well, in theory, the faster an object moves, the slower time is for that object. Actually they tested it, by getting 2 VERY VERY accurate synchonized atomic clocks, and put one on a super-sonic plane. After it came down, the one on the plane was a little bit slower than the one that was on the ground.

Going by that then, if we went fast enough we could go back in time.

The theory I found interesting is that the universe is like a Giant wave that oscilates over space and time. Therefore, being a loop, it has no begining or end, but does have a middle. Despite having a neither a beginning nor an end it still exists.

I understand what you are saying but how is it possible that there was no begginning. The stuff in the universe has been here....forever?

There may be things we will never be able to figure out. There maybe things we were not ment to figure out. Hell, there maybe things we just shouldn't figure out.

Technically, that's not true. Before the big bang, matter, space, and even time did not exist. It was just in a limbo-like state, where nothing existed.

Which is my question. How was all the matter we know of formed from nothing?

yeah nothing makes sense about the beginning...sure they can make all those fancy ass -blam!- equations but they don't prove -blam!-...me and nightpotatoe made the world

My theory is that energy formed the matter. E=MC^2. Which means that the total amount of energy and mass does not change. Just like in nuclear reactions, a very very small amount of matter is destroyed, and converted into pure energy. The opposite could have happened with the big bang. Energy could have been destroyed, and converted into matter. Where the energy came from, I have no idea.

Does that mean one day we could run out of matter?

In theory, but not all matter can undergo nuclear reactions. Plus, it is an extremely miniscule amount of matter converted to energy. less than 0.0001 % in fusion reactions, and even less in fission reactions. Anti-matter reactions are the only 100% matter to energy reactions. But that doesn't even exist anymore, it has to be made in labs.

P.S. to all of you -blam!-ing in this thread, shut the -blam!- up, and find another forum to spew your spam.
