A software program set off the big bang outside of space and time. It instantly created time and space. Triggering initial quantum fluctuations were coded into the big bang module to ignite the big bang. The high-energy furnace was ignited. The ignition caused an extremely high density and high-temperature environment. Space was made, and time was started. The Universe is made up of three things, normal matter-energy, dark matter, and dark energy. All items are triune with binary interactives. As the Universe cooled, the simplest elements formed. Gravity gradually drew the matter together to create the first stars and galaxies. Ordinary matter consists of the atoms that make up stars, planets, human beings, and every other visible object in the Universe. Gravity is the thing that keeps the atmosphere near the surface of the Earth.
The original software program is still in operation. It maintains and runs the Universe.
The inflation field spread out early on. The Higgs mechanism for electroweak transition kicked in. The rest of the fields followed soon after. The particles for the fields didn’t show up until later after things had cooled down.
A vacuum is a closed, almost empty space. This almost empty space vacuum is virtually empty compared to the masses that reside within. The vacuum of space came from quantum fluctuations in the Universe’s early development. The vacuum of space results from quantum elementary energy particles in the form of a cosmic fabric that has an equalized pressure universally. Quantum fluctuations cannot change the total energy or momentum of a system.
The Universe was created out of an almost symmetric vacuum; everything that followed should have been virtually symmetrical. But it wasn’t, not even at its fundamental level. There were many symmetry-breaking interactions in particle physics (CP violations). Particles can destroy themselves through collision or decay. This happens when a particle and its antiparticle have slightly different decay times. The decay of matter and antimatter are out of sync. The matter/antimatter asymmetry process results in the matter having a slight edge. Also, thermal equilibrium went out of synch during inflation. There are no antimatter boundary regions within the visible Universe. Either antimatter galaxies didn’t form, or they only exist beyond the horizon of our observable Universe.
Outer space is almost empty and not quite a perfect vacuum. Even the most remote spot of outer space has gas, dust, radiation, gravity, etc. Even the coldest, blackest section of intergalactic space is flooded with vacuum energy. The Universe is 13 billion years old. Yet it’s 45 billion light-years in diameter. The inflation phase of the Universe is responsible for the difference.

Randomness can’t even build a bobsled. Ditto for natural selection.
This is air pressure. We are under pressure because every square inch of the Earth’s surface stands beneath a 14-pound column of air, extending about 70 miles up into space. That air stays put because gravity is attracting it to Earth. The air’s weight above it pressurizes all the air at the surface. So there is no force to push air out into space. A vacuum doesn’t suck; it’s just the absence of anything pushing back. In fact, at this altitude and above, we don’t lose the atmosphere to vacuum but to radiation from the sun smacking molecules and sweeping them away.
In quantum mechanics, systems can change states without a cause; there only needs to be the possibility of the state into which they can change. This is also true for the quantum vacuum. Nothing is one state, but a fluctuation in which there is something, a non-zero region of a quantum field, is another state.
