I'd assume black, no? Just total, unending, absolute darkness? Space is mostly vacuum with unimaginable distances between anything, and that empty, void space is basically pockets of the nothingness that existed before the big bang, so I'd (with my limited experience) assume something similar.
Though how it works? Yeah I have no fucking clue man, it's basically incomprehensible isn't it? Just the absence of existence. If I remember right, I heard at the time that all the matter of the universe was condensed into a singular point, and the big bang was basically that exploding, but it's hard to imagine that it was the only thing that existed, and that there was nothingness beyond it.
You ever wonder if human minds just biologically aren't equipped to understand or comprehend this stuff? Same way ants can't possibly fathom the existence of radio waves or apes can't understand trigonometry or how it works?
Absolutely. I am completely convinced of the fact that there is knowledge that we can never possess simply because our minds aren't capable of understanding it. I mean nobody understands quantum theory. Some people can do the maths and make the right predictions etc, but they have absolutely no idea what's really going on. I think that's at the boundary of our understanding. Which means there's other stuff being the boundary, and other stuff way way beyond the boundary. But, I think that in the same way you can explain general relativity to a child in simple terms, if we produce AI that can grasp higher concepts, it could explain it to us.
I'm disinclined to believe that if for no other reason than I'm sure similar things have been said many times throughout human history about any number of subjects that were then much more fully explored and understood. Anatomy, biology, genetics, etc. all seemed to be fields that were "mysteries too far beyond human comprehension"...until they weren't.
