Also, the fabric of the universe, ie its dimesionality is a property of the mass in it. At a VERY small size, ie MUCH smaller than the Planck Length, the three dimensional structure of the universe starts to break down. Roger Penrose came up with a theory called @Twistor Theory' in which he tries to show that the 3d fabric of spacetime is constructed from 2d elements called spinors, which themselves are dependant on the existance of one dimensional Twistors. The point is that the space the spinors and twistors occupy, and its dimensionality , is a property of the spinors and twistors themselves, not vice versa. But you don't want to read Twistor Theory, it does your brain in (and i don't mean brane either) smart-ass posted by guest |

stephen hawking, who hypothesized the big bang theory in the first place, has mathematically disproven his own theorem. stubborn scientists, media, and laymen have all perpetuated this theory even though its very creator has since disproven it. read up or stop talking, folks. since i have been a member of this forum i have had the glorious opportunity to laugh at more idiotic comments and discussions than ever before. i am baffled at how many people simply do not research their topics AT ALL before they post. no one seems to follow the links that posters leave as explanation for their opinions. no one seems to try to come up with answers to questions on their own. people simply post stupid comments as anonymous guests and then leave, or they build reputations as "mega posters" and do the same thing. there is apparently no difference. i must bow out now, wake posted by wake_walker |

 wake_walker: stephen hawking, who hypothesized the big bang theory in the first place umm History of the theory
In 1927, the Belgian Jesuit priest Georges Lemaître was the first to propose that the universe began with the "explosion" of a "primeval atom". Earlier, in 1918, the Strasbourg astronomer Carl Wilhelm Wirtz had measured a systematic redshift of certain "nebulae", and called this the K-correction; but he wasn't aware of the cosmological implications, nor that the supposed nebulae were actually galaxies outside our own Milky Way. and The term "Big Bang" was coined in 1949 by Fred Hoyle during a BBC radio program, The Nature of Things; the text was published in 1950. Hoyle did not subscribe to the theory and intended to mock the concept. what it says about hawking is In the intervening years, the observational evidence supported the idea that the universe evolved from a hot dense state. Since the discovery of the cosmic microwave background in 1965 it has been regarded as the best theory of the origin and evolution of the cosmos. Before the late 1960s, many cosmologists thought the infinitely dense singularity found in Friedmann's cosmological model was a mathematical over-idealization, and that the universe was contracting before entering the hot dense state and starting to expand again. This is Richard Tolman's oscillating universe. In the sixties, Stephen Hawking and others demonstrated that this idea was unworkable, and the singularity is an essential feature of Einstein's gravity. This led the majority of cosmologists to accept the Big Bang, in which the universe we observe began a finite time ago. but by no means did hawking come up with the theory
