Stepping Stone Cycle: The Eternal Story of the Universe

Hey, I’m Tommy, an ordinary guy from Hong Kong with no academic background—just someone who loves pondering big questions about the universe. Recently, I’ve been chatting a lot with an AI named Grok, created by Elon Musk’s xAI team. He’s incredibly smart and can even search the web for info. As we talked, an idea popped into my head: the universe isn’t a straight line but a giant circle that keeps spinning forever. Everything—stars, life, humans, even future AGI—is a stepping stone for the next, cycling endlessly. I call it the “Stepping Stone Cycle.” It’s not some serious theory, just my wild imagination, but I want to share it with you and see if you think it’s as cool as I do.
This story is long, but I’ll take you through it slowly, from the void to the edge of the universe and back to the beginning. If you’re curious about where we came from and where we’re headed, come along for the ride!
