15ulane , my post here vanished and I did not get even notification of replies , I have on-going problems here , even the Formatting of the text I type ( but NO one else has those problems ... I know , my UPN disqualifies the theory of Relativity , a darling of certain people ) ... but you can look at the original located at the very end of this web site :Recipe for a Nation | Future shocking , an universal survival manual for any intelligent specie , in any galaxy , and it starts with a peaceful Revolution … the ultimate political Platform that you want in your life time ! The theory is called Unifying Property of Nature ( UPN ) , you can also read it here in this forum where is also best to comment on it .I mentioned it because it provides the answer to the question :Is the Universe an open or closed system ?Accepting that water can cut steel and super fluids observed in laboratory produce sponteneous vortices , we can confidently procede with the knowladge that appearances are deceiving and different states of a substance produce different properties .Hence , arriving to the conclusion that our Universe is actually a Super Fluid and we are it spinning at the speed of light in tiny vortices is acceptable to our sense , slowly but surely .The answer to the closed/open system question is as simple as stating that no absolute vacuum ( the absence of everithing , i.e. nothingness ) can be produced anywhere . There is no 'hole' that can be in the 'fabric' of the Universe , and this is not a Postulate but a fact since Nothigness ... doesn't exist ( as the name implies ) . It is just an abstract notion that we can use to judge and analyse it's opposite , the Somethigness , what ever that may be .By not being able to leave 'holes' in the Universe it sets the system with no end , eternal in time , with no begining and no end possible . I am saying 'possible' for the same simple reason that it is im-possible to create/exit Nothigness , hence it is impossible to 'stop; or 'end' the Universe .The best description of the Universe therefore could be " it is since forever and as big as it can be " , in other words there are no limits both in time and available space , no begining and no end . Ya , I get dizzy just trying to imagine that .The consequences are delicious : - all phenomenon can be just waves , vortices and harmonics - all possible combinations of micro-vortices ( see the UPN ) arrangaments per square light year of space are repeated as long as intelligent life doesn't interfeer . I know , sounds like fiction but only to those that do not understand the scientific proverb " eternity is enough time that a monkey typing at random will eventually write all Shakespareean plays " .... Dig that and suddenly the "repeat" theme jumps out solid as a rock ( the monkey has enough time to go through ALL possible combinations of letters and spaces including the unique one which spells Shakespare's writings , as an exampe ) .- time/space can not be stretched/shrunk , the SuperFluid ( see UPN ) is ... uncompressible . This means that if we know how to use this property we can send message instanteniously through the Endless Universe , as fiction as it may sound , yet if it is uncompressible distances do not make ANY difference ...... MESSAGE to MODERATORS : by now I got the message , I am not wanted here , continiously I have problems logging in , my posts get deleted , can't format what I type ... ,,, BUT do you people Understand that is NOTHING you can do about the UPN , YOU CAN NOT CHANGE NATURE ! .......... Do you realize also that Google saves all this and later on some of you will be taken to task when the judges will be judged ? .......what are you gona say , that you didn't Understand the UPN when a ten year old could ?
