Standard Model: The universe is a balloon. Galaxies are dots moving apart. Passive. Abduction Model: The universe is a crime scene. The "expansion" is the getaway vehicle.
Scratch Note: Need to refine the definition of the perpetrator. Is it Gravity? Or is it the Higgs Field? Gravity is attractive (trying to pull it back), while Dark Energy is the acceleration of the getaway. Perhaps Dark Energy is the actual kidnapper.
A standard backspin is momentary. The Gray-Skip, however, produces a backward loop that lasts exactly 4.33 seconds and then spontaneously reverses polarity. Spectral analysis of a Gray-Skip has revealed fractal patterns matching the cosmic microwave background radiation. cosmic abduction final scratch work
Standard IBE says we choose the hypothesis that best explains the data. Cosmic Abduction says the hypothesis causes the data.
Table of Comparisons:
| Feature | Standard IBE | Cosmic Abduction | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Role of Observer | Passive witness | Accomplice / Detective | | Fine Tuning | Lucky accident | Fingerprint of the designer/criminal | | Dark Matter | Missing mass | The loot (hidden matter stolen from the vacuum) | | Dark Energy | Repulsive force | The engine of the getaway vehicle |
Argumentation Scratch: We need to argue that "Abduction" explains the cosmological constants better than the Anthropic Principle. Standard Model: The universe is a balloon
How does a cosmic abduction feel to a human on the ground?
