RFKEYAM9–Abstract Digital World Background, Earth Globe Covered by Futuristic Digital Data Tubes In Deep Space Moving Fast to The Next Star

RFMNN37M–Bubble universes. Computer illustration of multiple 'bubble' universes as predicted by the Eternal Inflation theory. The inflationary theory proposes that after the Big Bang, a condition known as a false vacuum created a repulsive force that caused an incredibly rapid expansion, much faster than the ordinary expansion observed today. Since this expansion is faster than the speed of light, areas of inflation would form bubbles that would be completely isolated from each other. This artwork could also represent the creation of separate 'parallel' universes as fluctuations in a quantum foam.

RFH2PBHA–Big Bang, conceptual image. Computer illustration representing the origin of the universe. The term Big Bang describes the initial expansion of all the matter in the universe from an infinitely compact state 13.7 billion years ago. The initial conditions

RF2A6CJY8–Dark energy, conceptual image. Computer illustration representing dark energy and the expansion of the universe. Dark energy is a poorly understood concept, introducted by cosmologists to explain the observation that the universe is not only expanding, but accelerating as it does so.

RFJGN6K8–Big Bang, conceptual image. Computer illustration representing the origin of the universe. The term Big Bang describes the initial expansion of all the matter in the universe from an infinitely compact state 13.7 billion years ago. The initial conditions are not known, but less than a second after the beginning, temperatures were trillions of degrees Celsius and the primordial universe was much smaller than an atom. It has been expanding and cooling ever since. Matter formed and coalesced into the galaxies, which are observed to be moving away from each other.
