RE: What Existed Before The Bing Bang?
Great article @sauravrungta!
It all comes down to observation...if we can't observe something then does it exist?????
We can't observe anything before the big bang, so technically time only started at this piont...at least for this reality. We can't truly define events before the big bang because we can't observe them and therefore measure them.
Yes, it seems like time started at the moment of the big bang. But I disagree that if we can't observe something, it doesn't exist. For example, we cannot observe dark matter and dark energy but we do know that they exist.
Yeah good point on dark energy and matter, you could also throw something like magnetism in there too.
When I say observe I mean not just in the sense of visually but in terms of measurement of its effects. Directly and indirectly. As far as I'm aware we can't measure anything that predated the big bang....only from that point forward.
