Roger Penrose talks about the "conformal cyclic universe" in
his Nobel acceptance speech: (around 27:30)
<https://youtu.be/DpPFn0qzYT0?t=1652>
and about observing signals form a previous "eon" before the
big bang.

But wouldn't his own theorem predict an inevitable singularity
in the big bang? And what is the concept of a singularity if
you can apparently see through it? The drawing of the conformal
cyclic structure looks more like a continuous transition than
like any singularity..
