Where did the energy and mass in the singularity come from?

In summary, the conversation discusses the origin of the universe and the concept of a singularity. The possible sources of the singularity's energy and mass are debated, including the theory of a multiverse and the concept of a creator. However, the exact cause of the Big Bang and the origins of the universe remain unknown and speculative.

What caused it to suddenly create a universe? What caused the singularity to change into the Big Bang?

Can anyone explain how all the mass-energy was accumulated into the "singularity"?

Where did the Energy in singularity come from? Could it be that human cosmologists are only stating an unproven theory? We know that energy can be transformed into mass, and mass into energy. If the "singularity" contained all the energy and mass in the present universe, then you will have to admit that said energy and mass came from somewhere or something.
So where did it come from?

it is possiable that there is a thing called the multi verse, were that if the weak, strong, gravitational and em force united a certain point than there would be a universe before our universe
we know this becouse if that happens then as the universe contracts to about the Planck length, it begins to grow again and so it turns to a different universe, so our energy could be from a distant past universe
but there is the problem of cause and effect, e.g. who created the world? god, Who created God? This could be more of a philosphy question.

Unknown. The big bang theory only takes us back to the first tick of Planck time. It may have been preceeded by other 'universes' and arose from a 'bounce', or it may have originated from 'nothing' as the consequence of a random quantum fluctuation. It's all purely speculative at this time, and likely to remain so for the foreseable future.

1. Where did atoms come from?

Atoms are believed to have originated from the Big Bang, which occurred approximately 13.8 billion years ago. During this event, the universe was created and all matter, including atoms, were formed.

2. How were atoms created?

Atoms were created through the process of nucleosynthesis, which involves the fusion of subatomic particles such as protons and neutrons. This process occurred in the extremely high temperatures and pressures of the early universe, allowing for the creation of the first atoms.

3. What are the main components of an atom?

An atom is made up of three main components: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of the atom, while electrons orbit around the nucleus.

4. Can atoms be destroyed?

Atoms cannot be destroyed, but they can be broken apart or combined with other atoms through chemical reactions. The fundamental particles that make up atoms, such as protons, neutrons, and electrons, cannot be destroyed but can be transformed into different forms of matter.

5. How do atoms form different elements?

The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines its element. As atoms combine and interact, they can gain or lose protons, thus creating different elements. This process is known as nuclear fusion and occurs in stars and other high-energy environments.
