This is very interesting! So, for every neutrino created from the sun, there could also be an anti-neutrino. If there is no counter-part to these tiny particles, that would explain the build up of matter created from the big-bang! I just read "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene, PhD, which also touches on the idea of how string theory, quantum mechanics, and Einstein's Theory of Relativity are all linked to eachother on several levels. His explanation of space and time is not from neutrinos, as this PBS link explains, but from 11 dimensions where "space tears and repairs itself", and the smallest quarks to the largest supernovas are generated by "vibrations of microscopically tiny loops of energy". It was written long before this recent introduction of the neutrino thory, but it would be interesting to hear the authors thoughts on this new understanding of the universe!

It is ridiculous to think of Big Bang with the whole universe as 'one
point' as the start of the universe. Why should there be any start at all.
And why anticipate an end? When even the number of 'rational numbers' are
countless why can't the universe be endless. We have solar system and
similar systems,Galaxies and similar galaxies and may as well have our
universe and similar universes even if each one came from some big bang.
I do agree that I may not be able to follow an euclidian straight line as
the straightness may not be possible to physically create, but still I dont
see an end to the theoretical 'straight line' which will always be endless.
If something is limitting it what is beyond this limit. Therefore I don't
agree that space may have an end or limit.

The matter and universe is likely to have a 'steady state' behaviour of
matter creation and transformation and energy matter conversions.
In a radical way, I seem to think that at the heart of any bit of matter has
to be an equivalent of a 'Black Hole' because the gravitational attraction
being proportional to the inverse square of the distance, and therefore
infinite when the distance is zero and no matter can escape this attraction.
Only a nuclear force can break this and convert the entire mass into energy.
I need to find this unifying way of explaining this phenomena of Matter.
