Massachusetts Institute of Technology physicist Alan Guth theorized that during a fraction of a second immediately after the explosion known as the Big Bang, the universe underwent phenomenal growth. It ballooned faster than the speed of light from being smaller than an atom to a size larger than astronomers can see with their most powerful telescopes. Nearly every-thing that now exists had its origin during this expansion, which Guth calls inflation. (WSJ, Jan 2/91)
