Hi there Bobathon, and thanks for chiming in. I admit I have things to learn so don't take this the wrong way, but what is your source for saying this is technically correct?

Peer review is the evaluation of creative work or performance by other people in the same field in order to maintain or enhance the quality of the work or performance in that field.
The word peer is often defined as a person of equal standing. However, in the context of peer review it is generally used in a broader sense to refer to people in the same profession who are of the same or higher ranking.

Hi Arbitrageur! We've met elsewhere online, I believe
Science doesn't – will never and should never – work by someone having a 'vision' which he has convinced himself is the truth, and then trying to force some equations to fit the fantasy without any respect for evidence or for reasoning. Especially if in the meantime they go around claiming they've already proved it. Equations aren't a means of rhetoric. At least they're not in any decent society. In some messed-up world where people are encouraged to worship the equation despite not understanding what it means or what it implies, perhaps they are becoming a means of rhetoric.
Why would something need to contract anyway? If space itself expands, then there just is more space. Why would anything need to contract to make room for it? [3]
In physical cosmology, astronomy and celestial mechanics, dark energy is a hypothetical form of energy that permeates all of space and tends to increase the rate of expansion of the universe.[1] Dark energy is the most popular way to explain recent observations and experiments that the universe appears to be expanding at an accelerating rate. In the standard model of cosmology, dark energy currently accounts for 73% of the total mass-energy of the universe.[2]

Descartes and Newton appear to be directly contradicting what you are saying here. Descartes based much of his work on his 'visions' in his 'oven' or whatever it was. Newton was on a mission to justify his belief in god. They are two prominent examples among many.
And I think it is naive to suggest that there aren't scientists who worship equations rather than reality.
So is space over-unity? Where are we getting more space? Something from nothing?
Can you see how mysterious inflation is, and 'dark energy'?
Getting somewhat off the thread topic of Haramen here, are you sure you don't want to start another thread to discuss the more general physics questions not specific to Haramein's work?

You have lots of company in the scientific community. Virtually nobody (that I know of) expected the dark energy result of accelerating expansion of the universe. So we all have unanswered questions about why and how that happens, or if our observational evidence may be flawed though it doesn't seem so at this point.
I am not sure how space can expand. Its expansion is a force. That force entails energy and work.
How/Why can space exert a force. Where does the energy come from which is expanding?
How can energy or space increase 'on its own'?

Maybe the Universe isn't expanding its your measurement tool that is contracting?

Dr. Kineman references Nassim's paper under the Gravity section if you would like to read it. According to the new paradigm, mass is not thrown away, it is hidden at the center of a proton where gravitational pull of a black hole balances out the equation.

I think so in this case. The university of Colorado didn't review it did they?

If he wrote a paper about environmental science, the subject of his PhD degree, I would tend to assign it some credibility based on his credentials.
John J. Kineman received his Ph.D. in Environmental Studies in 2007. He holds a Bachelors of Science degree from UCLA (1972) in Earth Physics, and a Master of Basic Science degree from CU Boulder (1979) combining ecology and biogeography. He retired from a career with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in 2005 after 27 years service, the last 20 years of which he was working in ecoinformatics.
a sufficiently large but finite mass-density
would ‘hide’ itself inside “Schwarzschild protons” before reaching the singularity. A
quantum vacuum energy of 1034 gm. / cm is sufficient density to establish a black hole at
the radius of a proton. One would then be left with an external space-time geometry that
would again correspond to the original model, with the apparent mass of protons that
does not include their zero point energy. The geometry is consistent with the idea that we
are, in fact, inside a black hole where the infinite mass-density is hidden in the above
manner, thus explaining the origin of matter.
The question naturally arises as to how the inside of a black hole would not experience
tremendous gravitational compression (which has been the assumption of standard
cosmological models). The answer lies, again, in the nature of space-time scaling and the
assumption that gravity is nothing more than space-time curvature. In that case, mass and
gravity have only relative local meaning, because theoretical curvatures in every direction
of distributed mass-density simply nullify each other. There is no absolute frame of
reference for the scale of space-time other than history, so it is only in cosmological
observation that we can observe effects of general mass-density.
According to the new paradigm, mass is not thrown away, it is hidden at the center of a proton where gravitational pull of a black hole balances out the equation.
I'm not persuaded by either this paper nor the other paper I read making the "we are inside a black hole" claim.
Nature doesn't really care what you're opposed to.
I would like it if it would behave one way or the other, but nature doesn't care what I want or expect any more than it cares what you think.
