge of our galaxy and so we are safe to a great extent. Life may not be possible at the centre of any Galaxy. Perhaps we have just escaped the evil power of Satan.

Whatever it may be our purpose is to bring unity among all human beings for the sake of God. For this purpose we have to eliminate all obstacles on our way including religion caste and racism etc.

All religions are equally good in some respect and equally bad in some other respect. So we just can’t criticize any particular religion. Only one has to think what benefits the religion is doing to mankind, and what damage the religion is doing to humanity. It is always safe to have one religion known as humanity instead of so many religions. Simply speaking there should be proper understanding of human life, God and creation from the available knowledge, as human knowledge is increasing with every generation, and we have to formulate new theory to support the available information on different aspects. This approach may lead to progress in human understanding. There is no point in sticking on to what ancients have written with knowledge of their own time. The knowledge is very much improved now. It is better to give up religion, caste and racism for the sake of unity among all human beings. A world government may also be desirable. I hope that something good will happens to humanity if we think in the direction suggested as above. For the sake of unity and peace, we may have to sacrifice religion.
