There was a little atom of me that expanded to become the known universe we know.
But that doesn't mean that that little atom was the whole universe.
The universe could be huge.
We don't know.
Before the Big Bang, it could have already been infinitely large.
We have no idea.
The only evidence we have is that the stuff we can see was once in a very close area.
And that goes back to that radiation, that microwave background.
The microwave background has been a wonderful story.
It was discovered back in the 1970s by two scientists from Bell Labs called Penzias and Wilson.
And they were trying to categorize.
They were dealing with Bell Labs.
They were trying to deal with microwave signals, microwave communication.
And they built a big microwave telescope.
And they started to catalog what objects in the sky naturally produce microwaves.
The sun produces some.
Other things produce microwaves.
This was all for communications.
And they discovered that everywhere they looked in the sky, there was this background noise.
Very low level, but it was there.
