That is currently unknown. According to Conservation of Mass, all the mass currently in the Universe must have already been present at the moment of the Big Bang. What happened before that - or if there actually was a "before" - is unknown.

Actually, at the very beginning, there was a lot of energy, but not much mass.

Mass arose from this energy in accordance with Einstein's famous equation

E = mc2.

What is dark matter and what exists for it?

We know that dark matter exists because it got gravity, though it is invisible. It hold galaxy and Universe. There is a theory there many other parallel universe outside our universe and dark matter holds those universe up and some scientists says that dark matter are just mass of the matter of the parallel universe. It sounds crazy but that is the Law of Physics. However there is not exact explanation of what dark matter really is, so there are still Noble Prices for those who can come up with a reasonable explanation

Weird thing is, there are many other parallel universe, so there is someone like me from another universe typing this answer and there is someone from another universe that is the same as you read reading this right now, man that is creepy. So what lies on the edge of the Universe? Another parallel universe. And the theory for that is 'String Theory' and 'The M theory'.

How come the universe is made of matter and not antimatter?

That is not currently known. There is a slight assymetry between matter and antimatter, but so far, it seems that this assymetry is not enough to explain why there is only matter, and hardly any antimatter, in the Universe. Without such an assymetry, there wouldn't be either matter or antimatter in the Universe - just radiation. For more information about what is known, and what isn't, check the Wikipedia article on "Baryon asymmetry".


What is the percentage of matter in the universe?

In my Universe, about 23% of its energy is found in dark matter -- about four to five times more than in matter we happen to understand. I don't know the percentage in your Universe.


What are two questions physicists have regarding antimatter?

1. Why is there more matter than antimatter in the Universe? Or: Why is there matter at all? (If there were the same amount of matter and antimatter, and it came into contact, it would quickly get destroyed. 2. If antimatter is so abundant, how come we've never come in contact with it or have been able to observe it?
