The title of this article is misleading and fairly outrageous if I may say so. Based on what I just read here, they did not create a new universe, they created a vastly simplified model of one aspect of the universe in order to study inflation.

Anything relying on the string hypothesis is pretty much guaranteed to be bogus. The phenomena may be real, the explanation involving 3-branes is not.

HAHAHA LOL — they forget relativity already? Who says this universe doesn’t also fit in a thimble! It would just be a massive thimble to us!

Global poverty is created by governments through the IMF and World Bank.

Read a book and stop letting yourself be brainwashed.

i saw a great image of the cycle of research, where at the blog/website portion of information distribution and interpretation, you get bull shit articles like this which don’t make a god damned bit of sense or leave out vital experimental information in order to write a good article about creating a universe.

Supercooled helium does not a universe make.

“which are created by the rapid expansion, and equally rapid slowing of the expansion; something that it’s believed our own universe did at the big bang and in the moments thereafter. How, then, did our universe go from whirlpools that could fit in a thimble to galaxies larger than our imaginations can properly comprehend? Physicists, ever ready with their dry wit, have deemed these phenomena “inflation.” Nobody knows how this works or why, this happened.”
Isn’t this “I don’t know but it happened so believe it” exactly what you complain about me saying? The only value to an education from a “small liberal arts college” is being able to identify one’s own contradictions. If you haven’t even that much, why bother?

[...] to build a universe. In fact, they have already formed one, or something very much like it. This scientific breakthrough lies in the bottom of a chamber no larger than your pinky finger, filled with helium [...]
