Empty space isn't empty. As the universe expands, it can conjure particles from nothing. But new simulations show that when these particles interact, they suppress their own birth—like too many chefs refusing to cook. This cosmic shyness changes how we think about the Big Bang's first moments.
🎯 The idea that an expanding universe can create particles from nothing was first aired by [scientist:Erwin Schrödinger]Erwin Schrödinger[/scientist] in 1939, long before [scientist:Stephen Hawking]Hawking[/scientist] applied it to black holes.
