This avenue of inquiry is not meant to account for the expansion of the universe (which is what the Big Bang does) but rather to account for why the expansion of the universe is accelerating.

This may also be related to why the strength of gravity is so much smaller than the other basic forces. All four should be roughly the same, but gravity is next to nothing by comparison. If most of the gravity is leaking, what we see is the small amount remaining in our universe.

Ok, now I'm going to ask a really dumb question then I'm going to go run away and hide LOL!!

Is there such a thing as up or down in space? Like if bird shot were shot up, if there is such a thing as up in space, would it continue up for all time or would it reach a point where it began to fall? And if it did begin to fall how would it react? Would it, being in a vacume, travle at the same speed on it's way down?
