 * Thanks! Acei9 05:17, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Great essay. It really furthers my understanding of a concept that is often explained in far too technical terms for a layperson.--Brendiggg (talk) 13:39, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello, Ace! I'm RationalWiki user Ander Garin, and I've to say that yours is a great explanation about the origins of the universe. However, I've a doubt. I used to think that space didn't exist before the Big Bang, so, does the field that you mention occupy space? And also, do quantum fluctuations need time to occur? 19:17, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
 * This is fairly old and Ace has not been active for awhile. The short answer is space-time is expanding into something.  We don't know what it is because the only way to find out is to go outside of our bubble 14 billion light years away.  We have not found a place without time to see if quantum fluctuation occurs, only spaces without particles (a vacuum).  -EmeraldCityWanderer (talk) 19:25, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you EmeraldCityWanderer! Anyway, I've found an article somewhere that says that a metaestable false vacuum does not necessary need to have time or space. -User:Ander Garin 8:45, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
