Overview
Explore three compelling hypotheses about what existed before the Big Bang in this 17-minute educational video. Delve into the Lambda-CDM model, the cyclic universe theory, and the concept of a multiverse arising from eternal inflation. Examine the intriguing possibility of a universe emerging from nothing, supported by quantum mechanics principles. Learn why answering the question of pre-Big Bang existence remains challenging due to the limitations of current physics at the singularity. Gain insights into cutting-edge cosmological theories and their implications for our understanding of the universe's origins.
