I think that the star are all crystal spears fixed in place, orbiting around the earth, which is the center of the universe. It would help explain all of the science of the 16th century.

If the hologram theory helps explain our current crappy science, then its fine by me if scientists believe it. Even if its true, it doesn't change anything. The only way it changes things is if I worry about it.

1. Why does it have to change things?

2. It almost certainly will change things.

 

 

1. If it doesn't. its useless.

2. Doubtful. Most of these obscure theories don't catch on. String theory changed scientist funding a bit but overall it changed nothing... I guess money could go to fund hologram theory. I didn't think of that.

 

 1. Pratically yes. But we would have understood how the universe we live in works. That is amazing.

2. String Theory is a relatively modern theory. Infact it isn't complete. We only have approximations to the equations of string theory. No applications have come up yet, but give it time.
