no, if the force of gravity pulling us together was greater than the initial explosion we would see us slowing down imediatly. since this is not the case, the initial explosion is greater than that of gravity. so unless another factor will come into play other than the force of gravity we will never stop accellerating



edit, this is also why this forum should be in pard. notice how quickly science and religion intertwined?

I was just going to say that.
The deceleration might not yet have started.

(LOL at word play. DE CELL (the removal of cells)
if the universe DE CELLerates, then we'd have a CELL liquidation on our hands






at least it started as a science topic

uhm...
lingual problems are occuring xD
eehrm
a small black hole emits too much matter to last a higher amount of time
the tidal force near a 'large' black hole would be that high, that, for example your stomach is being accelerated more than your back, they wont stick together ^^

i like the membrane theory, seems more logical.

What's the membrane theory?

ofc you completely understood it...





a modification of the superstring theory

youtube it, theres full documentary

reach the center of what?
how will u die?

True, but now we've entered an entirely different subject area. Now we're more in the realm of dark matter theories.

But a possible explanation to the constant expansion is that we do now know if we would be sucked into the same, central point. If our expansion would only be halted once a black hole was big enough to affect the expansion, we reach a plausible answer. Just because we exploded form a central point does not mean we will have to return to that same point.

Religion is intertwining, I don't think it belongs here... way to easy for people to discredit science in the name of religion and vice versa. This forum should be purely scientific.

the center of the black hole, read post #33

btw some1 answer my question
'what irritates me is, that if all the matter once was located in a point or even a very small radius it must have been inside the event horizon of that amout of matter. regarding the general theory of relativity, an infinite amount of time has to pass before a remarkable process occurs there, such as expansion.
am i wrong?'
