I had a bit of an epiphany the other day when I was musing over various cosmological ideas, like big-bang, cyclic and steady state models. It occured to me that there is one model that hasn't had much of if any mention. The idea came from considering how nature handles the specific problem of diffusing energy in other environments and thus led me to believe that there is another possible cosmological model that may require consideration. The idea came from considering convection cycles in both solar and geophysical realms. Here the idea is that energetic regions are expelled to the outer regions in a column and cooler outer regions sink in parallel setting up convection cycles. Cosmologically speaking, we may be living in such a universe and just happen to inhabitate a region of "hot" space expanding radially outward, were other regions of "cool space" are contracting radially inward. This I call the convection cosmological model. There is nothing that I can think of in the laws of physics that prohibits this kind of model as I have said, it is a mechanism already employed in nature. [Mod. note: this was originally cross-posted between s.a.r. and s.p.r., but I've restricted it to s.a.r. only -- mjh]
