Gravity's Effect on Universe Expansion: Dark Energy?

[QG Daddy]

Does gravity create a wake in subspace? If so would this wake produce a undetectable energy source or negative pressure in subspace which would indirectly lead to the expansion of all atoms in normal space that sit upon it?

If the universe's expansion is accelerating then could this be because after the initial big bang (a few million-billion years later) there were more distorting gravity forces (stars, black holes, etc...) which would produce more of the wake effect then less distorting gravity forces (gas clouds) which would have existed earlier?

Could this be dark energy?

You may think that this post is hilarious, as I know little of physics, but I thought I'd throw it out there and see if its complete garbage.

I'm sorry but your question doesn't make any sense. "Subspace" may be a term tossed around in science fiction, but this does not equate to real physics.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the relationship between gravity and the expansion of the universe. While your ideas are certainly interesting, they are not supported by current scientific understanding.

Firstly, it is important to clarify that gravity itself is not responsible for the expansion of the universe. In fact, gravity acts as a force of attraction that would normally slow down the expansion. It is actually the presence of a mysterious force called dark energy that is causing the universe's expansion to accelerate.

Dark energy is a hypothetical form of energy that is thought to make up about 70% of the total energy in the universe. Its existence is inferred by the observation that the expansion of the universe is accelerating, and it is believed to be a property of space itself rather than a physical object. Therefore, it is not creating a wake in subspace or producing any kind of energy source or negative pressure.

Furthermore, the expansion of the universe is not caused by individual atoms being pushed apart. Instead, it is the space between galaxies that is expanding, carrying the galaxies along with it. This expansion is happening on a large scale and is not affected by the presence of individual objects like stars or black holes.

In summary, while your ideas are creative, they do not align with current scientific understanding of gravity, dark energy, and the expansion of the universe. It is always great to see people engaging in scientific thinking and asking questions, but it is important to seek out accurate information and evidence-based explanations.
