Default inflationary theory not inflamatory

eh,

first time I heard a coherent explanation of this inflationary theory. Thanks for spreading.

I think because of the greater than c speeds, it may be possible to reconcile BIG-Bang (which I think lacks simultaneity - itz plurality) with inflationary theory, to obtain a series of big-bangs in close temporal proximity and not necessarily spatialproximity. This may account for the certain non-uniformities in our universe and the uneven distribution of galaxies and so on and so forth.

Having only superficial Knowledge of Plank's constant does this reconcillationary effot seem possible to your current imprint.

fando:

When I was taking physics in High School, my physics teacher said, after going over a particularly good explanation of something: "there, now if you're ever at a party and anyone asks you about this you can explain it! ...actually, they probably don't *really* want to know about it that bad, and you'll just waste your time if you do it, so it's probably better to say 'I dunno how that works' if someone asks you..."

atleast what i understand of the inflationary theory is that the big bang threw everything (energy?) out very quickly and fairly uniformly and that this is why we can see light from matter 13 billion light years away and not from matter 14 billion light years away. basically it explains how we ourselves got here ahead of light traveling from things that are 14 billion light years away and currently outside our "hubble sphere"

but if ever there was a time that things traveled faster then light, how would they ever be slowed down with no force pulling them back that could keep up with them?
