Hakeem says there was more than one big bang. There were ten.
Our host answers the biggest questions about his latest book, Why Do We Exist? Like, how the idea of ‘now’ depends on your relative motion or that there might be a time before time. Reality keeps unravelling as he explains that at a certain distance space recedes even faster than light. To top it off, the conversation enters the Realm of Imagination, and joins Hakeem in his optimistic view of human space travel, world peace, and even the apocalypse.
