'Big Bang' is an 'Event'. Can a human brain figure out the 'Cause' for it?

In this Cosmos, no 'event' can happen without a 'cause' and without the involvement of some sort of 'energy'. After the Big Bang event, a large amount of energy is released, but what is the 'cause'? Is it that the extremely hot 'point' became unstable and hence exploded?

    Visualize a black hole as a whirlpool where everything that gets beyond the event horizon, including light, gets sucked in and comes out in another universe. Then turn the black hole inside out so that it becomes a white hole where stuff from another universe comes out and creates this universe. This is my own theory, and I know that a real black is far more three and four dimensional than a whirlpool.

    The proof that it DID happen is the cosmic microwave background radiation at 2.73 degrees Kelvin. It's a THEORY, not a(n) hypothesis, with evidence that it did happen.

    First of all, on a quantum scale, things do can happen without a cause!

    The current problem with physics is that no one has been able to combine gravity (general relativity) with quantum theory. String theiory is considered to be a candidate, but experimental verification of that theory is currently impossible and hence the theory does not yet qualify as a "physics theory".

    Secondly, if the geometry of our universe is of a specific variety (namely flat) , then the total energy of the universe in the past and today is zero! This is because in such a geometry the positive energy (mc^2) is exactly balanced by the negative energy of gravitation. Gravitational energy is negative because if you want to separate two masses the force needed is less and less the further you separate them.

    There are a number of problems with the Big Bang model and hence, any explanation of it's origin which also defies the known laws of physics. 96 percent of the universe is made up of dark matter and dark energy which have as yet not been fully understood and would impact the calculations for a Big Bang. Dark flow is another phenomena which has been observed...some force or object is drawing many galaxies at great speeds to a point outside of the visible universe. Since this dark flow was not predicted by the Big Bang model and we have no way of observing what it is or whether it does exist in this universe or some external universe, it also poses a problem for any calculations as to how the Big Bang occurred or if indeed it did occur as suggested. Dark Flow also has ramifications as to whether much of the universe has already been swallowed up by it and is no longer there...the light rays from objects we see in space took many years to get here....we do not have reliable timely information as to what;s going on out there right now....the distances are too vast. Intergalactic shadows also seem to suggest the Big Bang model is inaccurate and CMB is thought by some to be simply the normal background radiation one would expect from the objects in space and not necessarily from a Big Bang origin....CMB was more of a retrodiction to fit the values needed and is not a prediction of a Big Bang.

    There are other issues as to the constancy of the speed of light or how it acts at quantum levels. Scientists have been able to demonstrate that the speed of light can be increased many times under controlled lab experiments and this would alter our understanding of Einsteinian relativity.We don't as yet fully understand what gravity is and how it works under all situations. Quantum theories of elementary particles suggest that they can be altered simply by the act of observing them and some physicists like John Wheeler have suggested that an unobserved universe is impossible. The universe exists because we exist to observe it. The Anthropic Principle also suggests that the universe is too finely tuned for life to exist to have been caused by purely random chance....many of the fundamental constants in nature are too finely tuned on a razor's edge for a chance origin.

    Some have suggested that our universe is basically a hologram projected from a higher level of reality. Quantum theories which suggest that nothing can become something or particles can suddenly pop into existence merely beg the question...is nothing really nothing or is nothing something? If particles can indeed travel faster than light, can they pop into existence at other points in space that we think is nothing?

    The Big Bang model is simply based on a few basic observations and the supposed winding back of the clock of it's expansion to a singular point in time and space when all matter and energy were supposedly compressed or originated. Yet this winding back of the clock to a singularity seems to have some problems which have as yet to be resolved. Without doing that, we have no way of understanding how it originated...let alone how the universe really operates..or what makes up the entire universe...or if an outside universe or multiverse exists.

    Anthropic Principle.......

    "The universe is the way it is because we have evolved within it. Wheeler even suggests that a universe in which life has failed to evolve is a failed universe. And he has come to believe that a universe constructed so that life did not evolve within it could not have come into existence in the first place.

    Wheeler calls this the principle of observership. It is an extension of the quantum idea that without an observer there is no subatomic physics. For Wheeler we live in an observer-dependent, participatory universe. All physical laws are dependent upon the presence of an observer to formulate them.

    In fact, he has suggested that this principle leads to the idea that the laws of physics are themselves a counter to the primordial nothing... total entropy. A universe without an observer is not a universe at all."

    If the vast Bang befell, there are option possibilities, then it grew to become right into a organic adventure. asserting some thing is unknowable relegates as achieveable particularly properly worth pondering. in case you have been attempting to envision against the regulation and desperate that there grew to become into one possibility that grew to become into available yet you are able to desire to never comprehend, clarify or instruct it then you incredibly could be a enormously undesirable detective in case you ordinary it over all the different possibilities. there is no longer something incorrect with human beings having faith, yet to attempt and make faith stand up to the approach that scientific concept is going via to be shown is unrealitistic. i've got faith that they are very seperate varieties of expertise.

    big bang is a misnamed slow silent event ... in reality it is only a hypothesis, an idea based on known scientific principles ... there is no concrete proof yet if it really happened, only circumstantial evidence ... when it is proven true then scientists can start working on the cause ...

    it is a theory......my theory is we are an electron buzzing around a proton that is attached to a cell that cell is apart of a human body where there are billions of cells then there are 6 billion humans with as many cells and that's us ....that's where we are in the cosmos can our brain figure out the cause.....?i think not.....but any thing is possible.

    Yes. The 'cause' had energy from the pressure of gravity that caused it to explode.

    it seems like they are doing ok, last there was one article about the big bang in indian express.
