Blue Earth 7

By Gary T

When computer tech Harry Seven encounters a bizarre tektite, he discovers the difference between nightmare and reality is only one of dimension. Harry finds himself traversing a reality far beyond the familiar 3-dimensional world of the blue planet, and all is not as it appears.

Who is behind his strange visions? Are they the source of all mythology? What is their connection to time and space?

This is singularity: that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Harry Seven takes his first step on the road to the discovery of the Theory of Everything and Final Ultimate Meaning. With his one giant leap, he learns that life is more (much more) than the meaninglessness of his day job.

Prolog

The blue planet orbits the sun, a star coded G2V, yellow dwarf and main sequence star. Alpha Centauri, the nearest neighbor star to the sun is a triple-star system 8,000 times farther from the blue planet than the dwarf planetoid Pluto. The sun is tucked away in the Milky Way galaxy about two-thirds from the galaxy’s center in the spiral arm known as the Orion Arm. The Milky Way is a disk-shaped galaxy with a diameter of over 90,000 light-years and a thickness of some 3,000 light-years. The sun is just one star among billions of stellar citizens in the Milky Way star city. Three dozen galaxies including the Milky Way bind together by gravity forming a galaxy cluster called the Local Group. Andromeda is one of these sister galaxies renowned for being the only galaxy observable from the blue planet in a dark winter sky with unaided eye.

Galaxies are the cells of the cosmic body. They are the greatest of all building blocks in the Cosmos. Collections of galaxy clusters are gravitationally placed within the final and largest structures of the Cosmos called superclusters. Superclusters look like massively long tattered pieces of ribbon, each containing many thousands of galaxies.

The Local Group, the Milky Way, the sun and the blue planet reside in the Virgo supercluster, a 100 million light-year segment of ribbon with at least 5000 galaxy members. Expanding continuously outwards near the speed of light the boundary of the Cosmos is a sphere with the incomprehensible but finite diameter of 13.73 billion light-years. Beyond this Hubble volume of visible matter is singularity – a convenient mathematical term to cover the paraphysical things of infinity and things unknown.

As much as galaxies give the human species the feeling of being overwhelmed like microbes under a microscope in the vast sea of the Cosmos; and as much as galaxies play a significant role in the order of deep space. The greatest cosmological secret at the beginning of the 21st century does not concern these visible cells of the cosmic body. The greatest mystery is instead the invisible cells of the cosmic body astronomers call dark matter and dark energy.

It is fascinating at this late date of human evolution that the discovery has been made that the Cosmos turns out to follow a dichotomy theory. The galaxies being part of the visible body can be measured directly; while the dark matter and dark energy being part of the invisible (light-less) body can be measured only indirectly.

The light-less body acts as the cosmic spirit that whips stars around galaxies with acceleration unequal to the proportion of the visible matter that is measured. Without the presence of these great-unseen cells, stars would fling themselves away pell-mell from their parent galaxies. Should the dark body ever not exist, galaxies would cease their role as greatest of all building blocks because there would be no more galaxies. The visible cells of the cosmic body would simply dissipate and die away into nonexistence.

Theories of prescientific sources have long maintained the dichotomous nature of the human being. There is, they say, the part seen called the body. On the other hand, there is, they say, the part unseen called the spirit. The body seen is said to act out of proportion to the sum of its parts for example in the case of the Will of Mind. The argument goes that the visible body alone cannot account for freedom of choice. They postulate that a dark extradimensional body is the missing part that gives guidance of free choice to the 3-dimensional body of light.

Since the dark matter phantom, whether of the cosmic body or of the human body is hidden from measuring devices. There can be the expectation they will stir up the most intrigue and controversy. They however, should also trigger in the curious the need to know more.

Language being the communication software of the human body is the algorithm of meaning without which matter, energy, space and information would be unknowable. Minds full of language turn on mystery, wonder, and awe as the wheel turns the world timepiece. The Will of Mind appears obsessed with reducing the complex to the simplest format, to passionately search in the seen and unseen worlds for order, symmetry and meaning.

The Theory of Everything is everything to the world of the blue planet. Nothing else seems to matter much in their day-in and day-out search for the most compelling, and most beautiful of all equations. Their pursuit is religious, though they shun such language. They run as if they run for God. They quest as if the Holy Grail really does exist as if they were those enigmatic knights of the Roundtable those many long years ago. The surprise is their belief in belief. They believe in order, symmetry and meaning. They believe that the equation they seek is beautiful as if somehow the equation depends upon anthropic principle.

Surprise turns to defeat and defeat to dyscatastrophe should the Theory of Everything fail. Whatever they finally conclude, the whole world will follow. Sheep need a shepherd. Should a test from somewhere outside time detect Error Fault, something deep inside their scientific religion will be found not right. It will be discovered they quest, but not for everything. They have turned self into synapse. They have erased existence. Their Theory of Everything is not inclusive of the dark matter of the living singularity. They fail the test.

The peer review search for the Theory of Everything is a dead-end. Kurt Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem: which states that the only proof that can be proven is that no proofs can be proven: spelt the utter end of the Romance with the Calculus. Gödel proved mathematics leads only to mechanics, not Truth. Meta-mathematics fails the test.

Why is there obsession for the Theory of Everything? Evolution does not explain it; evolution cannot explain it. Perhaps in the final analysis when the dust is settled, the Quest of Why will replace the Quest of What. Perhaps a day may come when their greatest minds, whose algorithm of meaning the whole world waits upon, will decode the living singularity.

The Will of Mind is greater than the sum of its parts. Since stars can slingshot around galaxies by unseen matter and energy, still maintaining their galactic stability, will the strong inference for the living singularity
