Episode 241 - Cosmic Conundrums
from Kevin McFarlane's podcast · host Kevin McFarlane
The field of theoretical cosmology faces persistent, fundamental inconsistencies that demonstrate the inadequacy of the Standard Model (SM) and the necessary incompatibility between General Relativity (GR) and Quantum Mechanics (QM) under extreme conditions. These deficiencies, which include the inability to explain the nature of dark matter and dark energy, the origin of fundamental parameters, and the mechanism for resolving spacetime singularities, necessitate theoretical developments that venture beyond the known four dimensions of spacetime.
