wtf happened before the big bang?

[Gatekeeper777]

isnt the sun suposed to blow up in 5 billion years?

yes but the milky way will still be here hurdling through space towards the vegan super cluster.
SOL and Earth dont mea fly shit on a univeral scale it exsisted before humanity and will after. right up untill the next BOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

do you really think mankind will still be around 5 billion years from now or beyond?

matter attracts gravitationally, not repel.

Right... I was thinking of Dark Energy

About 22% (of the universe) is thought to be composed of dark matter. The remaining 74% is thought to consist of dark energy.

Dark energy is a hypothetical form of energy that permeates all of space and tends to increase the rate of expansion of the universe.

That's from wikipedia... just thought I'd look it up right quick. Most of it's just theory though.

How do you do that quote thing saying who it's from?

Very slowly but very surely gravity is pulling everything back together again, eventually all matter will join a giant clump that will keep gaining density until it explodes out again like the last big bang

How do you know the planets aren't still moving from the big bang instead of being pulled back together?

Here's a theory I just pulled out from under my hat...

Perhaps universes are what happen at the singularity of black holes. Let's say our Big Bang was caused by the formation of a black hole. Everything that gets sucked into it from the other universe is... exploded into what we now call our universe. What do you think?

That could be but then you have to ask yourself how the matter from that other universe got there in the first place.

You hit the quote button at the bottom right hand side of the person's post. How did you quote the wikipedia thing?

Only thing that makes sense to me is some sort of Creator and we're the Creation.

by the banes hitting together.

Black holes. The original black hole was created once the nothingness grew too heavy and collapsed. Now there are an infinite number of black holes. How does nothing have weight? Because it once existed by itself. A lot of nothing would be needed to create a black hole.

Meh... it's as believable as religion in any case.

I'll definitely give you that. I just didn't completely understand what you were trying to say at first.

The Big Bang is the beginning of the Universe as we know it with our current laws of physics. What happened before that we don't know because we don't have the physics or any evidence to explain the before. We at this point can only tell what's happened since...there is a few theories like String/M Theory but there no way to prove/test those theories at present.

The universe is expanding, not contracting and it's speeding up. There isn't enough matter in the universe (not even enough dark matter) to reverse the universe and pull everything back. The universe will keep on expanding and eventually it will reach a point where there will be not enough of the appropriate gases to form stars, the universe will go dark.
