In fact, scientists think that the Big Bang did not happen at a single location in space. It occurred everywhere at once. This is a challenging concept to grasp, but Arthur Eddington offered an ...

A theory holds that dark matter could be involved in a mirror universe and that runs backwards before the Big Bang.

Researchers are using supercomputer simulations grounded in Einstein’s relativity to test scenarios about what may have ...

What if the Big Bang wasn’t truly the beginning? A team of cosmologists is using the power of supercomputers to push past the ...

Asking what existed before the Big Bang is often dismissed as meaningless, since traditional physics breaks down when pushed ...

The evidence for the Big Bang is overwhelming, but we cannot describe what goes on in that event. We can’t accurately call it ...
