Dark Energy Quotes

“If we imagined “space” before any universe came into Being, there would be only an absolute vacuum. Absolute vacuum is not “contaminated” by anything; no matter, no energy, everything is pure because only nothing can be completely pure. Primordial vacuum, as we know, is not space because where every imaginary point is the same, there is no point and no distance from anything to anything; this means there is only a zero.”

“If this something is only the Universe we are able and capable of experiencing, or if we imagine the Universe, which is, most likely, the real, much bigger one, the space would still bear the characteristics and “colors” of the one we can experience. Beyond this realm, there would be no other point of reference (Universe), and this Universe would be only a speck in the realm of nothingness. Even if this Universe emanates some of its fundamental forces into the realm of nothingness, this would still be of minimal reach regarding the potential “vastness” of “space” (vacuum) outside that universe. With one Universe like this, there would still be no distance between it and anything else and outside of it (or, precisely, after some point outside of it); time and space, as we understand them, would not exist.”

“Regardless of how far or how close any hypothetical point in space and time would be, it would still be the same point because nothingness is the same everywhere. The only point of nothingness is nothingness itself. There is no real space beyond nothingness and no real-time. The only way for nothingness to “survive” or “outlive” its nothingness is to live with the Being and move into the Being. The symbiosis of the Being with the Nonbeing is the source of life and space and time (space-time continuum).”

“If there is only one small Universe, as ours is, in comparison to the vast potential of the Being and the Nonbeing, then this Universe would be smaller, in comparison to this potential, than quark is in comparison to our Universe. At this point, we will bring in Einstein’s Cosmological Constant (“biggest blunder”) to clarify and present this idea within the context of dark energy and the Macro-Universe.”

“Suppose we use cosmological constant interchangeably with dark energy. That leads us to conclude that this kind of a universe, like our own if limited to our perception of it, would not be a sound basis for explaining dark energy or cosmological constant within the realm of the Absolute or its potential. The real meaning of the Absolute is not the Absolute itself but its potential. Its potential is both in the Being and in the Nonbeing.”

“Not only the “infinitesimal” Universe like ours (from the point of the Absolute) would not meet the standard of the cosmological constant, it would not explain the dark energy, but it also would not meet the standard of nothingness or the absolute vacuum concerning their potential respectively. Our Universe does not even remotely reach the unlimited potential as one manifestation of the Absolute.”

“There are two absolute potentials of the Absolute: Absolute potential for particular manifestations and absolute potential for infinity. No specific thing can be infinite, and no particular thing can be absolute. Nevertheless, any thing can possess absolute value within and serve the system. The absolute potential is not in its infinity but in its potential for infinity. Within the realm of the Absolute, if we exclude the material universe, there is no space and time, and our concepts of infinity or finitude are mostly related to our view of space-time relations.”

“If there is only one Universe, like ours, it is too small and does not allow for exercising the highest possible, absolute potential at a given moment. For the highest possible absolute potential, viewed through infinity, to be exercised, there must be not only an infinity of possible worlds (universes) at different points (times) but the highest possible number (in this case, quantity is the main quality) of worlds at the same time at any time. Suppose there is no highest possible number of worlds (not only in variations but structurally). Under such conditions, the highest possible potential at any given time would be impossible because the chance, the main source of a potential infinity, would be unable to function and exercise itself to the highest possible potential.”

“Chance is the source of potential infinity and the primary source of real meaning in the manifestation (Universe) of the Absolute. Regardless of the unlimited potential for variations in quantity and quality within one universe as we understand it, such a world would still be limited in its manifestation and meaning if it were not a part of the Omniverse.”

“The visible universe contains only 5% of visible matter, whereas dark matter constitutes 27%, and 68% is dark energy. According to some scientists, dark matter may be in other dimensions. This idea is compatible with my idea of an Omniverse, although a Multiverse does not need to be in other dimensions. Nevertheless, such a Multiverse may contain material (perhaps unapproachable by human beings) beyond our imagination.”

“Since scientists have no answer to dark matter (except dark matter filament), the most logical explanation is that it is invisible. Some questions remain: 1. Can matter be invisible (or imperceptible by our senses and instruments)? 2. Even if matter could be theoretically invisible, is it possible that such a vast amount of matter, like dark matter, would escape all our knowledge and existing laws of physics and be unidentified until recently but wholly invisible and beyond our reach? 3. If dark matter is imperceptible, what makes it imperceptible? 4. Is it potentially perceptible but not perceptible to us as human beings? 5. Is there anything that would still avoid perception even if we possessed the absolute perceptive ability or technology with these abilities? 6. Or, is dark matter our way of explaining the unexplainable and offering a linguistic form to unknown phenomena? 7. Or, is it our inability to go beyond the spectrum, outside the existing frames, and try to decipher the unknown beyond the known frame of reality or what we see and understand as reality and the Universe? The answer to the first question is known; even atoms are invisible not only to the eyes but to microscopes. It is, therefore, theoretically possible that matter can be hidden and imperceptible. Still, it is hard to imagine that vast amounts of the mass of the Universe would stay unaccounted for within the realm of already advanced understanding of the laws of physics, instruments, and experiments. It would be possible to prove mathematically, based on what we already know about the Universe, the mass, the dispersion of energy and mass, and by these comparisons to conclude, without the CERN accelerator, that this is, most likely, impossible. This was a short answer to the second question. The third question is important because it would lead scientists in the right direction by avoiding the possible net of perplexed ideas. If we have already established that something exists, it would be better to define it as precisely as possible to avoid guessing only. In addition, how do we guess? We do not know anything about its nature, origin, or how it came into existence except that we came to this discovery almost accidentally by pure and relatively simple measurements and experiments. But what about us? How do we think? What methods do we use in experiments and the way we think? The answer to these questions could lead to better discoveries than only focusing on something we do not know and, even worse if we do not know where to look for it. Based on an accidental discovery, it is a good start to conclude that there is more mass in the Universe than can be detected. Still, it would be better and more productive to go beyond the Universe as we see it, beyond our existing knowledge and perception, not toward the stars we already know but toward another bottomless sky of darkness and the unknown. Although light is the source of life, darkness is also the source of light and life. Maybe the brightest “star” sleeps in the darkness and feeds the world from darkness. Is there only one Universe? If we start from the premise of the Big Bang theory, it would be logical to ask why there is only one Big Bang. It is easy to conclude that if there is a Big Bang at one point in “space” (nothingness), there can be another one at another “point,” past or future, although this may sound strange.”

“The source of 68% of the mass-energy density is dark energy. The Universe is one, even if we use the word Multiverse. If it is not one, then it is not a Universe. If what we understand as the Universe is not one, it does not mean that there are multiple universes but that our ideas about the Universe may need to be corrected or that they do not quite correctly represent reality. If this is the case, we should adapt the language to reality, not the reality to language.”

“If we accept a Big Bang (although our view would be the same regardless of this premise), we must accept the possibility of multiple Big Bangs anywhere else. We can imagine many more (some even bigger) Big Bangs and “universes” (like our own) than there are galaxies in our Universe. Now, we will name this Universe, containing all others, Omniverse (Omni-Universe) or Macro Universe. Dark energy is the “unmeasurable” energy of the Omniverse (Macro Universe).”

“To escape the throngs, we decided to see the new Neil Degrasse Tyson planetarium show, Dark Universe. It costs more than two movie tickets and is less than thirty minutes long, but still I want to go back and see it again, preferably as soon as possible. It was more visually stunning than any Hollywood special effect I’d ever seen, making our smallness as individuals both staggering and - strangely - rather comforting. Only five percent of the universe consists of ordinary matter, Neil tells us. That includes all matter - you, and me, and the body of Michael Brown, and Mork’s rainbow suspenders, and the letters I wrote all summer, and the air conditioner I put out on the curb on Christmas Day because I was tired of looking at it and being reminded of the person who had installed it, and my sad dying computer that sounds like a swarm of bees when it gets too hot, and the fields of Point Reyes, and this year’s blossoms which are dust now, and the drafts of my book, and Israeli tanks, and the untaxed cigarettes that Eric Garner sold, and my father’s ill-fitting leg brace that did not accomplish what he’d hoped for in terms of restoring mobility, and the Denver airport, and haunting sperm whales that sleep vertically, and the water they sleep in, and Mars and Jupiter and all of the stars we see and all of the ones we don’t. That’s all regular matter, just five percent. A quarter is “dark matter,” which is invisible and detectable only by gravitational pull, and a whopping 70 percent of the universe is made up of “dark energy,” described as a cosmic antigravity, as yet totally unknowable. It’s basically all mystery out there - all of it, with just this one sliver of knowable, livable, finite light and life. And did I mention the effects were really cool? After seeing something like that it’s hard to stay mad at anyone, even yourself.”

“Positive energy brings good feelings, and dark energy often means harm. But the destruction in dark energy is also a subtle aspect of construction, like how even forest fires have their benefits. Sometimes enemies are our best teachers, people can learn from their mistakes, destruction sometimes means rebirth.”

“As a kid, I imagined lots of different scenarios for my life. I would be an astronaut. Maybe a cartoonist. A famous explorer or rock star. Never once did I see myself standing under the window of a house belonging to some druggie named Carbine, waiting for his yard gnome to steal his stash so I could get a cab back to a cheap motel where my friend, a neurotic, death-obsessed dwarf, was waiting for me so we could get on the road to an undefined place and a mysterious Dr. X, who would cure me of mad cow disease and stop a band of dark energy from destroying the universe.”
