The title text claims this theory "Finally unifies cosmic inflation and regular inflation." Cosmic inflation refers to the expansionary phase of the universe shortly after the Big Bang; this would explain why that happened with the simple proposition that it was a bubble and inflated like regular bubbles do. Unification of theories is a popular goal among scientists, since it makes it possible to provide a single explanation for multiple phenomena. | The title text claims this theory "Finally unifies cosmic inflation and regular inflation."
