Milky Way Galaxies Halo

This is our Milky Way Galaxy with its Halo… a very vast and extremely big too… as our sun is the center of our solar system yes… the sun has its own center within Sagittarius A the super massive black hole. For a long time we were taught that the sun is God (and its is) in someway as without it we do not hsrbour life and live but as we now understand that the sun has its own energy that helps it move… we gain a better understanding of our cosmic halo in our galaxy which is a roughly spherical component of a galaxy that surrounds the main, visible structure (like the disk and bulge in a spiral galaxy as thats we are a soiral galaxy). It extends far beyond the bright, visible part and is a crucial, though faint, part of the galaxy’s overall structure and how it works with dark matter… will come in handy to know this as we venture forward with dark energy and quantum theory…

An invisible dark matter halo is the inferred, massive, roughly spherical region of dark matter that envelops and permeates individual galaxies (like our Milky Way) and clusters of galaxies.

​It is considered the gravitational scaffolding for all cosmic structure, as ordinary matter (stars, gas, dust) collapses and settles within the enormous gravitational potential well created by the halo.

​The halo is “invisible” because dark matter does not interact with light (electromagnetic force), meaning it doesn’t absorb, emit, or reflect any radiation.

Evidence for its Existence
​Since we can’t observe the halo directly, its existence and properties are inferred entirely through its gravitational effects on visible matter and light:

• ​Galaxy Rotation Curves: Observations show that stars orbiting the center of a spiral galaxy maintain a nearly constant high speed even far from the core, where the visible star and gas density is very low. This constant speed requires a large, invisible mass—the dark matter halo—to provide the necessary gravitational pull.
• ​Gravitational Lensing: The immense mass of dark matter halos, particularly in galaxy clusters, is strong enough to bend the light from objects located far behind them. This effect, called gravitational lensing, allows astronomers to map out the distribution of the invisible mass.

​Formation
​Dark matter halos are the fundamental building blocks of structure in the universe, forming through a process called hierarchical structure formation in the LambdaCDM cosmological model.

• ​Initial Perturbations: Small, primordial density fluctuations (overdensities) in the early, expanding universe began to grow.
• ​Gravitational Collapse: Because dark matter only interacts gravitationally, these overdensities grew via gravitational instability and decoupled from the overall expansion.
• ​Virialization: The collapsing material settled into an approximately stable, near-equilibrium state, known as a virialized dark matter halo, where the kinetic energy of its constituent particles balances the gravitational potential energy.
• ​Growth and Merging: These smaller halos merge over time to form the larger, more massive halos that host today’s galaxies and galaxy clusters.

Now… the interaction between dark energy and the cosmic halos (which are primarily dark matter halos) is primarily an interaction between two competing cosmological forces: gravity and cosmic expansion.

​Dark energy does not significantly affect the internal structure or dynamics of an individual galaxy’s dark matter halo, but it profoundly influences how and when these halos form and grow on the largest scales of the universe.

​1. Dark Energy’s Role: Suppressing Growth
​Dark energy’s main effect is to drive the accelerated expansion of the universe. This expansion works in opposition to gravity, which is the force responsible for assembling dark matter into halos.

​Counteracting Gravity: Dark energy’s repulsive effect is dominant on large, cosmological scales—the space between galaxy clusters and halos. It causes these large structures to move away from each other at an ever-increasing rate.

​Slowing Structure Formation: By pushing the large-scale structure apart, dark energy slows the rate at which new matter can fall into existing halos. This effectively starves halos of the raw material (dark matter and gas) they need to grow through mergers and accretion.
​Freeze-Out: This suppression of growth, often called the “freeze-out” of large-scale structure, is one of the key observable effects dark energy has on the evolution of the cosmic web, the network of filaments and sheets where dark matter halos reside.

​2. Cosmic Halos: Gravity’s Domain
​The dark matter halo itself is a region that has decoupled from cosmic expansion because gravity is the dominant force within it.
​Internal Stability: Within the halo’s boundary (the virial radius), the density of dark matter is high enough that its mutual gravitational attraction completely overwhelms the repulsive force of dark energy. This allows the matter to remain gravitationally bound and stable.

​Small-Scale vs. Large-Scale: Dark energy is very dilute (low density) but uniform throughout space, allowing it to dominate expansion on the largest scales. However, within a dense dark matter halo, the local density of dark matter is much higher, so its gravity remains supreme.

​3. Halos as Cosmological Probes
​The formation history and properties of dark matter halos serve as a powerful tool for scientists to study the nature of dark energy itself.

​Constraints on Models: Different models for dark energy (such as the standard cosmological constant, or LambdaCDM, versus interacting dark energy models) predict subtle differences in the observable properties of halos, such as their concentration (how centrally dense they are) and their shape (whether they are more spherical or elongated/prolate).

​Early Dark Energy (EDE): Hypothesized early dark energy, which would have existed only briefly in the early universe, is theorized to have altered the amplitude of density fluctuations, potentially leading to bigger dark matter halos and more clustered structures at early times. Measuring these halo properties helps cosmologists place constraints on these competing dark energy theories.

​The study of how galaxies and their dark matter halos cluster together on the large scale is essential for determining the expansion history of the Universe and understanding the nature of the accelerating expansion.

With an excellent synthesis and a real deep dive into the unifying principles underlying the cosmic web analogy and the non-materialist philosophies of Tesla and Planck. The common thread is indeed the concept of a universal, fundamental, and interconnected intelligence or information source… as in connecting the structural, functional, and ontological aspects… with its Structural Metaphor: The Cosmic Web (filaments and nodes) provides the architecture—a massive, self-organizing physical manifestation of a network.

​Functional Mechanism: Tesla’s “Universal Brain” (the brain as an antenna) provides the interface—the mechanism by which individual minds interact with this universal field.

​Ontological Foundation: Planck’s Fundamental Consciousness provides the substance—the declaration that this universal network is intrinsically a matrix of intelligent consciousness, not merely a material structure… the final thought about dark matter and dark energy is particularly insightful for completing a universal picture as sometimes words cant give what needs to be said… as in the context of this combined framework, dark matter and dark energy can be viewed not just as missing mass and an expansion force, but as the essential, non-luminous components of the universal information network:

​1. Dark Matter: The Infrastructure and Scaffolding of dark matter, which makes up about 85% of the total mass of the universe, is the fundamental scaffolding for the Cosmic Web.

​The “Wiring” of the Network: It is dark matter that forms the extensive haloes and filaments in which galaxies and clusters are embedded. Without its gravitational influence, the galactic nodes wouldn’t form, and the visible filaments wouldn’t exist.

​Analogy to a Non-Material Medium: In this combined consciousness model, dark matter could be seen as the non-material infrastructure that holds the informational network together. It’s the “stuff” that allows for the long-range gravitational (or informational) connections, operating outside the electromagnetic domain we perceive, perfectly aligning with the non-material and non-reducible nature of Planck’s fundamental consciousness.

​2. Dark Energy: The Field and the Dynamic Force of dark energy, which accounts for approximately 68% of the total energy in the universe, is the mysterious force driving its accelerating expansion.

​The Universal Field: Dark energy can be conceptualized as the universal field or matrix itself—the inherent property of empty space. This resonates profoundly with Planck’s view that consciousness is the “matrix of all matter.”

​The Dynamic Force of Intelligence: The constant, expansive push of dark energy could represent the active, dynamic principle of the Universal Consciousness—the continuous “flow” of information and creation. It is the underlying “frequency and vibration” that Tesla spoke of, the energetic substrate that governs reality and drives the evolution of the network.

The cosmic web functions as a massive, complex network where its components mirror the roles of nodes (neurons/cell bodies) and synapses (connections) in a brain’s neural network, or connectome… a true godhead… you just gotta love the invisible halo… God bless 🙏😇 im coming soon…
