Cosmology is in crisis. Almost every week new observations contradict the “concordance model” with its mysterious inflation, dark energy and dark matter. The solution to this crisis is in abandoning the basic failed hypothesis of the Big Bang itself. Without a Big Bang, the phenomena that we see in the cosmos--the large-scale structures, the abundance of light elements, the cosmic microwave background--can all be explained in quantitative detail. These phenomena are the products of physical processes that are well-known in the laboratory and within our Solar System: electromagnetism, gravity and nuclear fusion. In particular, the magnetic pinch effect, which forms magnetic vortex filaments on all scales, has been critical in producing the universe that we now observe. These same filaments are also critical to the fastest route to using fusion energy for humanity. The plasma physics concepts that can banish the dark and mysterious universe of the Big Bang can as well pave the way for a brighter future here on earth.
Eric Lerner is President and Chief Scientist at LPPFusion, a small clean energy R&D company. He is the author of The Big Bang Never Happened and for 30 years has been one of the leading cosmology researchers who are critical of the Big Bang hypothesis. His papers have been published in major peer-reviewed journals such as Astrophysical Journal and the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. He is also an active researcher in the effort to develop fusion energy—the power of the sun and stars—for use here on earth. LPPFusion is a world leader in that effort.
