Re: Big Chill
I read somewhere (New Scientist magazine I beleive) that quantum wormholes had been shown to exist in just about every part of space. It was also postulated that if one of these quantum wormholes could be forced open then a huge mass of matter and anti-matter would spew forth from it. Unfortunately (or fortunately perhaps) they also said that the amount of energy required to force this wormhole open would be the equivalent of converting the mass of Jupiter into pure energy.
It wouldn't be too much of a stretch of the imagination to think that this amount of energy (stray radiation perhaps) could come together at a given point every once in a very long while and create a spontaneous big bang.
I don't understand all the physics of this but it just seems like a neat idea.
