Was There a Universe Here Before Ours? The Big Bang vs the Big Bounce
The universe might've started with a bounce instead of a bang, but what exactly would this bouncing universe look like? These New Black Holes Challenge Our ...
==========
Forget the Big Bang… we might have had the Big Bounce instead! The Big Bounce hypothesis says that before the universe as we know it today had formed, there was a universe here before us. It disappeared before we arrived in something called the Big Crunch. And from there it created such an immense amount of density and extreme temperatures that it caused an inversion effect meaning it went from the big crunch right into expansion, and formed the universe as we know it today--no point of singularity, no Big Bang required. This is referred to as the bounce. If our universe formed through a bounce instead of a Big Bang then maybe some of what exists in the current universe today has already existed in a previous one! The bounce hypothesis arose from our understanding of black holes. It all...
