What do you think of my universe theory?

Question

I always think of the atom and then look at the solar system and wonder if the solar system is really just a bid atom, if that were the case earth could be be part of some giants nose hair or just anything what are your theories

Answer 1

I was with you all the way up to the giant's nose hair.
Let's all hope he doesn't sneeze.

Answer 2

Your logic is flawed. Electrons do orbit atoms, and the solar system is sorta like an atom, but it is not exactly orbiting like planets. So it isnt really an atom. Also, where do asteroids form from nothingness come from? How is it rapiddly increasing decity each year? and how does everything have some force of gravity with eachother?

For these reasons and more, I still stick with the big bang theory. However, I do see your logic. You at least more logical than some people i see on the site...

Answer 3

The solar system only remotely resembles an atom. Most people think of an atom as having electrons in nice neat orbits around the atom like planets around the sun. But this isn't the case. Atoms don't orbit in elliptical well defined paths like planets, rather, they exists in probability 'clouds' - areas of highest probability of finding them. At any instant they can be found anywhere in that cloud. The cloud has no real boundaries, only areas where the electron is most likely to be found, but it's not impossible for the electron at some instant to be found inside the nucleus.

Answer 4

I've sometimes had similar ideas myself - so you're not alone. Although I must say I had never thought of the analogy of a giant's nose hair !
But what does Ordinary Frog mean by the statement, "There is nothing smaller than an atom" ? Hasn't he (she?) heard that atoms are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons ? And even protons and neutrons are now believed to be made up of yet smaller particles - quarks.

Answer 5

It is an interesting theory, though sadly not original to you. I've heard of it before.
What I would say is that you shouldn't look at the atom and compare it visually with the universe, since the universe is in fact not at all what you imagine.
The universe is really in the shape of a ring doughnut, in as much as if you travel across it, you will find yourself back where you started.
But certainly, I don't have evidence to refute a claim such as yours, and it certainly is an exciting one.

Answer 6

Sure, we need to explore all possibilities. But why stop there(solar system). Why not the whole of our Universe is a quantum size(subatomic) in someone elses universe and so on in a never ending chain. Or maybe they all exist in parallel. We have no way of knowing at present. Your guess is as good as anyones. keep thinking and think bigger

Answer 7

Sorry But I think the theory of the atom does not exist because atoms already exist at a smaller size. There is nothing smaller than an atom. so there can't be atoms inside atoms.

Answer 8

I like it, I think we live ion a giant tyre.
Your theory ha been thought of thousands of years before with the Hindu religion

Answer 9

Well i think and wonder, but then i get frustrated as i don't know the real answers to how it all started - and i so want to, to know where all the material comes from ?and why the whole universe is just so vast ?, i just get frustrated at seeing so much but knowing so little about it !!. But at the end of the day it still holds me in Awe !!.

Answer 10

your unfortunatly a tad behind the times, that theory has been going around for years and years and years. Have you not seen the old beer commercial or the end of men in black

Answer 11

That reminds me of a poem by Augustus De Morgan:

Great fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em,
And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum.
And the great fleas themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on;
While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on.

This sums up your thoughts perfectly!
