All present observational evidence supports Big Bang Cosmology, and (in some cases) rules out the Steady State Hypothesis or a Universe younger than 9000 years. This evidence includes:

1) A Hubble Expansion Constant that shows that all of our Universe being was packed into a dense state about 13.7 billion years ago.

2) An isotropic CMBR with a spectrum identical to a black-body of temperature 2.7 K -- EXACTLY as predicted.

3) A Universe of about 90% hydrogen and 10% helium -- again, as predicted.

4) Young galaxies being seen only far away from us, and old galaxies being seen only close to us.

5) No white dwarf stars being seen that are older than about 12 billion years.

6) The ratio of radioactive elements to decay products showing the former can not have existed more than about 12 billion years ago.

Either "the whole Universe was in a hot, dense state; and nearly 14 billion years ago expansion started," or someone has tricked us into seeing such a Universe -- no other possibilities exist.

How does Eisenstein's theory of relativity support the Big Bang theory?

The Theory of Relativity was created by Einstein, not by Eisenstein. Comment: The most obvious thing is that Einstein's equations predicted that the Universe was not "static". So a "Big Bang", expanding Universe fits the theory.

Who discovered the second piece of evidence that supports the big bang theory?

The second major piece of evidence supporting the Big Bang theory was the discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB), which was made by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson in 1965. This faint radiation, uniform across the universe, is considered a remnant of the hot, dense state of the early universe. Their discovery provided crucial support for the Big Bang model, confirming predictions made by cosmologists about the early universe's conditions.


How is the big bang theory is an example od scienctific theory?

Hello i am minakshi answer is that the big bang theory is an example of old scientific theory as big bang theory explains that there was an explosion but the isotropy and the homogenity of the universe is not explained by big bang theory to explain his we connect inflatation theory with big bang theory to explain it so the big bang theory is also an example of old scientific theory.

What is one major piece of evidence that supports the validity of the Big Bang theory?

One major piece of evidence supporting the validity of the Big Bang theory is the cosmic microwave background radiation, which is a faint glow of radiation that fills the universe and is considered a remnant of the early stages of the universe's expansion.


Which theory of the universe did the 1964 discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation support?

The 1964 discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation supported the Big Bang theory of the universe. This radiation is considered a remnant of the early stages of the universe when it was hot and dense, aligning with the predictions of the Big Bang model.
