A Lab Experiment Gone Awry?

The universe, is it a product of evolution, or creation?  Could the universe have been cooked up, in a lab?  Andrei Linde thinks it’s possible, a lab created universe that is, and it is an experiment that could, possibly, be replicated today.

"It doesn’t take all that much to create a universe. Resources on a cosmic scale are not required. It might even be possible for someone in a not terribly advanced civilization to cook up a new universe in a laboratory. Which leads to an arresting thought: Could that be how our universe came into being?"

Linde’s theory is termed “cosmic inflation.”

Now, where is that chemistry set?

“The Big Lab Experiment."

  1. John Venlet: The universe, is it a product of evolution, or creation?

    Why couldn’t the universe have been created, and then it began evolving?

    In other words, why does it have to be one or the other? Why not Both?
