Was there anything before the Big Bang?

In this captivating exploration of cosmic origins, we delve beyond the familiar narrative of the Big Bang. Renowned physicist Professor Brian Cox and theoretical physicist Professor Brian Greene guide us through the enigmatic realms of inflation, time, and parallel universes.
Professor Brian Cox's Insight
Before the explosive birth of our universe, there existed a phase called inflation-an epoch of exponential expansion. Imagine a universe smaller than an atom doubling in size faster than we can fathom. In less than a million million million million million million of a second, it ballooned into the vastness we now observe. But what ignited inflation? What halted it? These questions remain tantalizingly unanswered.
⏳ Professor Greene's Contemplation: Time's Essence
As we transition from cosmic growth to metaphysical musings, Professor Greene invites us to question time itself. Could the Big Bang mark not only our universe's birth but also the inception of time? Or does time extend infinitely, echoing across an eternal stage?
Join us on this cosmic odyssey-a quest that leaves us with more questions than answers, yet fuels our insatiable curiosity. 🌠🚀

I suspect there was a quiet moan before the big bang, .... "messing up my Library AGAIN"

Thank you for sharing this make believe fantasy that's impossible to know! I'm squealing!

Why do you think it’s make believe? This explanation matches our observations. Do you know something about cosmology that the world’s cosmologists don’t?
And how do you know that there will never come a day when we find conclusive evidence? People like you have said that about thousands of phenomena that used to be a mystery and are now fully explained?
