Before the Big Bang, the universe might have contracted and then bounced. Scientists found that during such a bounce, all irregularities smooth themselves out, like wrinkles on a sheet when tugged. The universe becomes perfectly uniform without any fine-tuning — the mystery of homogeneity solved.
🎯 During a quantum bounce, the fabric of space doesn’t collapse into a point of infinite density but smoothly unfurls, like a crumpled sheet after a swift tug.
