Abstract
A contracting universe, for parameter k = +1 in Robertson Walker metric at very high temperatures close to the singularity is modelled as a highly dense assembly of photons. We use the black body approximation for assembly of photons to show that available photon states in the phase space are completely filled up at temperature TS = (5.52). 1025K. When the temperature increases beyond TS, the system transforms to a highly unstable, superheated, non - equilibrium state, and leads to the inflation of space - time and the big bang.
