Our Big Bang just one of many

"WHAT if there was an entire universe that existed before the Big Bang?

This is the theory of a leading Oxford University scientist who claims to have evidence of stars and galaxies that existed long before the universe as we know it formed, The Daily Mail reported.

Professor Roger Penrose says that cosmic radiation discovered by one of NASA's telescopes is older than the Big Bang.

The researcher shows that the cosmic radiation background (CMB) formed in concentric circles that had cooled to a temperature of -270C over the 14 billion years since the universe came into being."

"Prof Penrose says that his research shows that all matter in the universe will eventually be consumed by black holes, leaving only energy behind which will in turn trigger the next Big Bang."

Just a big cycle of Big Bangs, then absorption by Black Holes, then Big Bangs again.

there must have been a sole big bang at the very beginning to kick it all off

mustn't there??

unless it's just god putting anomalies in place to test our faith and the universe is only 5000 years old. What sort of thunderqunt would do that?
