Stephen Hawking writes, “In real time, the universe has a beginning and an end at singularities that form a boundary to space-time and at which the laws of science break down. But in imaginary time, there are no singularities or boundaries. So maybe what we call imaginary time is really more basic …” (“A Brief History of Time” by Stephen Hawking - Bantam Press, 1988, p.139) When Hawking says there are no singularities in imaginary time, can his statement relate to physics? Or is it purely mathematical, in which case it would reinforce the idea that the universe began with a singularity and a Big Bang? I believe imaginary time has physical meaning since it can be developed from space-time where parallel lines become perpendicular without any motion occurring. Such a feat depends on a particular form of General Relativity’s space-time curvature. It leads to new cosmology and quantum physics that includes deletion of distance on every scale – plus a method for cosmogenesis or creation of the universe. This author has a habit of copying and pasting. I’ve done it in the past to present an idea in different contexts, hoping that would demonstrate the idea’s validity. In this article, sentences are added to my recycling – showing that I still believe in the basic idea I started with, but adding information (sometimes from mathematics) to support that basis. In addition, I’ve included a 600-word summary at the start that was inspired by a reply I gave to HarryT in the vixra forums (where I write as rodney1956) as well as by the 2012 Nature Letter “Quantum teleportation over 143 kilometres using active feed-forward “ (http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v489/n7415/full/nature11472.html). The summary uses strings to unite fields and matter. I've decided to call the strings bits (Binary digITS) that aren't only regarded as units of information, but also as quantum-size pulses of energy.
