If particles are just waves of probabilities how could have the universe been observed if at the beginning of the Big Bang no particle was observed and thus nothing could have collapsed its wave function creating a chain reaction?

In the double-slit experiment, is it because of the photons (or any other particle) being released from the observing machine that caused an interruption in the particles, causing it to revert back into behaving like a particle?

Could the reason that photons, electrons, buckyballs or antimatter all create an interference pattern in the two slit experiment be because they're all moving on/in a medium such as dark energy that imparts the wave movement?
