Starting Line:
Did the Universe Start Out as a 1D Line?
Whilst the Big Bang Theory is favoured by most physicists as an explanation for the universe's origins, there are alternative theories being advanced.
One states that our 3D universe originated as a 1D line that grew to become more intricate.
From MMN:
"In 1-D, there's a new sense of unification," Stojkovic told Life's Little Mysteries, a sister site to SPACE.com. "Right now, you see the diverse world because you're in 3-D. When you go down to 1-D, things become much simpler. Properties that distinguish all the different particles don't exist anymore, so they all become alike. There is no rotation. All you have is forward and backward, and energy moving in either direction."
