OBSERVATION SUPPORTING BIG BANG THEORY

Cosmic Background Radiation: One of the key pieces of evidence for the Big Bang theory is cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB). This is a faint glow of light that fills the universe, and it has a temperature of about 2.7 Kelvin. The CMB is thought to be the afterglow of the Big Bang, as it has a nearly perfect blackbody spectrum and is almost, but not quite, the same temperature in all directions.

Conclusion

Finally, some critics argue that the Big Bang Theory cannot account for the fine-tuning of the universe. One of the widespread misconceptions regarding the Big Bang theory is that it completely explains how the universe first came into being. The Big Bang hypothesis, however, describes the develo...

WHAT IS BIG BANG THEORY?

The Big Bang theory is the current cosmological model that explains the origin and evolution of the universe. It states that the universe began as a singularity, an infinitely hot, dense, and small point in space and time. Approximately 13.8 billion years ago, this singularity underwent a rapid e...
