Way outside the box.It would seem difficult to distinguish between the repulsive force that dark energy proposes and the regular gravitational grav·i·ta·tion n. 1. Physics a. The natural phenomenon of attraction between physical objects with mass or energy. b. The act or process of moving under the influence of this attraction. 2. pull of ordinary matter ("Dark Fingerprints: Hubble sheds light on cosmic expansion," SN: 11/18/06, p. 323). Somehow, the idea of multiple universes surrounding our universe, embodying the known laws of physics and providing the gravitational pull, is easier for me to accept than a mysterious dark energy nobody can explain.
