Challenging the Big Bang: An Irish Author's 'Blowtorch Theory' of the Universe

2025-04-27

Irish author Julian Gough has unveiled a revolutionary cosmological theory, dubbed the 'blowtorch theory,' which challenges the long-held belief in the Big Bang. His theory posits that the universe didn't begin with a singular explosion 13 billion years ago, but rather evolved through multiple stages shaped by powerful jets from supermassive black holes. Supported by observations from the James Webb Space Telescope and attracting venture capital funding, Gough's theory, while controversial, offers a fresh perspective on cosmology and prompts a re-evaluation of existing models.

China's EV Sales to Surpass Traditional Cars Years Ahead of West

2025-01-04

China's electric vehicle (EV) sales are projected to surpass those of traditional combustion engine cars in 2025, a milestone years ahead of Western rivals. Investment banks and research firms predict a 20% year-on-year growth in EV sales, exceeding 12 million units, significantly outpacing forecasts and official targets. Simultaneously, traditional car sales are expected to decline by over 10%. This surge is attributed to China's advancements in domestic technology, secured global supply chains, and economies of scale leading to lower consumer prices. While growth is slowing from its post-pandemic peak, China is poised to achieve its 50% EV sales target by 2035—a decade early. This rapid rise presents a significant challenge to established automakers in Germany, Japan, and the US, forcing them to accelerate their EV transitions.
