Mind you, the primeval atom <br>At the beginning of time exploded in the so called Big Bang <br>Nearly 14 billion years ago. Now, as you might know, <br>Nothing can travel faster than light. But when you look <br>Across the vast space of the visible cosmos, from one edge <br>To the other, you ought to consider that these two edges are<br> Approximately 28 billion years apart.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“So what? ” the crocodile asked.<br>The plover took a deep breath. “Well, if nothing can travel<br>Faster than light and the universe is 14 billion years old, <br>How can the two edges of the universe be 28 billion years apart? ”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“Oh, I see”, the crocodile said. <br>“Maybe the Big Bang Theory is wrong”.<br>“Why”, the bird said, “the problem involves the exchange<br>Of information, energy and heat because these also<br>Can only occur at the speed of light.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“I am somewhat at a loss to follow you”, the crocodile said.<br>“Look! Different distant regions of outer space in the cosmos<br>Are very far from each other and cannot communicate.<br>In spite of this, the microwave background radiation <br>Filling in the universe seems inscrutably uniform.<br>It measures the same temperature everywhere.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“So, to me”, the crocodile said, “this just proves again<br>That the Big Bang Theory is wrong”.<br>“Not necessarily”, the plover objected. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">“Consider, for example, the possibility that at its birth, <br>In less than a second after the Big Bang, <br>The early universe underwent an extremely rapid process<br>Of exponential expansion so that all its parts originated<br>In a casually connected region. Astrophysicists call this<br>Exponential expansion the Theory of Cosmic Inflation”.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“I am very impressed by your erudition”, the crocodile said.<br>“Thank you”, smiled the bird. “Also, Cosmic Inflation Theory <br>Can explain why the universe appears to be flat, isotropic<br>And homogenous, that is to say uniform in all orientation.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“Flat? How can it be flat? ” the crocodile asked.<br>“My understanding is”, said the bird, “that when scientists<br>Talk about a flat universe, they mean a doughnut shaped<br>Three dimensional topological object known as torus.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“Wow”, the crocodile exclaimed. “This is really amazing.<br>Yet I have another hypothesis. How about the possibility<br>That the speed of light has changed throughout the ages<br>After this colossal firecracker event of the Big Bang happened.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0">“I think we should end this conversation now”, <br>The plover said, “because some humans are watching us<br>And they look like hunters rather than biologists.”<br>“Do not worry”, the crocodile said, <br>“They have no idea that we are aliens.”</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Paul+Hartal">Paul Hartal</a><div class=q>

The Sun rose toward the zenith in the sky, 
The hot air was trembling over unstirred grass
And an Egyptian plover landed near the river.

“Long time no see”, the crocodile said.
