Scientific American astronomy editor George Musser explains.. This question really has two parts. First, how was matter able to get out of the big-bang singularity? After all, physicists describe The first and most confident evidence we have came from 1964 when scientists at the Bell Labs discovered the cosmic microwave background radiation, confirming there was a Big Bang. This revolutionized cosmology, how we see the universe, and how we view our place within it. Let's think a little bit about what the Big Bang theory suggests. And then based on the theory, what we should be observing today. So the Big Bang starts with all of the mass in space in the universe, an infinitely, an infinitely dense singularity. And a singularity is just something that the math doesn't even apply to it. Bringing the story back to "The Big Bang Theory" episode, a proposed explanation of the currently observed discrepancy is supersymmetry. Then there are some future experiments. 0nly.
