How is space created?
Another good question.
Can space be created in a lab?

It exists as particles and particles are either being compressed or expanded depending on the state of matter.

The universe began at infinite temperature, that was the first creation of mass/energy.
But there was a second, the inflationary epoch. How can I put this? Consider the quantum vacuum at the current time. There are particles popping into and out space all the time, disappearing within a time given by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. When space is expanding fast enough, these particles pop into existence but space has moved on before they have a way to pop back out of existence, so they stay around. This creates mass-energy.
Also, we can even say there was a third, the vacuum energy proportional to the cosmological constant that gives us dark energy.
Tau.Neutrino said:

The answer to the second of these is “no”.
The answer to the first of these is the same as that given above for the creation of mass-energy. Some space was created from the original infinite temperature, most (on a logarithmic scale) created during the inflationary epoch. And some created by the cosmological constant.
I haven’t yet seen a simple introduction to slow roll inflation. The following link (one page with 7 mathematical equations) is what Google considers a simple introduction to slow roll inflation. https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Liddle/Liddle5_2.html

This article is long, but good and relatively easy to read. It uses graphs and animations to explain where space and matter came from, rather than equations.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bang
The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model for the universe from the earliest known periods through its subsequent large-scale evolution. The model describes how the universe expanded from a very high-density and high-temperature state, and offers a comprehensive explanation for a broad range of phenomena, including the abundance of light elements, the cosmic microwave background (CMB), large scale structure and Hubble’s law. If the known laws of physics are extrapolated to the highest density regime, the result is a singularity which is typically associated with the Big Bang. Physicists are undecided whether this means the universe began from a singularity, or that current knowledge is insufficient to describe the universe at that time. Detailed measurements of the expansion rate of the universe place the Big Bang at around 13.8 billion years ago, which is thus considered the age of the universe. After the initial expansion, the universe cooled sufficiently to allow the formation of subatomic particles, and later simple atoms. Giant clouds of these primordial elements later coalesced through gravity in halos of dark matter, eventually forming the stars and galaxies visible today.
Since the Big Bank hasn’t work been done and thus using/destroying energy?

it is the overall mass/energy of the universe that can’t be changed.
some things, of nature, are answers, they don’t necessarily demand or require a question.
it’s a strange idea perhaps, that it doesn’t yield to the efforts of minds.

Take the yoyo theory, the BB happens and then as the matter is scattered it cools ans slows and gravity brings it all back to a singularity that then goes bang again and so on ad infinitum, that would mean perpetual motion if no energy is destroyed each time.

we surmise that that isn’t the fate of this universe because of dark energy. it will expand forever at an accelerating rate.

perpetual motion is doable as long as no work is being done.

I’m not sure what you mean by an anomaly, but the question seems reasonable to me. We might ask:
If energy exists, why do we say it cannot be created?
I don’t think the destroyed part has anything to do with it.
There is also a theory around that dark matter possesses a reverse gravity.
The current Standard Model is only 15 years old and is a work in progress as is PWM’s independent Think Tank.

Did the the energy created by the singularity already exist, or was it created by the singularity itself?
If the energy already existed then perhaps the singularity was in another state we are un aware of?
If the singularity can create energy perhaps it can destroy it as well ?

If there are many different states of matter, could there be many different states of the universe, in that it is evolving from its early state is is moving onto another state in the future?
Changing its state over time.
Can any observed behaviors of the universe from a distance correlate to behaviors close up?
If there are multiverses do singularities occur in each one?
Tau.Neutrino said:
If there are multiverses do singularities occur in each one?
Ah, now we’re getting down to good questions.
First of all, forget topological and quantum multiverses here, we’re talking either:
The answer for all four is yes
… but …
in some if not all of these the singularity doesn’t have to have zero space dimensions, any number of space dimensions other than three will suffice, be it 0, 2, 9 or 10.
The “singularity” in each case is uniformity, constancy of properties such as potential energy, temperature, etc across the whole of the “singularity”. Or to put in another way, properties after the singularity are completely disconnected from those before the singularity.

Q1. Yes or no. Our present universe is metastable, the potential energy of the quantum vacuum is available if any part of it was to go unstable and create a new universe. So in that case the energy existed originally. On the other hand, if time didn’t exist before the big bang then the energy could only have been created by the singularity itself.
Q2. Define “unaware”.
Q3. Yes, sort of. In a black hole, though one has to be really really careful about what constitutes “destroying” in this case.

We don’t know.
We also don’t know if there was a singularity (imo it’s very unlikely).
But for “singularity” I’m happy to substitute “whatever existed at the start of the observable universe”.

Bloody MOND. Yes. From 1982.
In its current incarnation called the f ( r ) theory of gravity. From 2004.
This has been disproved on multiple occasions in multiple contexts, but then every other theory of dark matter permitted by Occam’s Razor has also been disproved.

I would like to see a completely revamped version free of, heaven, hell, imaginary spaces, contradictions and observations in error.

Should the bible be rewritten in today’s language?
I think it’s been re-written enough…
Every now and then I toy with the idea of rewriting it from an atheist (or agnostic) perspective.
Completely removing the word “God” for instance and replacing it with “Elohim”, “El Shaddai” and “JHWY” as appropriate.

Michael V said:What about Today’s English Version? (Etc)
A really slimmed down version.
A bible free of any unnecessary text.
A bible free of contradictions or any hypocritical ideologies.
A bible that deals with reality and makes no reference to imaginary spaces, monsters, heaven, hell, souls being tortured etc
fuck off polluting every thread with you religious tripe.
Yeah, modern language. That should be in the Bible’s introduction.

Tau.Neutrino said:The King James version was completed in 1611 was 507 years ago
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_James_Version
The King James Version (KJV), also known as the King James Bible (KJB) or simply the Authorized Version (AV), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England, begun in 1604 and completed in 1611
A lot has changed over 507 years.
Time for a new version to reflect modern law, human rights and modern ideologies ?
Oh Jeeze, walked into that one. It wouldn’t be a translation of the original then would it, you would be talking about something else. Anti religious nutters are as boring and single minded as God nutters.
Are they really? I’ve never met one. I grew up with an atheist mother, agnostic father, C of E older sister, Baptist younger older sister, non-sectarian Christian first wife, and Church of Christ second wife. I’ve had periods of being christian, agnostic and atheist. I have a soft spot for the Tao, Jain and Buddhism.

The Rev Dodgson said:I’m not sure what you mean by an anomaly, but the question seems reasonable to me. We might ask:
If energy exists, why do we say it cannot be created?
I don’t think the destroyed part has anything to do with it.
Did the the energy created by the singularity already exist, or was it created by the singularity itself?
If the energy already existed then perhaps the singularity was in another state we are un aware of?
If the singularity can create energy perhaps it can destroy it as well ?
We don’t know.
We also don’t know if there was a singularity (imo it’s very unlikely).
But for “singularity” I’m happy to substitute “whatever existed at the start of the observable universe”.
The idea is that during the inflation phase, energy density (instead of quantity) is conserved, meaning that the overall of energy massively inflates as the universe rapidly expands.
I don’t know the current status of this idea and how it fits with today’s physics.

I probably should have known about that.
It does seem to me that speculations that are not even consistent with accepted physics are treated (at least at the pop-sci level) as indisputable facts.

In inflationary cosmology the net energy content of the universe is nil, since energy is balanced by gravity which counts as “negative energy”.
(There’s plenty of energy available locally at various times as the universe goes about its business, but the net figure remains zero.)
>Astrophysicists Alexei Filippenko at the University of California, Berkeley and Jay Pasachoff at Williams College explain gravity’s negative energy by way of example in their essay, “A Universe From Nothing”: “If you drop a ball from rest (defined to be a state of zero energy), it gains energy of motion (kinetic energy) as it falls. But this gain is exactly balanced by a larger negative gravitational energy as it comes closer to Earth’s center, so the sum of the two energies remains zero.”
In other words, the ball’s positive energy increases, but at the same time, negative energy is added to the Earth’s gravitational field. What was a zero-energy ball at rest in space later becomes a zero-energy ball that is falling through space.
The universe as a whole can be compared to this ball. Initially, before the big bang, the universe-ball was at rest. Now, after the big bang, it is falling: light and matter exist, and they are moving. And yet, because of the negative energy built into the gravity field created by these particles, the total energy of the universe remains zero.<

Interesting.
If the universe expands forever and eventually heat death occurs and it’s a cold empty universe could that be proof God doesn’t exist as that’s a poor ending to it all.

Well it would certainly be proof of “mysterious ways”.
But since there would be no-one around to observe this poor ending, it’s not very useful as a proof.
The Rev Dodgson said:
If energy cannot be created or destroyed, then how does it exist?
Energy conservation is a bit of furphy. Energy is only conserved under very specific conditions, that is in flat and static spacetime geometries, and since our universe is at the very least dynamic, it’s not entirely useful to even talk about the total energy of the universe.
The best thing we can do it look at the energy density over a fixed volume and see how it changes with a changing spacetime.
This of course doesn’t answer you initial question, the best we can do there is to say that energy is a property of the universe, and always has been.

Hmmm, yes.. strokes beard.. that all sounds very neat.
What is wrong with this statement then, “the universe CAN”T have a net zero mass, because by E =mc^2, if m=0, E =0, which means the universe has no rest energy and so the universe can’t exist and zero net rest energy means no particle at all! and universe without particles or matters is simply not an universe!”?
d-s may have answered my quibble.
I should point out that when inflationary cosmologists talk about a “universe from nothing” it’s just a figure of speech. They’re not talking about literally nothing, they’re talking about the inflation of initially tiny quantum fluctuations, which are not nothing :)
