When we examine some of the hypotheses that have contributed to the acceptance of inflationary ideas, we can more clearly see the metaphysical nature of some of the current cosmological conjecture. In particular, there is one hypothesis that has now gained widespread acceptance: The hypothesis that the universe may have originated from nothing.
This is something that follows from a principle known as the law of conservation of energy, which states that if energy is not added to a system or allowed to escape, it must stay in the same state. Energy may change forms, but the overall amount does not change. However, as the earth approaches the sun, it will move at an ever-increasing speed and receive steadily more energy for motion. However, because the system's total energy remains constant, the gravitational energy must subsequently turn increasingly negative. It is necessary to consider that the earth's velocity has been slowed down, possibly by powerful braking missiles or another means and that it has been allowed to settle into an orbit that is identical to the one it currently occupies. In this scenario, the majority of the kinetic energy would have been wasted. But gravitational energy continues to make a considerable contribution.
Because we lack the resources to conduct an experiment to test this hypothesis, we cannot test whether the universe actually began in this manner by traveling back in time. Similarly, we cannot test whether this can also occur in other universes. Finally, we do not know whether the universe's content of matter and energy is truly zero. When two numbers are this large and appear to be equal, it may be difficult to determine with certainty whether or not they are equal.
In this manuscript, I will put forward some examples of cases in which the amount of energy had a negative value, it is a theoretical guesswork which has gone so far that the experiment has lagged far behind it and I will also mention further comments on the nature of these theoretical attempts, although it is better for our moment to continue the topic of our discussion and I would like to ask the following question: Are the theories of the inflationary universe a matter of physics or metaphysics?
