there was no place 1 inch from the surface.
all the rulers were inside. Actually not rulers, but the photons that would coalesce into the hydrogen that would be baked into carbon inside an exploding star then turned into cellulose by a tree and finally carved into rulers, said photons being so Veeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrreey carefully arranged inside that tiny (smaller than a hydrogen atom) space so that all the inches on all the rulers in the universe are now the same length.
Unless they are moving, of course.

That is a good question, and the answer is nobody really knows. The is no concrete scientific evidence that says what was around before the big bang. Could God have been there playing billiards? Could the Easter Bunny laid a universe egg? Could there be other quantum strings that interacted between our universe and another? I would like the believe that given time, man will discover the answer, but I doubt it will be within my life time.

I don't think there was anything there at all. As for a tiny ball, well you might want to look at it more like a one dimensional point rather than a ball. This is where we experience a singularity though because the mathematics break down.

These kinds of questions are great but unanswerable. Makes a person think. One day we might have a better understanding of what happened but is for sure was not a god because the same question comes up there too. Where did this sky god come from? He had to start somewhere just like everything else did.

There was nothing outside the surface of that ball.

It wasn't a little ball it was nothing. And there was nothing 1 inch away as well.

Big Bang ,yea, right !!! Just look at Hiroshima and Nagasaki and see what the BIG BANG did for them. Read Genesis in the bible and see if it makes more sense than a BIG BANG

Space is not defined beyond the extent of the universe. This is like asking how the color blue feels about its place in the world.

There was nothing, because outside of the ball space did not exist.
