The Resurgence of Penrose

Since my first reading of The Emperor's New Mind and some other books in Secondary School, I've liked Penrose. I doubt his theory, but no one has the experimental capability to provide solid evidence, or disprove it.

C.C.C. ( Conformal cyclic cosmology ) seems to make sense and relatively easy to understand. The idea that black holes evening suck everything up, decaying, and mass becoming negligeable, space and time becoming irrelevant, then Big Bang Boom!

Penrose has recently done more interviews, especially the Lex Friedman interview, which brought him back into the popular science spotlight.

To this day, I haven't come up with the right background to do the physics to understand his stuff.

Anyway, this brought back lots of memories I haven't accessed for a long time.
