We Just Don't Know (Yet?)

"Physicists have many theories for the beginning of our universe: A big bang, a big bounce, a black hole, a network, a collision of membranes, a gas of strings, and the list goes on. What does this mean? It means we don't know how the universe began. And the reason isn't just that we're lacking data, the reason is that science is reaching its limits when we try to understand the initial condition of the entire universe."

Did the Big Bang Happen?  (* I have an issue with the terminology used in the video: I think that the everyday use of the term "Big Bang" to mean a single point where our universe began and expanded IS "settled science", but that every speculation "before" then is not. Sabine delves into the "before" issue in more detail here.)
