EINSTEIN'S RATIONAL UNIVERSE: The Cosmic Constant EINSTEIN'S BEST IDEA

Einstein's idea of a "Cosmic Constant" was scorned for many decades. But lately, scientific attitudes have changed. Physicists now universally recognize the need for a vast amount of invisible energy to keep the universe together and to explain other phenomena--such as why the edges of galaxies speed far too fast to stay attached, but do so anyway. The current theories of elemental particles now suggest a vast range of phantom-particles—these phantom particles blink in and out of existence in space, from other dimensions perhaps, to facilitate the normal changes and interactions between elemental particles. Finally, a Higgs boson has been validated, a semi-phantom particle that provides other atomic particles something important, mass. Wow! If classic science can accept such impossibly strange additions to an already contradictory quantum universe, Einstein’s “cosmic constant” seems strangely possible! In fact, let us assume it exists! What is it? How does it shape the universe it controls? And how does it unravel the contradictions in the standard theory?Read more
