A Bouncing Cosmology from VECROs

We argue that, in the same way that in a black hole space-time VECROs will form in order to cancel the gravitational effects of a collapsing mass shell and prevent the formation of a singularity, in a contracting universe a gas of VECROs will form to hold up the contraction, prevent a Big Crunch singularity, and lead to a nonsingular cosmological bounce.
