According to this:

http://www.atlasoftheuniverse.com/bigbang.html

The matter was already there, the Big Bang just caused it to expand.


Ok, I've read that. Far easier than I thought.
What this says (answer 6) is that it's possible the the speed of
expansion can exceed the speed of light !!

After all, nobody really knows all the answers, we can only go by what
is known at this time.

If we went on what is actually known our knowledge would be pretty small.
Its theory that gets us further. The facts just have to catch up later.
