- beefman 3y agoThe 1e53 kg estimate is based on the observable universe (radius 46 Gly) being flat, and ordinary matter being 4.8% of what's keeping it flat.[1] Is it meaningful that just this baryonic matter has a Schwarzschild radius near that of the Hubble (14.5 Gly) and Cosmic Event (16.7 Gly) horizons?[2][3] Then there's the question of how much baryonic matter we actually see...[4] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe#Estimates_based_on_critical_density https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe#Estimates_...
