There is no limit to what can fit in your suitcase if you are ok with creating a singularity.

    I know we’ll probably never know, but I always wonder how the singularity came to be. Some will say it was a previous universe that reverted back and has been infinitely doing so, but how did it start??

      There are ways for things to come from nothing in quantum mechanics. Positive/negative particle pairs can pop into existence because their average energy is 0. They’re typically very shortly lived though. It’s possible it didn’t come from anything and just was. Time is also part of space-time, so there wasn’t a “before” most likely either
