You can probably tell from my terminology that I am not a scientist, but I have a vision of the Big Bang that I have tried to summarise below (I will spare you the detail!). Could some kind cosmologist out there please tell me whether or not my vision reflects any main stream scientific theories?
Space is infinite, but because of our physical boundaries and concept of time, we have no way of comprehending this.
It is and always has been filled with all the particles we have discovered and ones we have yet to discover swirling and interacting in accordance with the laws that govern them. When two particles are attracted to one another (perhaps by what we call gravity) to form a group, a greater mass is created which then attracts other particles. Each growing mass continues to attract small particles until it has grown large enough to also pull in other groups of smaller size. Gradually and over a vast time scale, a critical mass is formed that pulls in larger and larger volumes of material until it is dominating a vast volume of space and all the various particles and smaller groups within its power are flowing towards it. The attraction between the various components is continually pulling them closer together so that this dominant group starts to increase in density to form a rapidly compacting mass with vast built in energy. Eventually the mass becomes too great to be contained and the guiding physical laws determine that the energy must be released. The result is an explosion; a ‘big bang’.
All the particles that have been stored within this dominant group are thrown out into space in all directions forming a rapidly expanding ball (our universe is one of these) that pushes away all other particles and groups of particles in its path. The released particles are propelled outwards by the force of the huge energy explosion, but retain their properties of attraction to one another. Some connect together to form the elements and entities we are now aware of, but most do not. The farther they travel, the distances between some of them increase, so the gravitational pull between them reduces and although their original velocity remains constant, the speed at which they separate increases. As the ball expands, the speeding particles and everything that has evolved from them will eventually separate sufficiently to come under the influence of other similar interactions that are continually occurring at different stages of existence throughout the infinity of space, ultimately to be drawn towards other dominant groups and a repeat of the whole process.
