Chapter 3. The Light of Existence

Brian Whitworth, New Zealand

 

“There is a theory which states that if anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.”

Douglas Adams, 1995.

In the beginning, there was light, but not as we know it today. In the last chapter, our universe began as one white-hot photon in one unit of space, but this first event instantly led to the chain-reaction that physics calls inflation. Inflation then created all the light that has ever existed in a million, billion, billion, billionth of a second, until the accompanying expansion of space diluted the light enough to stop it. The result was a small plasma ball of white-hot light and space that then expanded at light speed to form all the galaxies and stars we see today. In this view, light, and only light, was the first existence, so what is it? Download Whole Chapter
