Thank you. The Buddha said, “If you count the total number of sand particles at the depths of the Ganges river, from where it begins to where it ends at the sea, even that number will be less than the number of passed Kalpas.” - Epstein, Ronald (2003): The Buddhist Text Translation Society. Everything would come back to a center of gravity according to General Relativity. Likely, there were no antimatter in the beginning of our universe to annihilate with matter. And probably, the extra photons in the universe showed by CMB radiation are remnants of previous universes.

So, could it be explained like a fractal equation? Cyclic by scale? From a small enough perspective, perhaps those "particles" being created and destroyed out of seemingly nothing, are entire universes coming and going on different size and time scales.

[@Cosmoknowledge]

Or maybe just interactions with other universes. There are just so many theories, but that the universe is strange, ooh that's for sure.

Thank you! ❤

[@jacksonhudson7711]

What if every black hole ate it all up then ate each other then released it all back out? I’m not smart enough to understand something coming out of nothing. But I do feel every now and then no matter what situation I’m in or when it happened I weirdly feel like I’ve been here and done this before. As if I’m remembering a cycle, & sometimes I feel I changed something by remembering it because I would stop and do something else cause I remembered what I did last time. It’s weird. Anyone else ever feel like that?

[@ivanscissorhands2008]

Wow, i'm out of words...

I have a question for someone. A proton can only contain so much energy before energy is released as a photon. How did all the matter and energy in the universe fit inside an area the size of a pea? I've heard people say that it was all crammed inside an area the size of a pea. A proton is mostly empty space, but that space is limited to how much energy it is able to contain. So where did all the energy and matter in the universe come from if it cannot be created, cannot be destroyed and it wasn't crammed in an area the size of a pea? Don't tell me God did it.

[@Cosmoknowledge]

No one knows. I see wisdom in people that are comfortable admitting what they don't know. That's the best answer at the moment. But we are getting there.

[@Anton_Gress]

The more I hear, read and watch about big bang the more I think that big bang theory doesn’t make even a tiny sense

[@KingBritish]

Interesting. Something somehere along the line has to be infinite and always of been there

[@Cosmoknowledge]

I guess so. I think it's just a matter of how we see infinity.

I have a little unexplained hypothesis, as we cant find the end point of a circle in 2d, of a sphere in 3d, we also can't find the start or end of time in 4d. Dont laugh if im telling a foolish story.

[@adityagunjal1951]

It depends on where we *define* the start and end of something. For a 3d being 2d objects have end. Same goes for 3d when you are in 4d, so on. But at some point we define the initial of something (like the x,y of circle's intial point). But time itself depends upon how we experience it or define it. This all gets out of common sense after a point.

When I clicked on the video, I was really looking forward to how this question would be addressed. Unfortunately, I am walking away unsatisfied. 4:54 "In the Planck Epoch, our ordinary understanding of space and time breaks down, so we can't any longer rely on our ordinary understanding of cause and effect." These two big claims (especially the latter) are pretty huge, and it seems that it is not addressed even remotely adequately. The latter portion of 8:22 until about 9:11, aren't particularly helpful, either, especially when talking about the "hot" state being produced from the "cold" state in some "non-causal way." Then to use language of "grounded in" or "realized" or "emerges from," seems like nothing more than some linguistic party trick which still just means "cause." Sure, the script does acknowledge that at our limits, there are difficulties with these questions, but I find the attempt here falling way shorter than I expected. I did take a look at the original article, too, and as a credit to your channel, you adapted it well for the video, and the visuals are very well-done. I realize that since the video is being ripped from the article, there is only so much you can do to potentially expand upon two of the issues I've stated above. But the article ultimately is just as unsatisfying. The majority of this video and the original article are more about how something comes from "almost nothing" and not simply "nothing."

[@Cosmoknowledge]

Thank you so much for this feedback. Criticism drives progress and makes science beautiful. I really do appreciate it.

I wrote a 6 part series of books last year called SECRET UNIVERSE by Ron Kemp. I explained in the books how everything came to be from practically nothing. The entire book series is based on the action causing gravity inside of matter and explains everything from the beginning to now. I've even explained the hot rings around radioactive stars, planets and moons and so much more. I figured out where the Earth's water came from. I've explained why none of the other planets in our solar system have liquid water. How did I do all that? I discovered that general relativity was incomplete and set out to fix it. I fixed his equations and now the equations are able to explain all the observations. I know, it sounds too good to be true. But I did. Simply put, there is something rather than nothing in the universe because energy and matter can be created but cannot be destroyed. The laws of physics and theories of gravity are drastically incomplete and need to be fixed. Spoiler alert, nothing is able to fall into a black hole, not even light. Supermassive black holes in the cores of galaxies are the energy and matter engines creating the universe one galaxy at a time. This is why nothing can fall into them. They are the God like creators of all the energy, matter, space and time throughout the universe. I figured out what causes galaxies to accelerate up to and beyond 1.4 million miles per hour pinned on dark matter. I figured out what causes the expansion of space and the accelerated expansion of space pinned on dark energy. I explain in detail what this all means and more. My books will not disappoint you like this video did. My latest book BIG BANG: Fact or Fiction? by Ron Kemp is now available.

@@Cosmoknowledge I appreciate the gracious response to what I would consider to be tough criticism. I tried to be constructive, even if I cannot propose a more specific solution myself (if I knew it, I wouldn't need to watch this video!). Here's to hoping for better things ahead.

[@rfdekwant3627]

My science teacher said this: Nothing does not exist. Everything has an ending and beginning. The end also has a beginning. When something dies particles are left over. Those particles form new beginnings of something else. It is endless circle of died, reuse and new forming. Before our universe there was also universe, which has died, its particles have been reformed to allow birth of new universe. This is also going to happen when our universe dies. This process goes on forever. There was no beginning to this process, it's the way it is. There is no end to this either. The end of everything comes for you when you die. That's the only ending that's really the end, but also your particles are reused and reshaped. This will never answer everything. It is not possible to answer everything because many things are just the way they are. It is also not possible to know everything about how it works. Because you and everything around you are part of everything

[@Theguywhoasked001]

The big bounce theory might be correct, i prefer the big freeze theory though

[@Cosmoknowledge]

I loved this! ❤

[@shelwincornelia2498]

Something out of nothing can only be possible if that which we refer to as nothing, is not really nothing. Nothing on the outside doesn't mean nothing on the inside. In the same way we are conscious from the inside, cosmic was conscious on the inside. With consciousness comes the natural desire for it to experience itself which has been at the basis of the manifestation of the mind which manifests the universe. How could consciousness posess a natural will that can not be accomplished?

[@Cosmoknowledge]

There are some things that we try to answer now, but we simply don't know. And I think more people need to feel comfortable with the "I don't know" answer.

[@shelwincornelia2498]

We won't know the mistery of the existence of the universe if we don't know that of our own existence and that's because both would be solved only when we finally succeeed in understanding the mistery of our own consciousness which is at the basis of everything.

[@sulphuroxide1]

The singularity or the big back could not have been a point of infinite energy, this don't make sense, if it was infinite then at the time of the big bang, it must have hit some sort of a limit to trigger the big bang. If it was infinite then it would never change state as its infinite. So if its state didn't change then why would it bang

[@realherbalism1017]

I don't want to sound religious & I'm not a practicing member of any faith by the way, but what you end up with is a primordial "something" that has the qualities of being infinite, omnipotent, omnipresent & most likely omniscient. Does that sound familiar to you? Some might argue the omniscient part but let me make a general point. We know you cannot get something from nothing & therefore if it exists, it must be inherent in the universe itself at least in some basic primordial form. Ergo, since consciousness exists, it must be inherent in the universe itself & therefore the universe must be conscious, therefore, it is also omniscient. I hate to break it to the die-hard physicists here, but this knowledge has already been around for at least 2300 years. It is the same concept as the platonic ONE. Guess what, these are the same concepts of renaissance magic, which coincidentally, modern science derived from. So you have literally come full circle & either have to admit there might be something to renaissance magic after all (which those magicians would swear was real by experimentation) or live in cognitive dissonance. I know, I know, I'm going to have some people say, "You can win a million dollars by going to the skeptics, et al", bullshit. As someone who has experimented with magic ( & it does work), it has to be performed under exacting conditions either solo or with like minded people. The reason is because consciousness & thought are the prime initiators of it. If you are trying to perform magic in front of people who are already skeptics, their thoughts are antithetical to the experiment & thus crush the fetal beginnings of the magic. All one has to do to find out for themselves if it's real or not is experiment with it honestly. Neither believe or disbelieve, just give room to see what happens. If you're using the right material I think you'll be flabbergasted at the results.

There are many universes

[@Cosmoknowledge]

Maybe. Just maybe.

[@jettmthebluedragon]

Their are so many things humans don’t understand 😑we think we live in a open universe but our models prefer a sphere model 😑meaning the universe could possibly be closed but humans can’t accept that fact after all it’s like if you take a random human and but them on a flat road in Kansas with no hills no nothing you would assume the world is flat but in nature it’s not 😐it’s only Beacuse of what humans see but that does not mean it’s true on how nature works 😑in fact I have found a pattern in life between creation and extinction 😐as earth puts it life finds a way and how can this be the end of everything? i personally was born in 1999 I had many chances to be whatever I wanted to be whatever I wanted to be but some how out of all times I was born in 1999 a very specific year so the question is ware was I before 1999? well most people would say I did not exist 😑and I know that but I mean REALLY deep ware was I ? 😐do how can just be the end of everything? 😐if this is the end everyone would have the same opinion but that’s not the case everyone was born different razed differently 😑 no one sees the universe 100% the same and before 1999 how come I was not the maker of ford or Pontiac? Or whatever? you could say it’s by chance but it seems to be more then just chance 😑I don’t know but saying this is the end or the beginning seems kind of bias 😑my guess is when we die we dream well not the way you expect like a computer we will live in a place ware science can’t reach or understand or measure 😑we become energy ourselfs but we will stay dead WAY longer then we are alive we will give up we will think it’s the end of everything but the more you learn about the darkness you will forget the past because in your mind you will think to yourself that forgetting the past and learning within darkness Beacuse you will think their is nothing left eventually you will forget. you might still be alive by your spirit energy you can pray all you want that I wanted to be a different animal or be born in a different point in time but that’s not how it works it seems to be very specific and if something happens to your parents like if one of them dies or marries someone else the new time loop will change and you will not exist within that universe but Beacuse who you are your soul will be transferred to a different universe Beacuse what you do in real world like your hobbies and experience in the real world could determine ware will you go don’t if nature has teaches me anything is don’t expect anything the reason why you exist is by your PHYSICAL life but even so while space it’s self may be infinite but the universe is not after all their are more infinite possibilities then just only one the more you think deep about it but as nature has teach me anything don’t expect anything you could possibly see your family again or not. It does not just determine what your energy is good bad or neutral you have but also your experiences on what you do in the real world 😐in life you take risks if my life was in a loop I would not remember anything from my previous timeline if this was the end of everything my life would be random. But it does not feel like it 😑but my brain is very limited the art of space and time and the creation and destruction of the universe has a story and the forces of nature have way more experience then what humans know 😐

@@Cosmoknowledge sure thing 🙂also like Tim Samaris Steven hawking as well and anyone from the past they no long live in the real world 😐their physical body will still exist but ware they go is they go into the matrix after all in death you can’t anything 😑no matter what the only thing that you take in death is all your experiences you had in life 😐 and nothing more 😑so ware is Steven hawkings? As well as everyone else who died in the past ? 😐well they are in the matrix a place ware science cant measure or understand is a mysterious force of nature 😐and if you think about it 😐everyone and everything is made from Star stuff made with basic elements like stars and based on what we see in the real world their is a possible chance that same organism will live again in the future 🙂( in my book experience out ranks everything ) Captain Rex
