The Birth of the Universe – Before Time Had a Name
This episode explores the mysterious origins of the universe, beginning with the concept of "nothingness" and leading into the Big Bang — not as an explosion in space, but as the rapid expansion of space itself. It unpacks how time, space, and matter emerged from a singularity, delves into cosmic inflation, and explains how light was finally set free after 380,000 years of darkness. Through quantum fluctuations, the earliest seeds of structure were formed, eventually leading to stars, galaxies, and life. The episode also introduces the multiverse hypothesis and philosophical reflections on why anything exists at all. It ends with a poetic reminder that we are the universe becoming conscious of itself.
