If the universe is expanding against gravity where is it getting the energy to expand from?

I thought it was the energy from the big bang? Curious as well now. Not a science guy but stumbled on the board.

it's paying energy... the universe is cooling

The universe's cooling is a result of expansion not the cause.

Natural state of spacetime is inflation. It's figured that beyond our bubble of stable space, it's nothing but rapidly expanding space and some other universal bubbles that have formed from this sea. This ties into the Big Rip. When the rate of expansion of a universe is so great that you get to the quark level, the amount of energy needed in one place to split a quark is so great that it creates 2 more quarks. Energy is converted to matter. Dark energy is constantly being created, but once it reaches that point, a big bang happens and dark energy is drained into the creation of new matter. Every quark can theoretically become the seed of a new universe.

Lately the show has been a bit too simple for me. The host keeps things slow and simple. While this is nice for some people, I like it better when they were doing really complicated stuff. Like that multipart series where the previous host would discuss geodesics, dimensions, and such.

Pretend the middle is "God".
The petals are the multi-verses.

Now think of each petal in 3d.
You are inside a petal that is just opening. (Upcone)
