A universe in the laboratory' Alan Guth, an American physicist, describes in his book The Inflationary Universe, how, in 1979, at the age of 32, he came up with the theory of Inflation. A false vacuum, with gravity blowing instead of sucking, and causing the newborn universe to inflate' Guth proposed that the universe was originally temporarily suspended in a supercooled 'false vacuum', a vacuum which would have generated a repulsive force, with gravity blowing instead of sucking, and causing the newborn universe to inflate. As the universe inflated from the diameter of a proton to that of a grapefruit, the false vacuum decayed, converting into matter heated to a very high temperature, expanding as the big bang.
Inflation is a wonderful theory.
