    Black hole Hole
Click For Summary
The Big Bang Theory does not suggest that the universe originated from a single point or that it would inevitably collapse into a black hole. Instead, it describes a hot, dense state that may have been infinite or finite but not singular. The early universe was characterized by rapid expansion, preventing matter and radiation from collapsing into a black hole. A black hole represents a vacuum spacetime, while the Big Bang involved a spacetime filled with matter. Therefore, the conditions of the early universe made it impossible for it to become a black hole.

We know the Big Bang Theory states that our universe was started from a hot-dense point. But should't it became black hole and every matter and radiation pulled to singularity? We would not be her if that is the case.

It is unfortunate that you "know" that, since it's not true.

The "Big Bang Theory" doesn't actually say anything about how the universe started. That is, that theory does not posit a creation event. It posits a starting universe in a hot dense state, which may have been infinite in extent or may have been finite, but if finite, it was not a single point in space. That plasma state evolved into the universe we live in today.

I suggest a forum search. the question has been answered here dozens of times as to why we don't live in a black hole.

A black hole is a vacuum spacetime. The Big Bang is based on a spacetime with matter everywhere. They are not equivalent.

No. The matter and radiation in the early universe was expanding very rapidly. Far too rapidly for any of it to collapse to a black hole, even at the very high densities of the early universe.
 
Moderator's note: Spin-off from another thread due to topic change. In the second link referenced, there is a claim about a physical interpretation of frame field. Consider a family of observers whose worldlines fill a region of spacetime. Each of them carries a clock and a set of mutually orthogonal rulers. Each observer points in the (timelike) direction defined by its worldline's tangent at any given event along it. What about the rulers each of them carries ? My interpretation: each...
