Not much, really. Our Universe MIGHT be significantly larger than what we can see -- that portion of our Universe we call the "observable Universe" -- or it might be infinite. No conclusion can be made about the size of our Universe based on the fact of the Big Bang.
The entire OBSERVABLE Universe must have been smaller than the size of a proton. Since the ENTIRE Universe is much larger, and perhaps infinite, we really don't know how large that was.
The Big Bang theory explains that the Universe is expanding. Of course, if it continues expanding, at some time it must get to be a certain size. (Note that it is not currently known how large this size is.) On the other hand, according to the anthropic principle, we must be in a fairly early stage of the Universe - while there is still lots of available energy.Post script:Absolutely right. Just a short note to say the Universe is not only expanding, but it is accelerating its expantion, due to the still mysterious «dark energy».Some cosmologists defend the hypothesis of the Universe will end in a «Big Rip», others defend the «Big Freeze».Either way, we (the Human race) will not be arround to see it...
This is true but you need to expand on what your saying it increased but the theory's from Edwin Hubble supports the information of the redshift and the relates to the expanding of the earth and the size increased in mass. And that relates back to The Big Bang theory
Both of them are real. God is real and created the universe, but the Big Bang was a theory or an event that proves the formation of the universe. The Big Bang tells us that there was a state that expanded rapidly and became extremely hot. Because of its size and climate, it exploded and that proves that the planets, stars, and other things were spread out somewhere in the universe. Check the related links for more information.
The theory is that there is a hole at the center of the universe, but that it is smaller then the size of an atom. Otherwise nothing is really known
From an infinitesimally small point to the present size, the universe is still expanding as a result of the big bang.
big bang explosion
This is an area of active research... meaning, nobody really knows. The visible Universe has a radius of about 46 billion light-years. According to the "inflation" theory (basically, the modern version of the Big Bang theory), the total size of the Universe MIGHT be millions or billions of times bigger.

Pulsating Theory According to this theory, the universe is supposed to be expanding and contracting alternately i.e. pulsating. At present, the universe is expanding. According to pulsating theory, it is possible that at a certain time, the expansion of the universe may be stopped by the gravitational pull and the may contract again. After it has been contracted to a certain size, explosion again occurs and the universe will start expanding. The alternate expansion and contraction of the universe give rise to pulsating universe.
The big Bang Theory explains that the universe started as nothingness and the nothingness expanded somehow and made a big bang.that is how all of the galaxies and worlds were made. x x x xThe light distance galaxies shows that clusters of galaxies are all moving away from each other. The universe is big and getting bigger. space itself is expanding.Imagine filming this expanding universe. If you ran the film backwards. You could see how it all began. the universe once had no size at all. It burst into existence from nothing. It is incredibly hot. This is called big bang theory.:)the big bang theory explains how the universe was createdThe Big Bang is one of the theories on how the Earth was formed.
Not much, unfortunately. We know that our Universe is expanding, and has been for about 13.7 billion years. The problem is, we can only see light from objects that has had time to reach us since the Big Bang. Thus, we can only know about the "observable" universe. How much more of our Universe is outside our present field of vision is still speculative at best.
