Space and stuff

I've got a, well, way of explaining, or rather trying to do so, for this.

Think of having an enclosed space with growing heat, but with limitations on it's expanding - like a balloon. Fill this balloon with firecrackers and marbles, for example (or just really dense objects), and let said balloon roam free on the floor of a room, being blown about by vents or something, or being moved by something. Don't look inside the room, until you hear your hypothetically ever-expanding balloon pop - walk in and you'll see the floor is covered with marbles (or your dense objects), yet you can't pinpoint EXACTLY where it popped. This is what is meant by "it happened everywhere at once" - because everything was inside it, it happened to everything at the same time.

And then it took thousands of years for the first neutral atoms to be formed, and the rest is widely covered here/anywhere else probably.

That's my take on the thing, at least, sorry if it's super lame...

i understand that, but in this case, like the spark.... where did the firecracker and marbles come from??

Well your "balloon" was already "filled" with dense objects/matter, it was all there.

The firecracker is due to the fact that your dense objects didn't stop expanding and, at one point, became bigger than the balloon could hold, thus popping it.

And it could've happened again within our universe.

And again within that universe.

etc.
 
I find all this Big Bang stuff batters my head. Facinating stuff but I was never big into science, I only remember the nutter in the class who liked putting his head in a lit bunsen burner. I do like Mass Effect though, and I too thought whilst playing the first game that this would be rather good if real, although the reapers are a bit of a problem.

Hence giant red hot marbles hurtling towards earth all the time, Christ Duality you,ve nailed it kid......

We're doomed i tells ya, DOOMED!
