For over two decades, the cosmological community has wrestled with an enigma: why is the Universe expanding at an accelerated rate? The most common explanation has been the existence of an invisible force called dark energy—an unobservable, hypothetical element that supposedly makes up nearly 70% of the Universe. But what if this concept is not only flawed but entirely unnecessary?
This is the central premise of Natural Universe Expansion (NUE), a revolutionary theory proposed by Scientist Baldevkrishan Sharma, which gives rise to the Living Organic Universe (LOU) Model—a scientific framework that redefines how we perceive cosmic evolution and renders the idea of dark energy obsolete.
What is the Living Organic Universe (LOU) Model?
The LOU Model is an extension of the NUE Theory and envisions the Universe not as a static mechanical system, but as a living, breathing entity. Just as living organisms grow, evolve, and adapt, so too does the Universe. Sharma’s model suggests that every celestial body—whether galaxies, stars, or even atoms—undergoes continuous, intrinsic expansion at a compounding rate over time. This dynamic behavior is governed by a new universal constant called the Nu constant, derived from the NUE Law, which corrects the flaws of Hubble’s Law by incorporating time into the expansion equation.
Why Dark Energy Isn’t Needed
In traditional cosmology, the unexplained acceleration of the Universe’s expansion prompted the invention of dark energy. But the LOU Model offers a radically different explanation: the acceleration is natural and results from the intrinsic properties of cosmic matter itself. According to Sharma’s research, as the Universe evolves, it maintains constant ratios of density, temperature, and gravitational balance, much like biological systems maintain homeostasis. Thus, the need for an external, invisible energy force vanishes.
Biological Parallels in Cosmology
The Living Organic Universe is not metaphorical—it draws precise, scientific parallels between biological life and cosmic systems. Just like cells divide and grow while maintaining their structure and function, galaxies and celestial bodies expand while retaining consistent cosmic laws. Sharma’s theory posits that the Universe is genetically programmed to evolve, expand, and maintain its equilibrium—an idea rooted in over 25 years of research at the Astrogenesis Research Foundation.
Implications for Science and Research
The LOU Model challenges long-held cosmological assumptions, offering a testable, mathematically backed alternative to dark energy. It invites scientists, PhD researchers, and cosmologists to reconsider their frameworks and explore cosmic evolution from a more organic, self-regulating perspective.
If validated, this theory could reshape our understanding of time, matter, and the Universe itself—without relying on speculative components. The Natural Universe Expansion theory is more than a new idea; it is a bold step toward a cosmology that is as alive as we are.
