Here we have ths standard big bang scenario.
Stupid question, Why would the universe only go one direction rather than in all directions?
Here the quantum corrections have revealed that the Universe did not begin at T=0 of the big bang, but emerged from an earlier time. This enlarged Universe may well have been eternal, stretching back infinitely into the past...
This one makes sense.
'time' as continuing outside the Universe, 'before' its existence.
Why would time as we know it have to exist in eternity if it was just one great big now?
Enjoyed the input.
