What is the currently accepted theory?

We have no theories working at those conditions. Wiki says

> General relativity also predicts that the initial state of the universe, at the beginning of the Big Bang, was a singularity of infinite density and temperature.[6][obsolete source] However, classical gravitational theories are not expected to be accurate under these conditions, and a quantum description is likely needed[7].

    I didn't know but apparently wikipedia treats old sources as obsolete, doesn't matter if there's new information or not that would make it obsolete.

    I wonder if any sources supporting the notion that the earth is round must be updated every couple of years with a new source or study.
