Imagine an object, such as a car. The car is constructed of many different individual moving components, but as a whole we consider the “car” as a single object, just like we consider the individual components of the car single objects. Of course, those components are also made of smaller components which could be considered objects themselves. This concept of objects being a composition of components is present in every physical process known to man. We consider an atom an object with components of a nucleus and surrounding electrons. We consider a nucleus an object with components of protons and neutrons. This “level” system of objects being made of components is true of the very small, to the very large. So small that it is beyond our scope to measure and observe, and so large that it’s beyond our scope to measure and observe. The object the universe is comprised of many components such as galaxies. Galaxies are comprised of many components such as solar systems. Solar systems are comprised of many components such as planets, etc, etc.
The second law of thermodynamics states that in a closed system entropy increases with time. In other words, mass gets less dense over time because mass is turned into energy, and the potential energy of the system decreases with time. The process of entropy increasing over time is the reason why we are able to do work in the first place. Every physical process known to man evolves through entropy increasing. You can not turn mass into energy unless mass increases in volume and entropy increases.
Let’s look at our sun as an example. The only way the sun can turn mass to energy is by getting less dense. How does it get less dense? It gets less dense by expanding the volume of the mass as entropy increases. Another way to say it is that mass evolves to space. Mass gets less dense over time.
So let’s take our solar system as an example of mass getting less dense over time. The planets are components of the object the solar system. The planets are getting further away from the core of the solar system, which we refer to as the object, the sun. Just like an atom has a nucleus as a core object, so too does the object the solar system have a core object the sun (the nucleus). In other words, the object the solar system is the sun expanding. What we refer to as the sun is the nucleus of the object the solar system. So the solar system as an object is getting less dense by the planets getting further away from the core over time. Another way to say it is that in the past, the solar system was much more dense, so dense in fact that the planets and sun components of the solar system used to be one and the same, a singularity. The singularity expanded, and continues to expand over time. The earth (and all the planets) came from the sun!
Just like the solar system is an expanding object, which is a component of our galaxy, so too is the galaxy expanding in the exact same manner, due to the exact same process, the increasing of entropy according to the second law. All the components that make up a galaxy came from the nucleus of the galaxy, which we refer to as a black hole. A galaxy as an object is in fact an expanded black hole, with what we refer to as a black hole being the nucleus of the galaxy.
The same concept applies to the universe. The universe is an object comprised of many components. The universe at one time was a singularity. The singularity expanded and continues to expand today. The components get further away from each other over time.
The universe resides in an infinite volume of surrounding space. The universe is a component of an even greater object, along with the other components that make up that greater object. The universe components orbit the nucleus of the greater object, like planets orbit our solar system’s nucleus, the sun. In the same context, the universe is to its core as the planets are to our sun.
Multiple universes being components of a larger object is no different than the planets of our solar system orbiting our sun, at the same time orbiting the black hole of our galaxy, just on a much larger scale.
Our universe was a singularity that came from its core like the earth came from the sun, and continues to get further away from its core. It happens at every level, small and large. Mass evolves to space!
