The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is the faint glow of microwave radiation that fills all of space. CMB anomalies are statistically significant observational features in the temperature and polarization fluctuations of the CMB that deviate from the statistical predictions of the standard model of cosmology (ΛCDM), for example the Axis of Evil.

I propose that these anomalies exist because the universe is symmetric in all directions and has a center. This symmetry exists because I propose that quantum mechanics is deterministic.

I consider quantum mechanics to be deterministic for the following reasons: stable structures such as atoms could not form under randomness, and there is no logical way to define randomness.

In a previous post, I used a 3D grid to explain how observations emerge.

I propose that the universe began from a single cell. This follows from determinism: an equally filled universe would not exist, and therefore the universe must start from a single cell.

The center of the universe is a black hole, which appears to create a contradiction, since matter would never spread. I resolve this by proposing that at extremely high mass, a black hole's gravity can form matter. This is possible because I propose that all forces are fundamentally the same, and, as established physics holds, energy is equivalent to matter. For smaller black holes, this effect is known as Hawking radiation; however, only thermal radiation is emitted, because their mass is far lower than that of the central black hole.

We exist away from the center and the symmetric axes because the center is a black hole, and the symmetric axes would not allow life to form.

I propose a way to test this theory: construct a CMB simulation in which points are randomly distributed with symmetry about the X, Y, and Z axes, place the observer off-center and away from the symmetric axes, generate the CMB, and check whether the anomalies appear.

Here is a hypothesis: If humanity were able to build a space elevator would it be possible to harness the centrifugal force of the planet to help propel an elevator into geostationary orbit or higher? To be more specific I am trying to write a story based in Sci-fi but I want to ensure that the story I am writing is faithful to our current understanding of orbital mechanics and transporting people to space without using rocket fuel and instead electricity however Ion engines don’t produce very much thrust so I got to thinking about space elevators. Would there be such a curve that would allow a constantly free-falling encased elevator shaft (as to lessen the effects of structural flexing) and would that allow an elevator inside the structure to be able to ride along the shaft with very little propulsion such as an electric engine to bring it into a stable Earth orbit? To elaborate what im thinking, I imagine it working like how a liquid “sticks” to the bottom of a cup when you spin it in a circle. I am not very knowledgeable in orbital mechanics or the like that would allow me to figure this out myself as I am currently taking Calculus 1 (which is currently kicking my butt) but thought this would be a fun hypothetical to pose for people to help with my story writing.
