As far along as we think that we're getting, I think it's always good to have beginner's mind.
There is no point in my life when that won't be useful for me.
As much as I think I know, I still don't know most things.
People need to know that the universe is bigger than the bad things that are happening to us.
There are a lot of things that, like, Donald Trump can do to us and is doing to us right now.
But the one thing that he can't take away from you is your awe in the universe.
That's yours.
Thank you for having me.
I feel honored to break this barrier for the show.
I guess I will say the easy and cheap answer is we don't know.
But we can talk a lot about what happened in the immediate aftermath of the formation of the universe.
So instead of, often people think like, oh, there was a big bang.
And I think people imagine there was some explosion at some point.
And then the universe came into existence.
And actually, like, I genuinely think that we don't know exactly what happens at that moment.
Because whatever that was, it's where our equations break down.
And so we don't have a good description of that.
But we know that like very soon, like immediately after the universe came into existence or this iteration of it, that space-time started expanding rapidly.
It happened really fast in less than a fraction of a second.
It goes faster than anything is allowed to go inside of space-time.
