Conversations Beyond Science and Religion Lost in Space: Gravity Waves and the Inflationary Big Bang
b'Media outlets (http://www.cnn.com/2014/03/17/tech/innovation/big-bang-gravitational-waves/)across the globe have recently reported that a group of physicists, using sophisticated imaging equipment in the south pole, have detected gravity waves that in turn prove the reality of the inflationary big bang. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflation_%28cosmology%29) So what does this mean? What are gravity waves and how can these waves prove the reality of an inflation scenario that supposedly occurred less than a trillionth of a second after creation? On this show, Philip Mereton and guest, Alexandar Unzicker, author of Bankrupting Physics: How Today\\u2019s Top Scientists are Gambling Away Their Credibilit (http://www.amazon.com/Bankrupting-Physics-Scientists-Gambling-Credibility/dp/1137278234)y, take a fresh perspective on this latest cosmological finding, and talk about what it all really means.'
