what existed before time/bigbang?

Answer 1

There are theorys about what was there but thats all they are is theorys, in all do respect man can not imagine what existed before the big bang,, No matter what the human mind trys to imagine it always comes back to something weather it was blackness which is something or if its a vacum its still something, Just think about it, each thing you try to imagine that was there always comes back to something, You will find physisits who will try to explain it but they learn thru their studies and thats all assumption too, So have a good time trying to imagine what nothingness is,, you simply can not imagine it,

Answer 2

The Flying Spaghetti Monster

Answer 3

That question is debated by physicists constantly. The bigger question is was there time before the big bang? If, however you are only wondering about matter, theories range from nothing to that there was a collision of alternate universes from which matter was infused into our physical universe in the form of matter and antimatter and that for some unknown reason the matter survived while the antimatter* did not.

Answer 4

The Big Bang is often thought as the start of everything, including time, making any questions about what happened during it or beforehand nonsensical. Recently scientists have instead suggested the Big Bang might have just been the explosive beginning of the current era of the universe, hinting at a mysterious past.

To see how far into history one might gaze, theoretical physicist Martin Bojowald at Pennsylvania State University ran calculations based on loop quantum gravity, one of a number of competing theories seeking to explain how the underlying structure of the universe works.

Past research suggested the Big Bang was preceded by infinite energies and space-time warping where existing scientific theories break down, making it impossible to peer beforehand. The new findings suggest that although the levels of energy and space-time warping before the Big Bang were both incredibly high, they were finite.

Scientists could spot clues in the present day of what the cosmos looked like previously. If evidence of the past persisted after the Big Bang, its influence could be spotted in astronomical observations and computational models, Bojowald explained.

However, Bojowald also figures some knowledge of the past was irrevocably lost. For instance, the sheer size of the present universe would suppress precise knowledge of how the universe changed in size before the Big Bang, he said.

"It came as a big surprise that some properties of the universe before the Big Bang may have only such a weak influence on current observations that they are practically undetermined," Bojowald said of findings detailed online July 1 in the journal Nature Physics.

One implication of this "cosmic forgetfulness," as Bojowald calls it, is that history does not repeat itself-the fundamental properties of the current era of the universe are different from the last, Bojowald explained. "It's as if the universe forgot some of its properties and acquired new properties independent of what it had before," he told SPACE.com.

"The eternal recurrence of absolutely identical universes would seem to be prevented by the apparent existence of an intrinsic cosmic forgetfulness," he added.

These findings differ from a cyclic model of the cosmos from cosmologist Paul Steinhardt at Princeton and theoretical physicist Neil Turok at Cambridge, which envisions an infinite series of Big Bangs preceding our universe caused by additional membranes or "branes" of reality perpetually colliding and bouncing off each other. Steinhardt said he felt Bojowald's calculations were concrete, but needed further elaboration to include the interplay of different kinds of matter and radiation.

Cosmologist Carlo Rovelli at the Center of Theoretical Physics in Marseilles, France, found it "remarkable" that the new work could delve past the Big Bang. He added the work had to lead to predictions that could be compared to cosmological observations "in order to become credible."

time is a thing invented by humans to keep track of their lives and goings on !! in the old days if you wanted something done, you had to wait for whoever to turn up to do it whenever they turned up.So they invented clocks and other time pieces to keep track. it is my opinion that the big bang was just another event in the eternal circle of things. it will help if you look at all things in our lives,the sun is a ball as are all the planets in our solar system.the all have circular'ish orbits and our milky way is a swirling galaxy of circles and round objects,
if you go the other way and look at the smallest ,atoms are made of protons and nutrons orbiting a neucleus all circular.so in my opinion before the big bang i think it was mutch the same as now exept the beings of that time did something rong and caused the total destruction of their univers.and it all started again after that ,(circle of life)
sorry if this is boring but its an answer .
this answer is all based on science fact and history .

Answer 6

The "easiest" way to answer this question is:

There was no BEFORE, before the "big bang".

Time (like energy and matter and anything else) began to exist with the energy. Before the universe materialised, time itself did not exist.

Of course, those who are proposing the M-theory against the Big Bang theory, have a different viewpoint. For them a Universe (capital U) has always existed within which subspaces exist: some 14 billion years ago, something happened in the multi-dimensional (up to 11 dimensions, depending on which version of the theory) Universe that created our 3-dimensional universe (small u). Could be a collision of 2 sub-spaces (called membranes or 'branes).

---

Time was created so that not everything happened at once.
Space was created so that it did not all happen to you.

Answer 7

This is clearly is not a question of science as it is outside the bounds of human empirical knowledge, as no one could even understand the concepts of a beginning or end. In order to understand sometime there has to be its before and after, even most inanimate and solid objects that do not seem to be moving or changing in time cause activity in our imagination as we investigate them for the nature. But when there is something for which there is no contextual limitations for understanding and no referential connection anywhere present in the mind we would not be able to consider that thing within the domains of our experience and therefore in the grasp of our knowledge.

In such cases, where our efforts to understand something empirically or experientially comes to no conclusion but the question still persists, we might like to try deductive approach and see what pure logic do for us.

We could take your question, for instance – what existed before Big Bang? This is the question expressing your wonder about the world that your are in right now; that it is the nature of this world, and not the world before this world, before Big Bang, that you have sense of wonder about all things that you do not see directly but in the context of the ‘the world after the Big Bang’. Then we can say that before the Big Bang there exited the answer to your question, alongside answers to all questions that we may have in this world! Or there was an absolute answer to everything that we have now in form of an infinite number of questions.

Everything was clear to us until the great error in mankind that manifested itself and cause abstraction of knowledge and understand. The answer was the absolute unity of our entire mind into on single state of being enlightened by the light of the Supreme.

Islam is an exceedingly fragile concern. Muslims be attentive to that if absolutely everyone unearths out what they even have self assurance, they could be outcast everywhere, so as that they are comfortable attempting to guard the front that they placed forth. Muslims say one concern on your face and at the back of your decrease back are scoffing you and asserting the different. in case you think of Islam is a faith of peace, seem at this from the e book the affection and savor and stick to: that's ISLAM, THE SO referred to as "faith OF PEACE:" "Kill the unbelievers anyplace you detect them.” Koran 2:191 “Make conflict on the infidels living on your community.” Koran 9:123 “while risk arises, kill the infidels anyplace you capture them.” Koran 9:5 “Any faith different than Islam isn't ideal.” Koran 3:80 5 “The Jews and the Christians are perverts; combat them.”... Koran 9:30 “Maim and crucify the infidels in the event that they criticize Islam” Koran 5:33 “Punish the unbelievers with clothing of hearth, hooked iron rods, boiling water; soften their epidermis and bellies.” Koran 22:19 “The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to combat them.” Koran 8:sixty 5 “Muslims shouldn't take the infidels as pals.” Koran 3:28 “Terrorize and behead people who have self assurance in scriptures different than the Qur’an.” Koran 8:12 “Muslims could muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels.” Koran 8:60 What area of "KILL" will we individuals no longer comprehend. Wake-up do a sprint diagnosis people! Political correctness may be the autumn of this massive u . s .! Muhammad develop right into a terrorist, no longer a god, no longer a prophet, yet a plagiarist that chosen the MOON GOD from the different 365 gods the Arabs have been worshiping and terrorized them into accepting his theory of what god develop into or die. His followers are doing an identical concern at present to something of the international.

Answer 9

Before the big band the universe was in the size of a pea. As gases and other things began to expand this pea size also expanded. And the evolution of planets,glaxies and every celestial object took place.
