Physicist Neil Turok: Big Bang Wasn't the Beginning

Well, the Catholics may be upset, but a cyclic universe fits pretty well into heathen cosmology. Turok certainly isn't the first to have this thought, and it's always struck me as both more intuitive and more satisfying than any of the other options.

Physicist Neil Turok discusses his theory that the Big Bang is just one in an endless series of universal expansions and contractions -- a theory that has provoked the ire of many physicists, as well as the Catholic Church.
