I guess I am born to be the klutz and ask ... so where was it all before that ... whatever 'that' may be?WASHINGTON (AP) — After the Big Bang, it was dark and cold. And then there was light. Now, for the first time, astronomers have glimpsed that dawn of the universe 13.6 billion years ago when the earliest stars were turning on the light in the cosmic darkness.
They theorize that it was shrunk to a tiny, though solid, particle. Space time did not exist until it banged. But anything before that is unknown. Somehow I imagine that particle floating in space, but apparently space didn't exist yet, was trapped in that particle without elbow room. The only way I can imagine a particle not floating in space, is to let to go a sense of there being an outside, only the particle, which must have felt infinite inside. But I'm willing to be incredibly wrong about that.
