Francisco González de Posada, president of the Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Humanities of Lanzarote and full academician of the Spanish Royal National Academy of Medicine, will deliver on March 12 at the headquarters of the Institute of Engineering of Spain the conference “El problema del origen del Universo: el Big Bang y el Génesis” (The problem of the origin of the Universe: the Big Bang and Genesis), a subject of recurring actuality that these days returns to be news for the defense of the British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking of the denominated Proposal without Limits, according to which neither time, neither space nor neither matter would exist before the Big Bang, in the same way that the current universe, in accelerated expansion, has neither limits nor borders. A theory, also, that feeds the existence of a hypothetical genesis of the matter-space-time dimension.
