Scientific understanding is always subject to change. Not long after Einstein proposed the cosmological constant, scientists observed that the universe was much bigger than previously thought; the astronomer Edwin Hubble concluded it was, in fact, expanding. Faced with this knowledge, Einstein renounced his own idea, calling it his "biggest blunder." Though Hubble's new findings were widely accepted, scientists now faced new questions: If the universe was so big and continuously expanding, what was driving expansion? And shouldn't the force of gravity at least be slowing it down?

  • Youtube needs more subject matter posted like this, instead of all the runofthemillgarbage.

  • issac newton is furious right now with that statement

  • The so called big bang, resulting from the explosion of an infinitely small extremely dense amount of matter, makes no sense to me.

    I believe that there may have been many bangs; maybe millions, billions, or trillions; who knows?. Many bangs were much bigger than others.

    Anyway, most of them were just big, very big intergalactic shocks that, when matter converged violently, the energy released was so big that pushed matter back again. with extreme violence; other forces did the rest...

  • Either way Einstein the Legend can't be wrong because that would make everyone else look like idiots for not questioning him, this video is a bit historically inaccurate and implies he came up with the Big Bang theory also, and he knew how it really worked all along someone just twisted his arm, the effect is "general relativity" held our understanding of gravity back 100 years.

  • I believe that In 1854, Hermann von Helmholtz first proposed that gravity was causing the energy which emanates from the Sun. The formula for thermodynamics also shows that the effect of gravity(pressure) is creating new energy in the form of heat in the core of stars. This explains all the observations, even the exponentially inflating universe and why the inflation is occurring mostly between places concentrated with mass. The new energy being created radiates & causes this repulsive action.

  • This is a very interesting set of videos!!!

  • subscribe to my channel, message me, than i will sub back. thanks!!!

  • @sirjohncool That would mean that there's something outside of space-time that affects space-time. Also this might mean there are boundaries to in which the universe can expand.

    Suffice to say, it would raise a few extra, quite interesting, questions :P

  • What if the universe is speeding up in it's outward expansion. Not because of some inner energy propelling it. But an outside force is attracting our universe to expand. And the closer we get to this force, the greater the attraction?

  • @sidewaysfcs0718

    Or gravity is just the "ripple effect" of gravitons rising up into the 5th dimension.

  • Thats nice, but quess what?

    Space dont expanding at all.

    I can proof that science way.

    Check it out my video

    Hello Jim Carrey, i know how universe really working.
