THIS is the guy I was talking about. He uses quantum mechanics to explain retraction of the universe at a certain threshold (but never gives the formula for the threshold). I find it highly unlikely that this would be the answer simply because of the fact that we have Dark matter and Energy. Dark Energy is quickly expanding the universe, and it is unlikely we can ever reach critical mass, therefore debunking this hypothesis.

Dark matter and energy still (if they are ANYTHING like real energy and mass) should warp spacetime in a negative divergent fashion. Sorry, that was too nerdy, that should read: gravity, due to (dark)matter/energy, should be attractive, thus a contraction is not contradicted by darkmatter but expedited! Dark energy is also not responsible for the expansion of the universe... my cosmology is getting a bit out of date (not billions of years out of date, maybe back to 2008 or so hehehehe). It could be due to dark matter/energy effects but we know so little about them now it is difficult to pin down.

Indeed! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Nothing like getting hit in the groin to humble a physicist talking like a know-it-all.

ITT: Chtulu posts youtube videos about concepts he can't understand, much less spell properly.

Ehh, cut him a break, you know that whole Eintstein quote about imagination>knowledge... cliche but true.

Although I myself am quite a spelling nazi, Especially on a forum with spelchek.
