The Solar System, Age and Simulations Well I see some reports on how the solar system was formed have some surprises in them. Of course, you will have to have ultimate faith in the computer simulation which was used to provide this info, but computer simulations are not without their flaws. Certain information is programmed into them as gospel and from this information the simulation produces the final simulation or report. It is a shame these simulations, or computer programs are all controlled by the information that is programmed into them to some extent. The latest simulation shows our solar system was a very chaotic place when it was formed. You wouldn't have wanted to have been around then. It also shows the Earth and Moon were subjected to a severe asteroid bombardment that may have set life back on our world. What if this was true and intelligent life already existed on Earth at the time. It could have been wiped out. Maybe our life form is not the first intelligent life on Earth. As the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy suggests, we are only the third most intelligent life form on Earth, the mice being the first and the Dolphins being the second. Seriously, it has been suggested there are more advanced forms of life living inside the Earth. Could this be true and is there a chance maybe there was a fierce asteroid shower and it drove the intelligent creatures to take refuge inside the Earth? What if they decided to stay there and developed advanced societies and cultures and are still there and they are more advanced than us? Could this be the reason many UFOs have been seen going into volcanoes or into the water, could they have been returning home? The report on the simulation goes on to say the solar system is only 4.6 billion years old. In truth if this is correct, it shoots down the theory of intelligent life moving underground because it would have had hardly any time to form and the Earth would have been most inhospitable at its tender age. But could this be wrong, could the Earth be older than the computer program supposes? The oldest rocks found so far seem to be about 3.8 billion years old, but the age of the Earth has been revised many times. The simulation that was used probably had the age of the solar system programmed into it already. Would the results have been the same if the solar system turned out to be older or even younger? Science will argue the age of the Earth is pretty accurate because of the science of geochronology. In simple terms, the radioactivity of certain elements is used as an indicator of age. But how do we know something didn't happen in our past to affect that radioactivity. Could these ores have absorbed more radioactivity in some way? There is still an awful lot we don't know about the universe. There are those who believe magnetism in the Earth is the key to determining the age of the Earth. Again, I have to wonder if this could have been altered over the course of billions of years by events we have no knowledge of? Well, be this as it may, the most accepted age for the Earth is 4.6 billion years. But there is a second figure some people agree on and that is 5 billion years. But do these figures agree with the Big Bang Theory? The Big Bang Theory states there was this huge mass and nothing else and it exerted so much pressure on its core it exploded, and in so doing, spread the material for the creation of stars and planets into space. Some scientists say this happened as little as 10 billion years ago. Would this have given us enough time for the Earth and planets to form? After all, the bang took place somewhere else in space and nothing can travel faster than the speed of light according to Einstein. So how long did it take the material that formed the solar system to reach us? After it reached us how long did it take for this material to turn into the Sun and planets? Why can we see galaxies that are 13 billion light years away, when according to the Big Bang theory, this is too far to be possible. Why didn’t the explosion called the Big Bang spread the material out in every direction on not on a plane as it did? Here is the answer, but I don't buy it. The Big Bang was not an explosion in space, it was an explosion of space and took place everywhere at once. There is nothing like a good mystical scientific explanation to muddy the waters. This explanation smacks of different dimensions, worm holes and time travel. Is this theory correct? I am almost willing to bet it too will be proven wrong somewhere in the future as will be the theory that the faster something is traveling the more it shifts to the red in the light spectrum. While I believe this is true in many if not most cases, I don't believe it is true in every case. There have been a few isolated cases where the red shift didn't seem to coincide with the speed. So, are the latest simulations that predict the formation of our solar system and its age correct? Maybe, maybe not, or maybe partially correct. Take your choice. I think they are partially correct and we will get better simulations in the future when more powerful computers come on line with more advanced software. What about the assessment time and space exploded when the universe was created? If space didn’t exist before the Big Bang, what was there? Can any of us even imagine if space didn’t exist what its replacement would have been? I know this idea gives me brain freeze and I bet there may not be anyone who can explain the answer in a way to convince me they are right. The theory might also indicate time didn’t exist before the explosion and that is another concept I have a problem imagining. It seems to me it would also indicate there would be no dimensions. Does this mean those who talk about the Big Bang think the so called multiverse was created at the same time? It seems these answers are beyond human comprehension at the moment.
