Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum, and therefore feel absolutely free to correct me if I make any mistakes in posting or so forth.
​
Anyway, I wanted to ask something about the Big Bang theory that doesn't make any sense to me. As I understand, before the Big Bang actually occurred, the universe was compacted in an extremely dense point, which contained all our matter, space-time, etc.
My question is sort of paradoxial I guess, but how could this point radiate energy?
​
The thing is, all matter above 0 Kelvin radiates and absorbs energy of one kind or another right? So such a point must have been radiating infra-red, visible light, all kinds of radiation. But if there was no space-time outside of this point, how would that be possible?
​
I really am just curious on this, and any more information on the specifics of Big Bang theory in general would be appreciated.
