Good question - The Big Bang is a philosophical idea and doesn't have the answers.
As one evolutionist wrote:
Big bang cosmology is probably as widely believed as has been any theory of the universe in the history of Western civilization. It rests, however, on many untested, and in some cases untestable, assumptions. Indeed, big bang cosmology has become a bandwagon of thought that reflects faith as much as objective truth.

The term 'big bang' was first coined by Fred Hoyle in a radio broadcast in 1950. Hoyle was talking about the two major theories on the origins of the universe. He himself supported a theory known as 'The Steady State Theory.' The second theory or model at this point was known as 'The Dynamic Evolving Model.' He was telling listeners about how, according to this model, the universe started a finite time ago in a single huge explosion. He then said 'Now, this Big Bang idea ...' Apparently, he meant to use the term as a means of making the theory sound untenable but the name stuck.

Contrary to (the apparent) popular belief, Earth was NOT created by the Big Bang.

It wasn't a bang or explosion - it was an expansion of all the matter in the universe. And it took a long time after that to get around to the Earth - the universe is 13.7 billion years old, and the Earth is only 4.6 billion years old.

An older theory is that the earth was supported on the back of a great turtle, but 'big bang' aliterates nicely and so has become more fashionable

Singularities and suchlike. Try reading A Brief History Of Time by Stephen Hawkin. Bits of it are actually understandable. Boy I wish I was smarter! Although I suppose logically as galaxies are moving away from each other, if you go backwards through time far enough they eventually all end up in the same place.

Univers is the expansion after the big bang, it used to be a compressed form of a small matter until it explode into expansion of the space.

Mass created by energy particles were there with infinite density that intensified the heat inside the mass to a critical level to cause a nuclear explotion.

At the beginning there was nothing but emptiness in nowhere.
the only thing that existed were two tiny particles. These two particles fused together and suddenly, out came the biggest bang the universe would ever experience. What came out was dust, particles and gas. And strangely time. Time was born so that means time will never live and will die one day. meaning it will evaporate into nothing.
