The Universe As Magic Roundabout: Part II
By Rusty Rockets
Last week, we introduced a cyclic model of the universe proposed by physicist
Peter Lynds, who says that his model not only solves Kant's infinite versus
finite universe paradox, but also resolves the mystery of the origin of the
universe itself. Lynds' model predicts that the universe will contract toward a
big crunch, but instead of a singularity ever being reached, events will reverse
and the universe will again expand from a subsequent big bang. Unlike previous
cyclic models, Lynds' does not breach any physical laws, as his model has
entropy continuing to increase as a result of events being reversed.
If he's correct, then we live in a universe where there is no past or present,
and one that is deterministic, even if it is impossible for us to recognize it
as such. But there are a number of pressing questions in regard to Lynds' model.
How does it fit in with current research that claims that the universe will
expand forever? Does Lynds' model imply that the universe somehow "knows" to
play events over and over? And will we all have to relive our lives backward?
