Cosmic Inflation and the Beginning of the Universe with Will Kinney
In the beginning, was the Big Bang: an unimaginably hot fire almost fourteen billion years ago in which the first elements were forged. The physical theory of the hot nascent universe -- the Big Bang -- was one of the most consequential developments in twentieth-century science. And yet it leaves many questions unanswered: Why is the universe so big? Why is it so old? What is the origin of structure in the cosmos? Physicist Will Kinney explains a more recent theory that may hold the answers to these questions and sheds light on the ultimate origins of the universe: cosmic inflation.
