Not directly. Scientists are not sure of the conditions immediately after the Big Bang, which (we believe) created the universe.
Einstein's principles say that matter and energy cannot be destroyed or created, but just converted from one form to another. Immediately after the Big Bang, there was probably too much energy for "matter" to form at all, and the high density of energy allowed matter to form only after the universe had expanded significantly from the original point.
Only some time after the Big Bang could stars have coalesced from the hydrogen that formed from the high energy "soup" of the Big Bang. Those first stars, probably super-massive ones, probably formed and died quickly in enormous supernovas.
The fact that we are here now, made up of carbon, oxygen and other elements, and that the Earth contains substantial amounts of iron, lead, gold and other heavy elements indicates that the solar system was formed from the remnants of one or more supernova explosions, which are the only way (we know of) that our matter could have been created.
It is important to understand that the Big Bang theory is not a "fact"; we weren't there to watch and we cannot be CERTAIN. But scientists are able to form theories about what might have occurred during the early moments of the universe, and to perform experiments to either prove or disprove them, and so far the results of the experiments do correspond to the predictions implied in the Big Bang theory.
Experiments with high-powered nuclear accelerators such as the new Large Hadron Collider will, in future years, contribute greatly to our understanding of how the universe formed and what the far future holds for the universe.

How did the big bang theory form the sun?
Hmph. The Big Bang theory did not form the sun. The big bang formed the elements hydrogen, then hydrogen began to create helium. Then stars were formed out of these two elements and that is how our sun was created.
Are stars and planets formed after the Big Bang?
Everything happened after the big bang.
What star made The Big Bang?
The Big Bang (ultimately) made the stars, not the other way around. The universe wasn't even here for there to be stars in before the Big Bang.
Why do we have stars and sky?
After the big bang when the temperature of the universe cooled down, the gases combined to form matter in the form of planets.
How was carbon first formed in stars?
by the big bang. the big bang happened and caused different gasses floating everywhere and combining to form different gasses like atom
Compare the elements formed in the big bang with elements formed through nuclear fusion in stars?
No elements were formed in the big bang. After quite some time, hydrogen began to form, and it is the main constituent of stars. The main by-product of nuclear fusion in stars is helium.
When did the first stars and blacks holes form?
The first population III stars formed about 400 million years after the big bang. The first black holes would have formed when these stars exploded, about a few millions years later.See related link for a timeline of the big bang.
What Set of the stars in the sky?
The big bang.
How long after the big bang did it take for stars to form?
the theory states that atoms formed during the big bang (like right as the big bang happened) Protons and neutrons were allowed to form about one second after the Big Bang. Electrons joined to nuclei to form permanent atomic bonds about 377,000 years later.
Where does the nebula get its gas to form stars?
Most of the nebulae that exist now are formed from the expelled remnants of dead stars. The gas that made up the original nebulae form with the Big Bang.
Is the big bang theory is the cause of the different sizes of a stars?
No, not really. The Big Bang theory has to do with the universe as a whole, not piddly little things like stars.
How did stars become in space?
Look up the big bang, its about how the universe was created- but the big bang is the same way stars got, and are still getting created.
