Roger Penrose’s Quantum Universe: How Many Time Has the Big Bang Happened? | Quantum Physics | Sleep Entangled

Welcome to Sleep Entangled, where science and serenity meet in thoughtful, slow explorations of reality itself. In this long-form, calming lecture, we explore one of the most astonishing ideas in modern cosmology: Sir Roger Penrose’s theory of Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC) — the proposal that our universe never truly ends, but repeats endlessly in cycles, each new Big Bang rising from the stretched, quiet ashes of the last.
🌠 What if the cosmos never dies — but is reborn again and again? What if time itself is recycled, and the Big Bang was not the beginning, but a continuation? In this reflective journey, you’ll drift through Penrose’s vision of the eternal universe, guided by calm narration and clear scientific storytelling.
✨ In this episode, you’ll learn: How Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC) suggests that time and scale eventually lose meaning Why the end of the universe might resemble its beginning — a seamless handoff between aeons How entropy resets, solving one of cosmology’s deepest mysteries The evidence for previous universes hidden in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) Why Penrose believes black hole evaporation and Hawking radiation may leave “fingerprints” from past aeons The philosophical meaning of a universe without a first moment or final end Penrose’s theory challenges everything we think we know about beginnings, endings, and time itself. It proposes that the universe is a cosmic continuum — a grand cycle of expansion, silence, and renewal, repeating forever in elegant geometry. You’ll also discover how this theory connects with Penrose’s lifelong fascination with geometry, consciousness, and the deep structure of spacetime — where physics, mathematics, and philosophy converge.
