Why didn't "Big Bang" that created the universe turn into a "black Hole" instead?

If all the material in the universe were concentrated in a small space just before the "Big Bang", why wouldn't the gravitational effects prevent light from escaping, thus creating a black hole instead of the explosion of the Big Bang?

    The short answer is that the big bang gets away with it because it is expanding rapidly near the beginning.The Schwarzschild solution of the gravitational equations is static and demonstrates the limits placed on a static spherical body before it must collapse to a black hole. The Schwarzschild limit does not apply to rapidly expanding matter.

    Check out the difference between IMPLODE AND EXPLODE - The big bang was an explosion of an imploded mass called the black hole. Fred Hoyle I think was the first one to hypothesise an occilating universe - which Expands till it is finally pulled back to the centre of gravity into a pinpoint black hole which then explodes and expands and the cycle is repeated.

    Our Universe is in the Expansion stage and perhaps one day will again collapse into the black hole it came from.

    Inherent instability of infinite mass. Once the big bang occurred a black hole formed at the point of origin of the big bang. It's the largest black hole in the universe with the most dense gravitational field.

    The earth was created by the supreme being and was not form spontaneous as some scientist believe in the Big Bang process.Since it has four fundamental forces namely,GRAVITATIONALLY,ELECTROMAGNETIC STRONG AND WEAK NUCLEAR FORCES,this four force is fine tuned such that it keep everything in place, if the earth was some metre closer all the gas and atmosphere will disappear and vice versa if it was farther away a bit.Because of the fine tuned fundamental force the earth is the only planet to sustain life.The black hole as found is equivalent to shinning light into darkness which prove the existence of spiritual being.Simply the theory of the big bang is untrue as many scientist has prove it wrong trying to create a big bang and sparking of life with ratio of proteins needed to make life...left and right proportion.

    I suppose because it was moving outward from the center too fast to be captured in the event horizon of the event. I think something moving directly away from the center cannot be captured the way approaching material can, but I sure don't have any scientific basis for my speculation. Or perhaps we are on the "other side" of that black hole, and it did in fact condense to a singularity just before (to the extent time means anything in this) it all went Bang.

    So where is Steven Hawking when we need him?

    Personally, I believe that the "big bang" was the Word from God's mouth. But from what I understand of theoretical physics, the big bang overcame the tremendous force of gravity when matter was trying to occupy the same space at the same time. Supposedly this explains how the universe was "vomited" into existence.

  • Black holes are created after stars die. The Big Bang was a whole bunch of atoms exploding. Go back to physics class.

    Such a very nice question. The big bang is a black hole run in reverse, and there's absolutely NO explanation for why that would happen, if it even actually did. I think the early 20th century physicists were still closet Christians who believed (unconsciously, as part of childhood conditioning) "Let there be light" from Genesis 1, and so they interpreted the Hubble Red Shift in that way. See references.

    In string theory all of the dimensions were condensed as well; therefore, the mass was in effect still spread out only in a smaller universe. The mass could not become a black hole because it was the universe not just part of it.

    Hi,

    If you search more greater details maybe a google search you find out exactly how big bang happened.

    It did not turn into a black hole, cause we have this universe. So something happened that cause that things.
