The Grand Design
The Grand Design
Quantum Model:-
● Universe possesses a starting point and is currently expanding, with galaxies drifting farther apart.
This suggests a past when the universe was smaller—a concept now known as the Big Bang.
2. The universe primarily consists of hydrogen, alongside approximately 23% helium and traces of
lithium, formed through nuclear fusion reactions.
● Inflation is the first phase of expansion, when universe suddenly blew up to ten million times.
● As per the General Theory of Relativity (GTR), inflation-induced expansion wouldn't be entirely uniform.
Origin of the universe
● According to GTR, there is a point in time called a
singularity. So, we cannot extent GTR to a beginning
of universe because it is break down at some point.

Feynman sum over histories
● We surely know that origin of universe is
quantum event, so we can use quantum
theory to predict the origin.
● Earth have eccentricity of 2% and lie in goldilocks region, where distance from sun where
liquid water can exist
● Our universe and it’s laws appear to have a design that both is tailor-made to support us and, if
we are to exist, leaves little room for alteration.
Weak Anthropic Principle : The universe appears to be fine-tuned or suited for the existence of
intelligent life because if it weren't, we wouldn't be here to observe it.
Strong Anthropic Principle : The fact that we exist imposes constraints not just on our
environment but on the possible laws of nature themselves.
What next?
● Many people would like us to use these coincidences as evidence of the work of God
● The goal is to find not just a single theory that explains all the forces but also one that
explains the fundamental environmental laws and constants we have been talking
about.
● Why M-theory?
