There are a number of reasons to suspect that the universe started from a point: 1) All the distant galaxies are headed away from us, so 13.7 billion years ago they were in one spot.. 2) The macro-universe is no different on opposite sides. Nothing has had the time to smooth out both sides. 3) The Microwave background noise is everywhere, and it is an echo of the "Big Bang" (sort of...). So how did the universe get from a tiny point to what we have now? Well the best theory is that in the first second of the Big Bang, SPACE (not matter) inflated tremendously fast. This is a complicated subject, but much is know about what happened, and many pieces of evidence point in this direction.
There are various concepts and theories about the universe, including the Big Bang theory, multiverse theory, inflation theory, and the cosmic microwave background radiation. These concepts seek to explain the origins, expansion, and composition of the universe.
Cosmic Conflict happened in 1978.
The Cosmic Scene was created in 1958.
Cosmic Air ended in 2008.
The Cosmic Balance happened in 1982.
The cosmic inflation did resolve the flatness problem by the theory which states that the universe appears to have a flat geometry.
Several problems that were found with the Big Bang theory were solved by cosmic inflation. I suggest you read about cosmic inflation. One of these problems was the fact that the Universe is fairly homogeneous. Without inflation, it wouldn't have had time to "spread out" any irregularities.
I'm not an expert in astrophysics, but I expect it to be relatively soon. You may have seen the news articles which stated that a research team at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics has discovered "cosmic ripples" from when the universe was 1*10 power -36 seconds old or so. Even if these are proven to not be decisive, as far as I know most astrophysicists agree that the Big Bang and cosmic inflation are the likeliest theory for universal origin and expansion. And with the recent advances in optical and computing technology, even more conclusive results are surely on the horizon. (Unless, that is, the theory of cosmic inflation is proven false, in which case we will probably start from scratch in all astrophysical fields.)
Alan Guth did not really discover anything - maybe a bit of fluff in his navel or something. He did, however, develop the idea of cosmic inflation.
Choose any subject you like. Here are some ideas: black holes; dark matter; exoplanets; cosmic inflation; gravitation; galaxies.

Note that it also helped support the theory of inflation. The reason is that the observed radiation very closely matched what was expected from the theory.
