All matter, all energy, bound, condensed into an infinitesimal, scorching white particle. The immensity of the pressure cannot withhold. An explosion. The Big Bang. A massive collision, followed by many, many more collisions, until everything rights itself, becomes stabilized within gravity, pending the occasional collision, and has a sense of permanence, safety.
But now the universe is expanding, stretching, perpetually yawning.
Some parts are even sinking, sucked into the spacial vacuums, the inevitable Black Holes.
These villainous black holes will not discriminate. They inhale all that crosses their path, swallowing whatever they meet. Some say, eventually all will be lost to the black hole's insatiable mouth. But what if all wasn't lost? What if all the black holes worked together? And inside those loop holes all matter and energy collided, condensed, formed another tiny, dense, white hot particle? Only to explode again?
This is the Big Bounce Theory. An idea that the first cosmological event, the Big Bang, was really the result of the collapse of the previous universe. A cyclical paroxysm. A series of sausage links. (DeSelby really was onto something...)
Death. Rebirth. But not Eternal Return, where time is not considered linear, but recurrent. An ouroboros snake, giving the apple to Eve, over, and over, and over again.
It's more like:
Death. Birth. Death. Birth.
Bang. Crunch. Bang. Crunch.
Energy can neither be created, nor destroyed. It can only change form.
Spacephobia...
