what was there before Big-bang?

Answer 1

What if there was never a Big Bang or any sort of beginning? - I can't get past the thought that "we" - being the universe and all components throughout the ages have always just existed. I think it is just human nature that we always need to know what the beginning (and ending for that matter) of EVERYTHING is. I cant see it as being feasible for there ever to have been a "beginning" - Can't get my mind around it!!!

Answer 2

Actually that isn't a valid question.

According to Relativity and simplified for your veiwing pleasure, Time is merely a consequence of there being Gravity. Gravity itself is merely a consequence of there being Matter.

This means that asking what happened before the big bang would be like asking Goerge Washington about the gas mileage of a SUV, an easy century before anything resembling the modern car was even invented. Time didn't exist yet before the Big Bang, so nothing could have happened before the Big Bang.

Answer 3

Whatever physics preceded the Big Bang left the Universe in this state. So the physics description of whatever happened before the Big Bang has to address the flatness problem.

Answer 4

Once upon a time, 20 billions of years ago, all matter
(all elementary particles and all quarks and
their girlfriends- antiparticles and antiquarks,
all kinds of waves: electromagnetic, gravitational,
muons… gluons field ….. etc.) – was assembled in a “single point”.
It is interesting to think about what had surrounded the “single point”.
EMPTINESS- NOTHING….???
Ok!
But why does everyone speak about EMPTINESS- NOTHING in
common phrases rather than in specific, concrete terms?
I wonder why nobody has written down this EMPTINESS- NOTHING in
the form of a physical formula ? You see, every schoolboy knows that
is possible to express the EMPTINESS- NOTHING condition
by the formula T=0K.
* * *
Once there was a “Big Bang”.
But in what space had the Big Bang taken place
and in what space was the matter of the Big Bang distributed?
Not in T=0K?
It is clear, that there is only EMPTINESS, NOTHING, in T=0K.
Now consider that the Universe, as an absolute frame of reference is
in a condition of T = 2,7K (rests in relic radiation of the Big Bang ).
But, the relic radiation is extended and in the future will change and decrease.
What temperature can this radiation reach?
Not T=0K?
Hence, if we go into the past or into the present or into the future,
we can not escape from EMPTINESS- NOTHING .

Answer 5

One theory is, as has already been mentioned, the Big Crunch.

All matter is currentky expanding, following the Big Bang.

When the universe reaches a certain size, it will begin contracting - the Big Crunch.

The universe will eventually collapse in on itself, in one giant black hole.

This will cause the next Big Bang to create a new universe.

As to whether "God" created the unverse or not, is neither here nor there. This is a science forum, and can we limit answers to a scientific context.

Answer 6

There was nothing. As a matter of fact, there is still nothing. The sum of the parts of the "universe" is zero. Always has been, always will be. Think of the "universe" as an equation with an infinite nuber of terms. On one side of the equation, you have all the variables that make up the universe. On the other side, you have zero. The only reason that the reality we experience is defined is because we are defined as terms in this grand equation. As a term in the equation, we exist, not relative to the "true universe" (which is empty) but we exist only relative to the "universe" we can perceive, which is made up of the other terms in the equation. The whole concept is actually much more in depth than this. But I think you can get the jist of what I am saying from what I have outlined.

Answer 7

In the initial stage of the formation of the space,there was a very very big 'ball' of matter which pocessed a lot&alot of energy.The matter is nothing but the clouds,dust,etc,.the explosion of the 'ball' lead to the formation of the universe. All the matter is held together by some energy(dark energy).I think,before that there must be a super power that attracted all the matter just like the present dark holes.because of the pressure,it must have exploded just like the same.

Answer 8

The Big Bang is something that you have to believe in if you choose to. The proposed singularity is just as metaphysical as anything else.

Answer 9

The SMALL--bang jus jokin`. I really dont know

Answer 10

An Empty Space.
