      I think the universe was created with the Big Bang. This is the idea that there was a lot of high energy and density material rapidly expanding and cooling. There were loads of particles crashing into each other and causing new chemical reactions. Eventually, the denser areas in the universe starting to attract dust and particles and began to form gas clouds and stars and eventually planets. I honestly don’t know why it all started, or what (if anything) existed before the Big Bang…

      Big bang for me too like Rebecca – a lot of the evidence certainallypoints in that direction!

      I believe the Universe was created in the Big Bang, as to why it was created I have no idea! I think there might be a cycle of Universes being made, destroyed and re-made, or there might be many Universes we can’t see, but if there is a purpose to the Universe being here I am not sure what it is.
