According to the most common scientific theory, EVERYTHING WE KNOW, including space and time, was created with the Big Bang. What may have been before is actually outside our accessibility.

At Stanford University in California, the physicist Andrej Linde has a simple explanation for the existence of matter: "Our universe is simply one of infinitely many parallel universes with infinitely many different properties. A juxtaposition of innumerable worlds in which there are possibly completely different physical laws than in our world. And one of the many is purely accidental - namely that ours are designed in such a way that we can live in it."
