What was around the singularity concurrent to it being a singularity and did that singularity emit or did it suck. And, can such a singularity exist in our current universe waiting to bang

Sometimes, when people cannot fathom or answer an issue, they turn to blind faith for that answer. That is not the scientific approach and, carried to extremes, such blind faith can lead to the Dark Ages when very little was done to advance mankind's knowledge.

That being said, string theory can lead one to conjecture about the pre-big bang. (I like your "big suck" idea by the way.) String theory conjectures the possibility of parallel null universes, devoid of observable mass-energy as we know it. Then, according to the theory, two of these big nothings collide. Since they have an eternity to do it in, one can even show (using simple probability) at least one such collision is likely over an infinity (eternal) number of attempts.

(If the concept of two "nothings" colliding gives you a headache, join the crowd. Nothing, however, is only nothing in our limited four dimensional observable universe. String theory goes up as high as eleven dimensions; so if these null universes exist in these higher dimensions, they would seem to be nothing to us because we cannot see beyond four dimensions.)

So two null universes collide. When they do, the collision releases a lot (I mean A LOT) of energy (and mass, its all a jumble in the beginning). That released energy-mass is what we on Earth now call the "big bang."

The last part of your question, re another big bang in our universe, is also a possibility according to string theory. There is no reason to limit our null universe to just one collision with another null universe. We can say "at least" one collision, because we live in one of the results.

But there could very well be others, where our null universe has collided with other null universes, and not necessarily the one our null collided with to create the observable universe we live in. Which brings up the possibility that other observable universes in our null universe might be totally different from our own.

We really have no way of knowing, since that would have occurred before our universe existed, and we can't test things that are outside the universe. But it's entirely possible that we can find out how the big bang occurred in the first place - the new particle accelerators coming on line in the next few years should answer a lot of questions.

There was nothing and nowhere outside the BB, not even vacuum, since there was (and still is) no boundary to be outside of in the first place. The BB entailed the introduction of matter and energy at all points in the universe simultaneously for unknown reasons. Because of the peculiar higher dimensional way that space curves in General Relativity, this is possible whether the universe is of finite volume or infinite (which is also not known). Finite *and* unbounded is not an oxymoron in GR. If you want to understand the BB, you must study GR until you can understand what that means first.

The "huge bang", as an explosion, could have an outer attain or decrease because it maintains to escalate. What s exterior of that should be the two unfilled, endless area or in simple terms an massive, countless nothingness. on the beginning up, that's reported that the universe grew to become into purely a tiny particle or something less demanding, yet is grew to become into something. If this grew to become into certainly the beginning up of each little thing and there grew to become into no "in the previous", how is it obtainable to have something from absolute nothingness? If a God made the universe, or each little thing, something had to make IT. Self arising out of complete and utter nothingness can t take place, can it? no remember what number multi universes or increasing and contracting ones or gods making gods and so on. and so on.... all of it has to boil right down to one beginning element, doesn t it? So, it s the two something out of no longer something or each little thing has in simple terms continuously been - no beginning up or end. Any clarification seems impossible, yet there must be one. ought to be the respond is so hassle-free, yet so unfathomable that we could by no ability come on the brink of wrapping our minds around it. actual, the (my) universe began whilst i grew to become into born and it will come to an end as quickly as I die, the rest is in simple terms information.

There is no such thing as 'before' the big bang, since time is part of our universe.

the thing is there was no big bang! it was just a couple of words
