How could first big-bang explode?

[Ben Dhyan]

Nothing.

So this is the nothing that science says exists.....prove it exists?

 

[Ben Dhyan]

I heard that it was more of a expansion than an explosion ?.

Whatever...into what is it expanding?

 

[psychoslice]

Whatever...into what is it expanding?

Into itself.

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Expanding into what Ben?
You do realise that writing 'expanding into non-spatial nothingness' would be easier to read if you write it ; "Not expanding into anything."?

But you say that nothing is on the other side of the big bang expansion bubble, then it follows that the big band is expanding into nothing...

Exactly. Well done. I knew we would get there eventually.

The nothing science says exists? Sorry, but that is not a legible sentence.

Just write it; Nothing.

Just a more verbose way of explaining the same thing as the WordWeb dictionary ....a theory is merely an explanation that has passed peer review...but that does not mean it is true..

But what has this really got to do with the OP.....how did the big bang begin? So how about providing an explanation of how all the energy and mass of the universe come from nothing? And secondly, is big bang science able to prove the existence of nothing?

You put explicit emphasis on non-verification, our definitions are pretty different.

The OP asks what it expands into and in the title asks how could it explode, technically not directly asking how it began but how it could

The theory doesn't actually say there was "nothing".

 

[Ben Dhyan]

What energy Ben? The sum total energy of the universe is zero.

Then why did the big bang begin at all, and why is the big bang bubble expanding?

 

[The Enlightened One]

Can science create the condition at time zero of the big bang expansion?

And where was all this big bang energy coming from?

No and we wish we knew

But there are numerous big bang believers here that I have been debating the issue with, who say the science says there is nothing...a non-spacial nothing....if you want to jump on my side...go ahead...

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Ahh.... a breath of fresh air....this is the magical rabbit out of the hat trick that needs to be answered....and it never will be because only nothing can come from nothing...

 

[Bunyip]

Then why did the big bang begin at all, and why is the big bang bubble expanding?

Why would it need a motive Ben? Why are you applying a motive to a cosmological event? How did that make sense to you?

 

[Ben Dhyan]

The nothing science says exists? Sorry, but that is not a legible sentence.

Just write it; Nothing.

So how did all this universe emerge from nothing?

 

[psychoslice]

Is there such things as nothing ?.

 

[Bunyip]

So how did all this universe emerge from nothing?

Well there was a rapid expansion Ben. Sort of a large explosion - a kind of big BANG!

 

[Bunyip]

Is there such things as nothing ?.

I happen to have one here my dear, dear friend.
I will mail it to you for only 5 dollars.

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Not a motive...but a technical reason....energy can't emerge from nothing by any known means....yet it supposedly did in big bang theory. So what is the reason/

I'm universally neutral lol, it just poses that the universe came from a state of extremely high temperature and density, anything about nothing is inference.

Also this spacial nothing doesn't impy actual nothing, although I don't think we're talking string theory here - if so, over my head.

What energy Ben? I told you it was zero. You don't believe anything can come from nothing - neither do I so we agreed on zero energy right?
