		<description>Dr. Pam -
I found your post from 2007 after googling for &quot;center of the universe is relative&quot; and &quot;computer simulation of center of universe&quot;.  Isn&#039;t it ironic that the Church censured Galileo for his observation that the Earth was not the center of the universe.  And now 300 years later we find that, well, maybe the Church wasn&#039;t so wrong, and that both were possibly correct.  It is one of the difficult facets of the Christian faith to come to terms with knowledge that at first appears incomprehensible - but then science opens doors to understanding.  Kind of like &quot;a day is like a thousand years (to the Lord) and a thousand years but a day.&quot;  The concept appears self-contradictory at first.  

It&#039;s not the Truth that has changed, but our perception of it, hmm?  OK, so what I really want to know is, do you know of any computer simulations that show what a universe that revolved around a stationary Earth would look like.  Not that I really need to &quot;see&quot; it - more I just want to know if, in fact, anyone has gone to the trouble to create the simulation.  Your post is amazing by itself; almost entirely the scientific validation of the concept that I was looking for.  But I am sure there are others.  Can you advise or guide me?

God bless you!</description>

		<description>I think itâ€šÃ„Ã´s important to distinguish between the center of the universe, and the relative cycles of movement. 

Every point isnâ€šÃ„Ã´t the center of the universe, because everything that is perceived through our senses, are experienced in our consciousness. In other words, the information we receive through our senses, are subjective interpretations of reality. 

Consciousness is the center of reality, because everything we experience, takes place within it. This means that every point that is observed, becomes part of our consciousness because we observe it. Everything that is observed, is experienced in consciousness. Because consciousness is the center of existence, everything that is experienced in it, becomes the center as well. Everything is experience, and experience exists in consciousness (the center of reality). As a result, only the experience of everything observed, is the relative center of reality. 

When discussing the center of the universe, we should think in cycles and relations, rather than experience. Because everything is experience, what we really want to know, is the relationship between different elements of this experience. We know the moon orbits the earth, and that the planets in our solar system orbit the sun. Nobody would state that the Earth doesnâ€šÃ„Ã´t orbit the Sun, because Earth is the relative center of the universe. It doesnâ€šÃ„Ã´t matter if the Earth or the sun is defined as the center, because the relationship between them is still the same. Earth orbits the Sun, no matter which are proclaimed the center. Again, both Earth and Sun are the center of the universe, because they are experienced in consciousness. But that has nothing to do with their relationship between each other, being different elements within our experience. 

The Moon orbits the Earth, the Earth orbits the Sun. These elements define how we experience time, because the speed of time is a result of their movements and cycles. What cycles does our solar system have? What does are solar system orbit? What does our galaxy orbit? These are the relationships that are relevant, regarding the center of the universe.</description>

		<description>Wow, that was a fantastic read. I was staying up until 5am trying to understand this myself, but it was fun the whole way through. I love trying to understand the universe and my place within it. Now, I have more questions than answers, but I couldn&#039;t be happier knowing there is so much more left of the universe to be seen let alone understood.</description>

though i m a software eng. still i found your article very illuminating...
but can anyone explain &quot;recombination&quot; more  clearly and in less technical way...</description>

		<description>The CMB permeates the whole of space and although it
comes from a black-body at only 4 deg Kelvin it must
amount to an enormous total energy. Has anyone calculated
the solar-mass equivalent of this energy ?</description>

		<description>Hi, If the Universe if infinite then it seems to me that we are all at the center of the Universe. Any direction we go in will be the same distance.

And, if we consider the relativity of time/space then in terms of the Universe our galaxy is incredibly small. Our solar system much smaller, our planet very small and each of us . . . a blip on a blip. In terms of infinity there is not much difference between our galaxy (one can imagine it being in the center) and our-selves. 

To consider that I, you and everyone else is in the center of the universe is not too unmanageable of a concept considering the above.

With respect to electrical energies flowing back and forth through the universe, I like to think that every second, sixty seconds a minute infinite quantities of energy flow through my electrical system with an in/out pulse. And, when I smile and conduct love that that pulse brings love into my life (the law of attraction) and sends it out to the universe.

What do you thing?</description>

		<description>I&#039;m sorry, but Gursplex on Alpha Eck is *not* the center of the universe.  Everybody knows that Raxacoricofallapatorian is the real center of the universe.</description>

		<description>Wow..I had to reread your blog about 10 times slowly..then print it out..
That is so interesting to say the least..
so as a follow up.. you said,
It is currently thought that our universe is best visualized as a 4 dimensional hyper-torus.
I thought the 4th Dimension was time..or is that apples and oranges?
I liked your reference to the universe being like
the Ocean, that i can relate to.
The String theorist predict 10 or 11 dimensions right? That kind of throws a monkey wrench into the Torus shape right? And Membranes to boot?
Do you work with Theorists and combine your actual visual data that you observe with thier kind of &#039;wacky&#039; ideas? :) Doesn&#039;t your visual proof validate thier theories? Like the time Einstein was proved right about gravity bending light via observation?  
Anyway that was a great article...</description>

		<description>After reading this I have one question...
If we somehow build a ultra utlra... (well you get the point) sensitive telescope... does that mean we can see ourselfs? since a proton that shot of should eventually end up back here...

If the answer is yes... the image would be in reverse right?

Note: we assume the earth was around for ever and will be for ever for it to work since else we might be gone when the first &quot;images&quot; of a earth will start to appear.

Does my question make any sense to you? It got me more confused by asking it.</description>
