Olbers' Paradox in the 'Quantum Universe' ?
I guess that you know what I am doing by now and that is to help you think outside
the box. Not that I have ever believed in boxes. So if you look at Wiki this is what you get.
Well in fact most of Quantum Science is a Paradox, but here goes as a working doc. What I do is to look for as much information as possible and then try a best fit.
Where has all the light gone?
Not enough microwaves.
If there was the Universe would be a lot hotter heating up those few hydrogen atoms per cubic meter.
You cannot destroy energy without an equal and opposite result.
So the Universe should be hot and bright.
Of course it might not be finite and leak into the medium surrounding it. See Birth of the Universe on this site.
Add up all the energy from the Stars for all time and that is a lot. Where has it gone. Any ideas?
A couple more...
Light travelling from different sources creates interference and photons are eliminated to produce?
Energy cannot just disappear...what is produced at the interference point?
We see that with two sets of ripples on a pond.
What is there supposed to be a lot of in the Universe?
Dark Matter!
So to the mathematicians out there, a question. Is the weight of dark matter in the Universe equal to all of the light and other vanished radiation in terms of E+MC2 since the beginning?
Is the expansion of the Universe due to this conversion?
Just question everything and you will be better for it.
