Science has been able to trace existence back to about 275,000 years after the Big Bang (which in the course of 14,000,000,000 years is really almost back to the beginning). Physicists speculate that not only did the matter and energy begin at that point, but also time. Living in linear time, it is extremely difficult to get our heads around the concept, but before the Big Bang, there was no before. I'm still trying to understand this, but I've heard it said by several physicists, and it is apparently the standard thought within that field.
Sometimes I wish I were smarter. And sometimes I actually work on becoming so.

Stephen Hawking once said this question was like asking "What is North of the North Pole?" However, it is possible that our universe is one that repeats, such that eventually all the matter will contract and the big bang will occur over and over and over again. However, it's been a while since I checked, I do not know if this cosmological model is still in any favor.

It messes with time, so there probably isn't any such thing as "before the big-bang." Read "The Universe in a Nutshell" by Hawking to get a lot better description.

It hasn't happen it, when it will, New Jerusalem New Heavens new earth.
Peter II 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Revelation 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
comes after
Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

Time did not exist so there was no before the big bang.
God created time and space in the big bang when he said "Let there be light"

The big bang was the beginning of it all, there was no "before".
