Although it is purely speculation, it is suggested that the energy which formed the universe was either transferred or transformed from another universe, dimension, or reality. At the instant of the Big Bang, the energy density of the singularity would have been finite but inconceivably large, such that its release would have spontaneously generated quarks that combined to form all of the matter currently in existence. This mass includes all stars, galaxies, black holes, and interstellar dust, as well the "dark matter" which is only apparent in large-scale gravitational phenomena.

What is the term for the false idea that the universe is nothing but matter in motion?

Materialism


What happens when anti-matter is created?

Anti matter isn't created, but "formed". No one can create matter (or anti-matter) nor destroy it.


What does energy cannot be created or destroyed mean?

I assume you are referring to the Law of Conservation of Matter. It states that during a chemical bond, energy and matter cannot be created, nor destroyed; the amount of energy and matter at the start is identical to the amount at the end.


How can you create zero gravity?

There is no place in the universe that has zero gravity. No matter where you are some type of gravitational force is acting upon you. So there is no way to create zero gravity even in the vastness of space.


If matter cannot be created from nothing then how did the universe create matter from nothing?

It is religion that makes such a claim, not science. Science can go no farther back than the small bundle of unimaginably high energy that is thought to have spawned the 'big bang', the expansion of the energy that eventually became the universe as we know it. And in fact science readily admits that even going back that far requires a great deal of speculation, even if that speculation outlines a succession of processes that is substantially defensible.Spontaneous creation of matter (or energy) is not compatible with the known processes of the physical universe as it now exists.Sources for the Big BangAlthough it is purely speculation, it is suggested that the energy which formed the universe was either 1) already present, or 2) transferred, transformed, or siphoned from another universe, dimension, or reality. At the instant of the Big Bang, the energy density of the singularity would have been finite but almost inconceivably large, such that its release would have spontaneously generated quarks that combined to form all of the matter currently in existence. This mass includes all stars, galaxies, black holes, and interstellar dust, as well the "dark matter" which is only apparent in large-scale gravitational phenomena.

Was there matter before God created the universe?

The creation of matter and the creation of the universe were one and the same event, occurring approximately 11.3 billion years ago. Some scientists believe that our universe is not alone, but that there are other universes in what is termed the 'multiverse'; if so they would have held matter when our universe was created.


What god create the universe?

The question is rather confusing, assuming it asks what god created the universe, that is a matter of total opinion. If you are Christian, Muslim, Jewish you will likely believe that God created the universe, not 'what' God. I personally believe that the universe has existed forever and will exist forever.

What is the theory of creation of matter and antimatter from nothing?

You are giving the definition for the Big Bang Theory.


Where does every piece of matter begin in the universe?

The best theory is that all matter was created at the Big Bang

Doctrine of God- existence of God?

"Where else did matter come from? If matter has no beginning and always existed, then matter must be god", this is a sentence you sometimes here religious people say in the defence of their belief. But if god is matter, it is bind by laws of nature, like all matter is. But laws of nature don't allow such thing as god. He would have to exist in some place of the Universe, since there is no place outside of the Universe. And how could he have created the Universe from inside it, just when there was nothing inside Universe, since it was a singularity, infinitely small space. A god couldn't have been outside the universe either, since there is no such place as outside the Universe, the Universe is all there is. And furthermore there was not time before the Big Bang (in which the Universe began), since time itself started at it. So there's no place or time in which a god could have existed before the universe was born. God didn't create the universe, all the matter the Universe is made of existed already at the singularity. It was compressed so tiny and dense taht eventually it exploded and formed the Universe. The matter was always there, and quite possibly there have been other Universes before this one, and they all ended up with a Big Crunch (which is an opposite of Big Bang), in which all the matter of the Universe compressed into a singularity, only to explode again into another Universe. We can never prove that theory, since time in which we can make observations started at the Big Bang 13,7 billion years ago and we cannot see before that. If someone believes the Universe is created by god, then they must ask themselves where did the god came from? Where is god now? How he was born? How he supposedly created the Universe? There's no explanation for any of those questions. There is absolutely no proof of god.


Is the universe the creation of matter or the expansion of matter which is pre existing?

The matter that existed since the Big Bang is expanding. A few decades ago, a "steady-state" theory was popular; according to it, matter was created as the Universe expanded, thus maintaining the matter density in the Universe constant. However, observational evidence did not support this theory.The matter that existed since the Big Bang is expanding.

What is the source for creating the universe and why it was created?

A:Some say that God createde the universe. Some say that Brahma created the universe. And so on. This must always remain a matter of dispute, without necessary animosity, since none of these claims can ever be proven. In each case, they are based on faith alone. There are even more explanations as to why one of these gods created the universe as there are creator gods. Scientists say the universe was created by the 'Big Bang', the single cosmic event that created matter out of nothing. This is still a hypothesis and therefore, like the religious explanations is also unproven. Its advantage, if any, is that it is consistent with known science and does not require the complication of a creator god, whose existence must then be explained.


What was here before your universe?

actually there was nothing before our universe . suddenly there was a big blast called big bang and matter came into extistance. hope satisfied you.
