RE: Understanding the Universe

Note that the wording 'Planck Epoch' has been done in honour to Max Planck and not by max Planck himself. The reason is that Max Planck proposed the set of units (known today as the Planck units) that defines the Planck epoch (without any reference to cosmology). There is a tiny difference in there.

By the way, everything you say is right, according to standard cosmology. This is a strong assumption and you have alternatives :)

These two models are quantum mechanics which deals in subatomic states; 1 and 0 and the superposition of both states and Einstein's brainchild: the general relativity which looks at the distortion in space-time perceived as gravity, it looks at the effect of acceleration and gravity.

1 and 0? Quantum mechanics is more than 1s and 0s...

Sort:  

I just want to keep it simple. I hope the simplicity did not throw off vital points. You are right about the Planck Epoch; the name was, as you rightly pointed out, made in his honour.

Well, in fact, saying that does not mean anything. Or I don't see what you mean... Sorry :D

Oh no. You got me on that one :)
Well, it means something.

Yes but what?

Ok, it is that branch of physics that tries to make sense of the action of subatomic particles right on the nanoscopic levels. It is the red pill on the Matrix for people who want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes :)

I meant that quantum mechanics is not connected to 0 and 1. Quantum computing comes from there, but this is not the opposite.

You are absolutely right

Well, in fact, saying that quantum mechanics does not mean anything. I actually don't see what you mean... Sorry :D
