Physicist Neil Turok, recipient of the James Clerk Maxwell Medal and Prize, and the John Torrence Tate Award for International Leadership in Physics, joins Curt Jaimungal and Theories of Everything to discuss his new hypothesis regarding the origins of the universe.
Building on Stephen Hawking’s geometrical model, Turok proposes a theoretical approach that avoids the singularity at the Big Bang by suggesting a minimal, mirror universe scenario without requiring inflation.
