Big Bang, conceptual image F007 / 0217

Big Bang, conceptual image. Computer artwork representing the origin of the universe depicted by an infinity torus knot. The term Big Bang describes the initial expansion of all the matter in the universe from an infinitely compact state 13.7 billion years ago. The initial conditions are not known, but less than a second after the beginning, temperatures were trillions of degrees Celsius and the primordial universe was much smaller than an atom. It has been expanding and cooling ever since. Matter formed and coalesced into the galaxies, which are observed to be moving away from each other. Background radiation in the universe is considered a remnant of the Big Bang

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Big Bang, conceptual image F007 / 0217" takes us on a visual journey into the depths of the universe's origin. Created through computer artwork, it depicts the concept of the Big Bang, which describes the explosive expansion of all matter from an infinitely compact state approximately 13.7 billion years ago. The image showcases an infinity torus knot, symbolizing the intricate and interconnected nature of our cosmos. Against a black background, this abstract representation evokes a sense of mystery and awe. The glow emanating from within hints at the intense heat that characterized the primordial universe mere moments after its birth. As temperatures soared to trillions of degrees Celsius in less than a second following the Big Bang, unimaginable physical conditions prevailed. The initial size was smaller than an atom itself, yet since then, our universe has been continuously expanding and cooling. Within this vast expanse emerged galaxies as matter formed and coalesced over time. Observations reveal that these galaxies are moving away from one another—an intriguing testament to our ever-evolving cosmos. Intriguingly, remnants of this monumental event can still be detected today in background radiation throughout space—a constant reminder of our cosmic origins. This breathtaking artwork delves into concepts encompassing astrophysics, cosmology, and physics while igniting curiosity about our place in such a grandiose universe. It serves as both an aesthetic masterpiece and a gateway to understanding humanity's quest for knowledge about where we come from and what lies beyond.
