New Research Challenges the Concept of a Cyclic Universe, Reinforcing the Big Bang Singularity

by

Berkeley, California — A recent mathematical analysis suggests that a cyclical model of the universe, where it expands and contracts in a repetitive cycle, is unlikely. This challenges the notion of a “big bounce” as the alternative origin of the universe to the widely accepted “big bang.” Researchers contend that the fundamental laws of physics may prevent such a repeating cosmos. In a traditional big bang scenario, the universe is believed to have erupted from an incredibly dense singularity, leading to continuous expansion. Conversely, proponents of the big bounce theory argue that the universe could … Read more

Behind the Scenes of ‘The Jury: Murder Trial’ – Unveiling the Journey from Concept to Primetime on Channel 4

The inception of this innovative format began with Ed Kellie, the creator of the show, who wanted to delve into the intricacies of the jury system. The concept underwent extensive development before being pitched to network executives. It was … Read more
