2 -- History of the Universe Made Easy (Part 2)

Perhaps, but I wouldn't be happy. It would just be a classic case of "god of the gaps".

thank you for this series

The funny thing is, that our universe CAN be created from nothing as long as the sum of all energy&matter in the universe is zero. (the sum of it is still nothing)

We can measure the curvature of the universe and current measurements show that the universe might be "flat".
A flat universe means, that there is no energy or matter in it that could curve spacetime.

"Where is your god now?" :)

Rodrigo is awesome! Always great to hear. :-D

man, i thought god did it. boy was i wrong. listen up theist. no majic man in this vid

So, "before the "bang" (considering time and space,and therefore the notion "before" and "after" are the one´s who enable us to understand the principle of "begining") there was energy, matter (cos everything is matter one way or another-even the space vacumn is matter). And it is there, whithout "was", "is" and "will be" (sice this notions only exist because we have the ability to elaborate significance to them).
That is the best i can dthink of, when reflecting upon this questions:)

Chaos and order in my mind are all the same. Before the "bang", there was something, which was nothing to us before we have born and will be nothing after we die, but it always exist. It is energie, matter, and matter cannot be created or destroyed. It just "is". Our mind is not ready to full understand this implication, but for me, ha is the natural path to trying to understand some of this complex stuff. people have to read a little William Blake to get a better picture:).

Wonderful attempt to explain complex theory in simple words..!
Have read and understood quite a few books and theoretical articles on Creation - but none has explained things so easy ... even a layman can understand it easily..!
If I can make a suggestion... you have referred to Big Bang as "explosion" at a couple of places ... it should have been "expansion" - to be more precise.
(If you deliberately said so to make it more phathomable for a normal listener... that is OK.!)

this was awesome. thank you.

ignorant...
