@peter jeffrey cobb,
I do not even try to understand space time, why bother? Seriously, all of the multiple PhD's who say that they do, all disagree, and the ones who seem successful, all write a book and try to capitalize on the ignorance of the public. Stephen Hawking is a prime example of this as he has now recanted his black hole nonsense. Pete, you do not understand, no one understands space time, Einstein himself recanted the static universe theory. While it is fine to be interested in universal cosmology, believing that you are going to solve anything, is irrational.....
