Big news on Big BangBy Tom Smith
It looks like the universe
did inflate from extremely tiny to the size of a grapefruit in a trillionth of a second about 13.7 billion years ago. The rest is history.
This is supposed to be a really good book by the guy,
Alan Guth, who came up with the inflationary theory. It seems like more of the MSM stories might at least mention his name. I mean, he did come up with idea of inflation, which now looks like it has been confirmed in spectacular manner. Maybe he will get the Nobel Prize.
