This is the first time in history they detect what they believe are the theorized Gravitational Waves that are proof of faster
than the speed of light expansion of the universe.
Not exact matches
While no object can move through space faster
than the
speed of light, the
speed limit does not apply to the actual
expansion of space itself.
This latest evidence for «inflation» supports the
expansion of space in the early universe at a rate much faster
than the
speed of light.
And why would popping out
of nothing, or
expansion of space faster
than the
speed of light, imply a supreme being?
Expansion of space time faster
than the
speed of light is not supernatural at all, in fact, the current mathematical models predict it (i.e. it is completely natural).
Confirmation
of the greater
than light speed expansion of our universe means that there definitely is a part
of the universe that we can't see, even in principle (that was hypothesis before).
If time travel can only be achieved with travel faster
than the
speed of light, then during this faster -
than - the -
speed -
of -
light expansion the growing Universe was experiencing, couldn't the entire universe at that time have been going backwards, or possibly forwards, in time itself?
This discovery is superior to the current redshift — hence the Doppler Effect — approach
of detecting the
expansion of the universe, since some scientists speculate that other unknown reasons can cause the redshift while Gravitational Waves are unique to the Inflation
of the Universe —
expansion at faster
than the
speed of light at the beginning.
Cosmologists think the just - born universe — a hot, dense soup
of matter and energy — went through a burst
of expansion faster
than the
speed of light.
Assimilating your neighbors is a faster
expansion strategy
than physical settlement, which inevitably progresses slower
than the
speed of light.
According to Einstein, nothing travels faster
than light, but space itself has no such
speed limit; immediately after the Big Bang, the runaway
expansion of the universe apparently left
light lagging way behind.
