The answer to that question will fill several college degrees and a few lifetimes of study. The short answer is "We're not sure yet."

At present, it would appear to be mostly "empty space". But is it really "empty", or is it filled with transient and short-lived "virtual particles"? Is matter really "solid", or is it just some sort of bound energy? Are we really here, or is everything including me, the state of California and all of WikiAnswers some sort of fantasy that I've dreamed up in my mind?

Perhaps you'll write the book about this.

How did Einstein's Theory of Relativity lead to the development of the Big Bang Theory?

In 1924, Alexander Friedman noted that the equations of general relativity have only two solutions: an expanding universe or a contracting universe. Independently of that work, in 1927 Georges LeMaitre used those same equations to show that an expanding universe was the only reasonable description of our Universe. His ideas were later described as a "big bang" by those who opposed them.


What is the no boundry universe theory?

A "no boundary" universe is a universe where the change in energy is positive or negative everywhere in the universe. Such a universe theory calls for everywhere expansion or everywhere contraction. The current central dogma in Astronomy is for such an expanding universe. The corrected Law of Gravity indicates that the universe is bounded and not expanding.
