Universe
The universe is the entirety of spacetime governed by the laws of Science.
It includes:
- Matter and energy, ordinary (what we see everyday) and "Dark" (hypothesised existence), organised in a defined structure called Cosmic web;
- Spacetime, in which matter and energy exists
Origin of the universe
At the time of writing (2026-08), the most accepted theory of the universe's origin is the Big Bang Theory.[1]
However, alternative theories, such as the ekpyrotic Universe theory [2], BVG Unified Cosmology [3], and the Bilobular Collision Model [4] are actively under research.
