Not initially. Indeed, his comments to its first proponent, Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre, was "Your calculations are correct, but your physics is abominable." Einstein felt more comfortable with a Universe that was eternally stable, even though the general relativity that Einstein developed did not permit such a Universe to exist. When Edwin Hubble showed that all distant galaxies had a red shift -- exactly as Big Bang Cosmology predicted -- Einstein admitted that his rejection of LeMaitre's idea was his biggest blunder.

Who is for and against the big bang theory?

All people who believe in the value of observational evidence accept Big Bang Cosmology, just like they accept a heliocentric solar system. In both cases, no other proposal matches what we see, and every significant alternative has been falsified. There are some people who oppose Big Bang Cosmology based solely on their initial presumption of reality: that our entire Universe is significantly younger than 100,000 years. If you START with that presumption, Big Bang Cosmology is, of course, false. The problem is that no observational evidence whatsoever supports that presumption.


How will Albert Einstein be remembered?

In my opinion, I think I shall always remember him because of the "Big Boom Bang" theory.


Is the number of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy evidence in support of Big Bang Cosmology?

no the no. of stars in the milky way is not the evidence in support of the big bang cosmology.


What are the 3 theory's of the earth big bang?

The big bang theory is a model of cosmology it does not have any relation with earth's creation .


What type of scientist are associated with the big bang theory?

Scientists who study Big Bang Cosmology are (generally) referred to as cosmologists.


When was the big bang theory completed?

A Catholic Jesuit Priest by the name of George LeMaitre was the first to scientifically and mathematically develop the idea of our Unvierse being the result space expanding from a single point in time. He did so in 1927 to show that Albert Einstein's ideas on cosmology were, at best, ad-hoc. When Edwin Hubble showed that LeMaitre's idea correctly predicted the universal recession of galaxies, Einstein admitted that his original ideas were "the worst mistake of my life." Einstein and Hubble are celebrated scientists; LeMaitre is, for some reason, almost forgotten.


Who is theory was it for the big bang?

Einstein


Which theory suggests that for every big bang there is a crunch?

The Oscillatory Theory of cosmology.


What is the big bang theory of earth's creation about?

Big Bang Cosmology deals with the start (not necessary a creation) of our Universe as a whole, not with our Earth.


Who is the three evolutionists who discovered the big bang theory?

Jesuit priest George LeMaitre, in 1927, first proposed the idea that became known as the Big Bang. Einstein at first ridiculed the idea, but later accepted it after Edwin Hubble showed that distances between galaxies were, indeed, growing. George Gamow later developed Big Bang Cosmology, predicting (in 1946) a microwave background.


Why do some people believe in the big bang?

Not just "some," but ALL people who examine the observational facts of our Universe accept Big Bang Cosmology, and idea first proposed by Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre. Pretty much every observaton predicted by BB (along with Inflation) has been observed, and nothing has been observed that would contradict its basic premise. To say "some people believe" in Big Bang Cosmology is like saying "some people believe" in gravity.


When did stable atoms form during the big bang?

About 378,000 years after the Big Bang. For more details, check the Wikipedia article on "Recombination (cosmology)".
