According to me a bloke called Siddhattha Gotama (otherwise known as Buddha) was walking in the foothills of the Himalayas listening to Hawkwind through his headphones and completely stoned off of his head when he suddenly had a vision and Buddha said "People with opinions just go around bothering each other."
And thus time began (about 2.30pm)
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.

If Big Bang is a moment in time, then time began about 14.Billion years ago.
Before then, the universe was an infinite 'stretch' of dense matter. Defining this is impossible. Hawking called this the 'no-boundary proposal' - time and space, he said, are finite, but they don’t have any boundaries or starting or ending points, the same way that the planet Earth is finite but has no edge.
Another idea is that the 'Big Bang' isn't the beginning of time, but rather that it was a moment of symmetry. In this idea, prior to the Big Bang, there was another universe, identical to this one but with entropy increasing toward the past instead of toward the future.
A related theory holds that the Big Bang wasn't the beginning of everything, but rather a moment in time when the universe switched from a period of contraction to a period of expansion. This "Big Bounce" notion suggests that there could be infinite Big Bangs as the universe expands, contracts and expands again.
Hope this helps.

Mmmm depends on how you define 'time'.

Time, then, is irrelevant in the structure of space and space is a fiction of time. When we’re dead.

With respect, your thinking is soooo two dimensional; which to be fair, was very twentieth century.
By 2020 the concept of infinity, of there being no end to time, had a third element added: lockdown.
Tbf I've no idea what I was talking about. I just heard my mate tell me that once and decided to steal it as my own. Rum does that to me. I turn into a pirate.. lol
