What is the currently accepted theory?

  We have no theories working at those conditions. Wiki says > General relativity also predicts that the initial state of the universe, at the beginning of the Big Bang, was a singularity of infinite density and temperature.[6][obsolete source] However, classical gravitational theories are not expected to be accurate under these conditions, and a quantum description is likely needed[7]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_singularity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_singularity

    > [6][obsolete source] I didn't know but apparently wikipedia treats old sources as obsolete, doesn't matter if there's new information or not that would make it obsolete. I wonder if any sources supporting the notion that the earth is round must be updated every couple of years with a new source or study.

      That exemplifies a much deeper problem than good information, “Good Law”: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_law https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_law As an aside, the earth is almost flat, just not nearly as flat as the Universe.

          It’s in the Library of Babylon. My standing citation.

      Obsolete doesn't just mean old, it means superseded by newer information.

        I agree with you, wikipedia seems to disagree with both of us
