Scientists have shown how quantum mechanics can replace the Big Bang with a Big Bounce.

The universe didn't explode, it bounced, like a ball off a wall. Physicists found a quantum way to avoid the point of infinite density. One approach reverses time. This could mean the Big Bang had a 'before,' and it's hidden in the cosmic microwave background.

🎯 According to one scenario, the universe arose from the collision of two three-dimensional membranes in a space with more dimensions.

\hat{H} \Psi = 0
Wheeler-DeWitt equation: $\hat{H}$ is the energy operator, $\Psi$ is the wave function of the universe.
