Inflation is thought to have been caused by a peculiar form of high-energy matter that throws gravity into reverse.

No experiment has yet been devised that can observe what happened before inflation.

Inflation explains why the universe appears to be so smooth and homogeneous when astronomers examine it at large scales.

The BGV theorem establishes the existence of this singularity, without saying what kind of singularity it is.

A singularity hints at the fact that general relativity can’t be a complete description of the basic rules of physics.

The researchers showed that if the amount of matter is negligible, the singularity can be eliminated.
