at the begining of the universe, when everything was more conveniently close together
were there no planets suitable for life because everything was simply too hot?

Re: at the begining of the universe, when everything was more conveniently close together
Every time people bring up questions about the beginning of the universe, or dinosaurs, or even people who lived thousands of years ago, I think "why the hell should we care?"...
I mean, we're here now, that's what matters... and what matters even more is where we're going in the future.
So, stop putting resources into dead things, and things that have long past. Start to think how we can get off this forsaken piece of dirt floating in space, or how to make the world a better place, instead of digging up old bones.

Because there were no planets, basically.
The first ones to form would be gas giants, which are (as far as we know) devoid of life, and any smaller ones that did coalesce wouldn't be stable enough for anything lasting.

Those do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it. Although I'm not sure how this relates to stars forming.

Re: at the begining of the universe, when everything was more conveniently close together
there were planets because the BIBLE says so:
In the Beginning the EARTH was void and without form. The BIG BANG is a LIE made up by the EVIL atheistic CHARLES DARWIN in order to push GOD out of our LIVES.
REPENT and you will see the TRUTH.

Re: at the begining of the universe, when everything was more conveniently close together
so, if the universe is truely expanding, it should be possible to travel beyond the expanding limit of the universe.. RIGHT? in theory atleast.. what would it smell like in the big nothing?

the BIBLE tells you in REVALATIONS: an ANGEL gets the horn, then he breaks the seal and the world ends. HALLELUJAH I CAN'T WAIT.

I would rather go there and claim ownership of an eternity of nothingness and sell it to Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth.

Probably the equator, since that's where the rotation would be most fastest. Preferably somewhere in the middle of the sea, where there's no light pollution.

If the fastest you can travel is the speed of light and the edge of the universe is expanding away from you at the speed of light you probably won't catch it (even from common sense and ignoring relativity).
PS I see Brother Edward has foresworn his blasphemous career of perpetuating the evil lies of physics for a life of chastity, repentenace and prayer. However before you go we should all go burn down the observatories so something like this will never happen again.

Re: at the begining of the universe, when everything was more conveniently close together
the younger the universe, the more full of anger it was. Now that it is all old and shit, life has found an easy going and understanding eviorement to live on.
I am right for the wrong reasons on this one =/

I thought life still didn't exist because humanity is still too mundane?

No, we don't, but we have a fair idea. For example, at the start of the universe we can pin down the temperature when nucleosynthesis happened from the relative abundances of hydrogen, helium, deuterium, lithium, etc in first generation stars (eg in old globular clusters).
