Have they ever figured out where this supposed “big bang” began? Shouldn’t we know where the center of the universe is by simply working backwards from where the universe has expanded to by now?

There is no center of the universe.

The problem is that as far away as we can see objects are receding at speeds approaching the speed of light.
1. We don’t know if there are more distant objects receding faster than the speed of light, and
2. Relativistically speaking, all observers in such a universe would observe exactly what we are observing ....all objects receding up to the speed of light. Therefore all points in the universe are the center of the universe.
...the universe as a singularity.
I think this concept can be attributed to John Wheeler at the University of Texas.
From earth, everything is expanding away from us.
If we travel tons far star we would see everything expanding from that view.
The big bang happened “Everywhere”
It was smaller than a proton..that was the size of the universe when it happened and expanded from there.
So they say...
They have done that. The Big Bang occurred at a place where there is no coordinates and so no way to describe it.
