From the Cosmic Microwave Background CMB the flatness problem and the horizon problem arose. An extraordinarily rapid increase of distances in the early universe, the Cosmic Inflation, was proposed as a possible solution (Guth, Phys. Rev. D, 1981), whereby suggested mechanisms for such an increase have been criticized (Steinhardt: Scientific American, 2011). We propose a theory that explains the Cosmic Inflation by a sequence of symmetry breaking phase transitions at critical densities (Carmesin, H.-O.: Vom Big Bang bis heute mit Gravitation - Model for the Dynamics of Space. Berlin: Verlag Dr. Köster, 2017.). Our theory applies first principles only, namely gravitation and quantum physics, contains no fit parameter, applies fundamental constants only, namely the constant of gravitation G, the velocity of light c and the Planck constant h, is in excellent quantitative agreement with observations, namely the critical density, the duration of cosmic inflation, the temperature fluctuations as well as the factor of increase correspond to the CMB and the flatness and horizon problems are solved.
