How Big is the Singularity?

Elegance is found in Simplicity...

This entire entry is theoretical...I currently have no basis for these thoughts...but are presenting them to begin a discussion in simplicity...

*******************************************

The individual that discovers the single equation that explains the working of the universe (the Grand Unification Theory) will be lauded unlike any physicist that has ever lived...

The equation is envisioned as being extremely simple...not unlike E=MC2.

Consider the fact that the equation is as simple as "1"

I am not advocating that equation...but used the prior as a lead-in to the discussion related to the singularity...

As I consider the theory of "black holes"...objects so dense that light cannot escape it...

Black holes however should not be confused with the singularity...

Why do I say this?

Because they still possess size...

As long as black holes possess the "size" characteristic they are three dimensional...as long as they are three dimensional...they have not entered the realm of the singularity...

******************************************

What is the singularity?

Simply stated it is a single point...

It is the point from which all things emanated at the "BIG" bang!

If you recall from your very first geometry class...a point contains no size...

The singularity transcends our dimension (3rd) yet our dimension is based entirely upon it...

Much like our universe is based upon quantum level entities...

*******************************************

Let's travel back to a point in time prior to the creation of the universe...(our 3 dimensions)

There existed "1"

The singularity...

All that was...is...and will be was within this "1"

Because it lacked size...speed is an impossible concept...

The speed of light..."0" inside of the singularity...

In fact...there is no outside of the singularity...

This brings up a mind boggling concept...that it is infinitely large within the singularity...

Yet...the singularity is infinitely small...

The singularity is the only reality...

So let's travel to the point when the "BANG" occurred...

That is when the void and without form (1 dimension) "took shape!"

That is when for some reason...not yet understood...energy suddenly existed...

Light!

Mass at the speed of light!

The singularity warped into 3 dimensions...

Up...down...forward...backward...left and right...

That which had no dimension was stretched every which way but loose...(ha!ha!)

The further from the singularity the more the stretch!

Yet the universe's tendency is elastic...a desire (for lack of better terms) to return to the singularity...

Stretch out...snap back!

In fact...that elastic tendency is the force that we call "gravity"

The fact that gravity is the "energy of the singularity" and actuality what happens when all things reside within the singularity...it is "weak" and cannot be equated with "weak atomic" "molecular/atomic" and electro-magnetic energies...

Existence starts at that point (the singularity) and will end at the same point...

With or without the missing mass...

So...how big is the singularity?

It isn't big at all...

and the speed of light?

It isn't that the gravity is so great that it can't escape...it is that it ceases to move once it enters it...

Why?  Because distance ceases to exist...therefore motion does!

This can create some great discussions...why?

Because we have created complex explanations for an existence that begs that of simplicity...

The brilliance will be found within simplicity...

That is if the light can escape!

Physics with prose...HOW COOL IS THAT?

More to come!
