Hi Navy person. You pose a good question. Back in the 80's I pulled an artical from the National Geographic where Rich Gore, senior editor answered this question on behalf of National Geographic. He stated that about 20 billion years ago a submicroscopic partical of
space billions of times smaller than the proton of an atom exploded/expanded to eventually produce everything existing. I'm not quoting him, of course, but in a nutshell, that's what he said. i saved the article and will try to find it.
I believe the name of the article was something like "The Once And Forever Universe."
So define space and go figure if this makes sense atol.
