Big Bang

The Big Bang was the event that led to the creation of the universe . It was initiated by Arishem the Judge, who was later credited with bringing light to the universe, ending the Ginnungagap. It is also credited as the dawn of the Nine Realms, and is associated with the creation of the Infinity Stones.
==Background==
|The Cosmic Entities
Prior to the Big Bang, the ruling plane of existence was the Ginnungagap ("yawning abyss"), where according to Asgardian lore, the Dark Elves ruled with Malekith as their leader. 
Beings which predated the Big Bang were the Celestials, entities with vast matter and energy manipulation abilities.Eternals The Big Bang resulted in six singularities forming the Infinity Stones, which controlled different aspects of existence (Space, Mind, Reality, Power, Time, and Soul).

The Big Bang began as a massive ball of energy at a single point, containing elements of antimatter and dark matter, which was accumulated in the palm of Arishem the Judge. Due to the imperfections of the scale of energy, anomalies in the fabric of space collected matter, and ultimately generated enough gravitational pull to stretch out and expand this energy, effectively birthing the universe.The Big Bang as Reimagined by Marvel’s Eternals’ Effects 
With the universe's creation, the Celestials birthed an undefined number of galaxies teeming with life, and also introduced light, effectively dissipating the Ginnungagap and its vast, primordial darkness. Instantaneously, the Big Bang formed concentrated ingots out of the six pre-existing singularities, which would become the Infinity Stones.Avengers: Infinity War
==Aftermath==
===The Cycle of Life===
The creation of the universe led the Celestials to pursue a new agenda; creating more galaxies within the universe to nurture the prospering of life across it, to avert the universe's fall back into darkness. The Dark Elves, who were able to pass on to the newborn universe, spent billions of years failing to return the universe to this state, and their attempts were cancelled once and for all during the Second Dark Elf Conflict in 2013, which resulted in the extermination of most of their species.
Ultimately, the Celestials decided that in order to continue creating more galaxies, they needed to birth more Celestials in Emergences every one billion years. This cycle remained uninterrupted until the most recent cycle on Earth during the Common Era in 2024, where the Eternals managed to avert the birth of Tiamut the Communicator. On Earth, the Big Bang remains the prevailing cosmological theory of the universe's creation.
===The Infinity Stones===
, a form of relic radiation originating from the Big Bang was traced to the six Infinity Stones. In particular, when the Mind Stone triggered Wanda Maximoff’s latent mystical abilities to harness Chaos Magic as the Scarlet Witch, the radiation was ever-present, which was noted by S.W.O.R.D. during their investigation on the Westview Anomaly.WandaVision: 1.04: We Interrupt This Program
The Stones were heavily sought out by civilizations and armies across the history of the universe, until Thanos, the only wielder of all six stones destroyed them on Planet 0259-S after eliminating half of all life at the end of the Infinity War.Avengers: Endgame
==Trivia==
*The Big Bang is the earliest event in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
==Behind the Scenes==
*The Big Bang sequence in Eternals took nearly a full year to craft. Chloé Zhao brought in references such as and a lot of documentaries for the team.
*According to Eternals VFX supervisor Jelmer Boskma, the Big Bang sequence required an enormous amount of effects. It was split into three parts for different compositors to work on and they were stitched together to make one seamless shot. The VFX team applied footage from NASA in the sequence.‘Wow, that’s a lot of ownership. That is rare for us in visual effects.’
