Turok-Hawking model
The Turok-Hawking model proposes that the universe didn't originate from a singular Big Bang but instead existed in a timeless, stable state before transitioning into a dynamic, expanding universe. Using quantum principles, it suggests that the universe "bounced" into existence due to quantum fluctuations, with no beginning point in time. This model integrates ideas from quantum cosmology and string theory, offering an alternative view of the universe’s origin that avoids the concept of a singular beginning, while still explaining the universe's current rapid expansion and structure.
