according to scientific measurements and theory:
universe size is 93 billion light years across
universe is 13.7 billion years old
question was: how is this possible?
context: When the big bang happened, all things came into existence........if the universe is only 13.7 billions years old, then how can it be the size of something that takes light 93 billion years to cross? Is it that space expands faster than light? Or could it be that light started long after the universe was started?
Our Universe continues to expand. The oldest light is around 13.5 billion years old; the place that light originated is now 93 billion light years away.
So according to Einstein, mass cannot exceed the speed of light. This has been proven through experiment time and time again, most notably in the LHC. So it seems as though, the scientific theory is that light did not occur during the big bang, but started long after, being that things just had not got to a point to emit light? Seem reasonable.
