"I don't know" is the only place one can start from, to know. Assumed truths generally aren't investigated nor developed. But good ideas are.
My idea (not a new one) is that the space of the universe is contingent upon a preexisting substance. The substance has always existed. What began was the opening of our vacuum bubble of voided space-time.
We can extrapolate backwards forever and reach reasonable approximations with the data we can collect from within the bubble. But the universe unfolded in the forwards direction and we are still putting together that story.

Consider me a satellite forever orbiting,
I knew the rules but the rules did not know me, guaranteed." - Eddie Vedder
