The Origin of the Universe: From a Great ice of Water Emerged Everything That Exists

By ROGELIO PEREZ CASADIEGO

This book takes the reader on a captivating journey through the different cosmological theories that humanity has forged to explain the great enigma of our origins.

Starting with the colorful mythical narratives of ancient civilizations, moving through the revolutionary ideas of Greek philosophers seeking natural principles, and culminating in the modern "Big Bang theory," the author unravels how human ingenuity has tried to unveil the ultimate secrets of creation.

With an engaging yet rigorous style, the intricate universe models of thinkers such as Anaximander, Democritus, Aristotle, or Ptolemy are analyzed, contrasting their visions with those of mystics.

After critically reviewing the inconsistencies of the current dominant Big Bang theory, the author ventures to outline his own theory of the origin of the universe, with a primordial cosmos constituted by a "great amorphous ice" that encapsulated the generative potential from which everything that exists emerged.

The book presents a new theory of the origin of the universe, answering in a logical and rational way the mysterious origin that contains us and of which we are a part.

1 Introduction 

The book contains a fascinating analysis of the possible origin of the universe, exploring ancient cosmogonies, the development of rational thought in ancient Greece, revolutionary modern theories like the Big Bang, and new alternative hypotheses.

It begins with a review of early mythical ideas in primitive societies that sought to explain creation, characterized by elements such as chaos, darkness, water, or divine intervention. The crucial turn in Ionian thinkers like Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes is then analyzed, who sought underlying natural principles rather than symbolic narratives.

Contributions of key Pre-Socratic philosophers such as Xenophanes, Heraclitus, Democritus, and Anaxagoras in cosmology and ontology are summarized, laying the foundations of Western cosmological thought. Ideas of Aristarchus, Aristotle, Claudius Ptolemy, and others dominating until Copernicus and Kepler are also covered.

In modern times, the Big Bang theory and supporting evidence, such as the cosmic microwave background radiation, are presented. Inconsistencies of this dominant model are also exposed, opening the door to alternative cosmologies, such as the one formulated in the book, with a primordial universe filled with amorphous ice of water leading to significant transformations.

With creativity and rigor, the document takes us on a journey through historical and current worldviews on the origin of the cosmos, inviting us to reflect with new eyes on this eternal enigma that continues to challenge and inspire humanity.

The conclusion is that the Big Bang theory has not adequately explained the actual functioning of the universe. The book presents a new theory for the origin of the universe based on a great ice of water.

* OBJECTIVE OF THE BOOK

1. Take a historical journey through the main cosmological theories developed by humans to explain the origin of the universe.

2. Analyze the evolution of human thought regarding explanatory models of the cosmos, from initial mythical cosmogonies to revolutionary modern scientific theories.

3. Study the cosmological ideas of significant philosophers from ancient times such as Thales, Anaximander, Heraclitus, Parmenides, Aristotle, etc.

4. Review the contributions of Nicolaus Copernicus, Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei, and other scientists in the transition to a modern view of the universe.

5. Critique the Big Bang theory and its fundamental concepts such as microwave background radiation, Hubble's Law, and the initial singularity.

6. Provide a general perspective on how human understanding of the cosmos and its origins has evolved alongside the development of philosophy and science.

7. Emphasize the importance of focusing on the laws and natural behavior of matter to truly understand the origin of the universe. The book concludes with a new theory of the universe based on water ice as a way to comprehend how the world functions at a fundamental level.

In summary, the book aims to present the background of the various worldviews that humanity has developed using the available thinking tools in each historical period and to explain a new theory of the universe based on a large ice of water.
