In Big Bang theory, the state of the Universe is a singularity in early times, meaning that the Universe was once infinitely small.

However, Eddington's revised theory requires a minimum length of space-time at early times, which means that the Universe could not have been a singularity.

Any kind of singularity-free Universe would solve the singularity problem that has bothered scientists about general relativity, since a singularity cannot be mathematically defined.
