More “End of the Universe” Crap
Discredit: New Scientist
Readers know the
universe is infinite—it had no beginning and will have not end. And they also
know that “Dark Energy” was invented to save the Big Bang Theory—energy does
not exist; it is a calculation. I was especially amused by New Scientist
pushing the following two propaganda pieces in their lecture series. They even have
the nerve to charge 12£ for such nonsense.
Here it is straight from the “national enquirer of science”:
"THE END OF THE UNIVERSE
We know the universe had a beginning and physicists agree that one day
it will end, but how will it finish? Will our universe collapse in upon itself,
rip itself apart, or even – in the next five minutes – succumb to an
inescapable expanding bubble of doom?
Drawing on cutting-edge theory and brand new results from the most
powerful telescopes and particle colliders, theoretical astrophysicist Katie
Mack, explores five possible finales for the universe and what they would look
like (if anyone were still around to see
them): the Big Crunch, Heat Death, Vacuum Decay, the Big Rip and the Bounce.”

WILL DARK ENERGY DESTROY THE UNIVERSE?
After 14 billion years, you might expect the expansion of the cosmos to
be slowing down. Professor of
astrophysics at the University of Sussex, Kathy Romer describes the mysterious
substance, known as dark energy, that seems to be causing the universe to rip
itself apart and introduces a new generation of industrial-scale international
astronomy projects seeking to explore the underlying physics.”
Egads!

Oh well, maybe they will have a video you could watch for
giggles.
