Things only seem to begin or end because of the way we define them. A day "begins" at dawn or at 12 am for the same reason the border between countries exist, because it is convenient for us to designate categories so as to define relationships Only stories have beginnings-- it is a literary convention, and we use stories to communicate ideas about reality. But spacetime is not an underlying grid against which all phenomena can be compared, reality itself transcends time and space. Spacetime emerged because of the Big Bang, it is a measure of entropy, which gives the arrow of time its direction from past to future. The universe already existed at the moment of the Big Bang but spacetime is not an adequate metric to describe it (the phrase "before the Big Bang," is not a time any more than "North of the North Pole".is a location). Infinity or eternity may be more appropriate terms but we haven't yet developed a conceptual language with which to use them.

Hi Closer ToTruth, until recently it did not occur to me that it is entirely possible that this question does not have a answer because it is only relevant to human perception because we have chosen to assume that time is part of the universal operating system. For me the problem is that while forces like gravity can clearly be demonstrated and falling objects does appear to be moving and that movement appears to be in the form of a uniform acceleration there is no direct influence of time, it is only used as a factor in description of dynamic events. On this basis it is quite possible that like many other concepts and ideas time is only a product of human imagination, that the organic ageing of the human body is only the demonstration of the biological and chemical dynamics in which case the universe is simply what it is and always just that, and therefore does not have to have a beginning or an end.

He was approximating. When he talked about "imperfections" (fluctuations) at the time of the Big Bang that gave rise to the variations in the CMB and to the astronomical structures we observe, he was more precise. Of course, you also have to account for the evolution of the universe over time. When we look at objects that are very far away, such as quasars, we see them as they were a long time ago, and we need to extrapolate to imagine them as they are now. Comparing nearby objects today to faraway objects as they were billions of years ago is like comparing "apples to oranges"... an invalid comparison.

One question is, did the universe have a beginning? Another question could be " where " did it begin or manifest?

As the standard model is supported by the census of all researchers, ie that our universe did have a beginning. If so, using the law of causality, whatever caused this beginning event has to be logically immaterial, timeless, spaceless and enormously powerful.

I think you are making mistaken conclusions. There is not a consensus that there is a definitive beginning, before which there was "nothing". Some people theorize that the universe may have bubbled from another universe, and there may be infinite such other universe. Otherse theorize that the notion of "before" may itself be meaningless in that time itself may not have existed. My personal belief is that the true nature of existence is something completely beyond our comprehension, like an amoeba trying to fathom the operation of a nuclear power plant.

@@maxhagenauer24 It's all incredibly mind twisting, yea. The problem with your suggestion is that it simply moves the goal post. If "something" made it all, then where did that something come from? How did that something come into being? And if the answer is that the "something" itself is somehow beyond time, then why couldn't existence itself similarly be beyond time? This is why I return to my belief that whatever the answer is, it is far, far beyond our ability to even begin to comprehend. It probably involves thinking beyond ways we are remotely capable of. Here's something that might help. Imagine there is a world of only 2 dimensions, where everything exists like a drawing. If you were to drop a ball into and through this world, all its inhabitants would see, and all they could comprehend, would be a circle that would grow in size from a dot to a larger circle and back to a dot again, and then vanish completely. In fact, they wouldn't even be able to "see" it as a circle -- they would only "see" a point growing into a larger line and back to a point again -- but they might be able to rub against it and detect through its coordinates that there is a circle of changing size. But inhabitants of this 2 dimensional world would be completely incapable of even grasping the idea of a sphere. A 3rd dimension that's perpendicular to every point of their world? How could that be?! To you it's obvious because you live in a 3 dimensional world and it's easy to look DOWN. But try the reverse and imagine a 4th physical dimension (not time but a physical dimension) that is perpendicular to all three of our dimensions. Hard! And we're just talking about physical dimensions, not the "dimension" of existence itself. My guess is that the mystery of existence would be like us trying to understand hundreds....thousands.....of dimensions above ours. We just can't do it. The best thing we can probably do is struggle to grasp what we can within the bounds of our capabilities and accept that there is a LOT beyond that we will never understand. To me, this makes existence even more wonderful, mysterious, glorious.

How can we measure time without reference to events, event being define, for my purpose, as the change in relationship betweew 2 reference points change, if the reference points change, there must be motion: if there is motion, there must be certain velocity, if there is velocity, a mesurment using time must be involve: even the cesium clock riquires the counting of events, and by this total, a time interval is determined and accepted for future reference: hence , there is no time without motion , and no way to mesure motiom without time, and round and round we go: at best , we can make only an arbitrary judjement on anythîng involving space or time ; well the parallel between gordian knot and string are eerie , IMAHO DONT BELIVE I AM A STRING FAN BUT SOME TENSOR OR FORMULA ARE GOOD AS TOOLS LOOK WHAT I DID ABOUT BLACK HOLE

The words begin or beginning have no intrinsic meaning in the way you used them. It is like asking ,where is the edge of the point at the center of the circle. This question has no meaning.
