- direwolf20 9mo agoyeah, that extra bit that Einstein was very embarrassed about having to write, the bit that says "... plus the expansion of the universe" It explains nothing. It's just tacked on the end there.
- Recurecur 9mo agoThe expansion of the universe is largely due to the impulse provided by the Big Bang. General Relativity does attempt to explain some details regarding what’s happened after the Big Bang, but provides no insight into the Big Bang itself. Nor does it offer insight into Dark Energy, a concept that Einstein opposed.
