You have to consider the idea of the unperceivable variable. All your calculations and expectations about how something is supposed to unfold can go out the window because of something you can’t perceive is acting on the situation.…Scientists talk about Dark Energy, that strange force that is supposedly accelerating the expansion of the universe faster than they can account for. Is something pushing it, or is our known universe being pulled towards something?…Prediction of any kind is still a probability game if you cannot perceive all variables. How do you predict what will happen when you drop a wine glass? Where exactly will all the shards land, or because of some unknown force, will the glass not break?

Of course I don’t remember the name or the author – but I remember the imagethe story of a physicist being so very excited – to observe a minute explosion of matter create a teeny, tiny Universe.
