Part 2/9:
Dr. Kowki introduces a compelling idea: if the universe is indeed infinitely vast, it follows that there would be infinite copies of ourselves across its expanse. This notion raises the intriguing question of whether the Big Bang was truly the inception of time. Kowki suggests that perhaps the Big Bang was merely a significant event in an ongoing narrative of the universe, which might have existed in forms or dimensions we have yet to understand.
Conceptually, discussing "what happened before the Big Bang" becomes problematic if time itself began at that moment, rendering the idea of "before" nonsensical. Alternatively, if time existed prior to the Big Bang, it opens the door to exploring a realm of existence unbound by our conventional understanding of time and space.
