Both are evidence in favor of Big Bang Cosmology (BBC). Hubble Redshift is easy to explain with BBC, not so easy (but possible) with alternatives. The existence, isotropy, and spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation is also easy to explain with BBC; but impossible to explain with any alternative. It's why BBC went from minority viewpoint amongst cosmologists to (pretty much) universal acceptance in a couple of decades.

Redshift refers to the stretching of light waves towards longer wavelengths, which occurs when an object is moving away from an observer. Cosmic background radiation, also known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB), is residual radiation from the early stages of the universe that has been redshifted over time and is now observed as microwave radiation. The redshift of the CMB provides strong evidence for the expansion of the universe and supports the Big Bang theory.

How do cosmic background radiation the chemical composition of the universe redshift of light and movement of galaxies support the theory of the Big Bang?

Redshift: The only reasonable explanation for the redshift is that most galaxies are moving away from us.As for the cosmic background radiation and the chemical composition, both of these closely match what is expected from the models about the Big Bang.


What is the evidance for the big bang?

The expansion of the Universe, as can be seen by the redshift of distant galaxies; also, the cosmic background radiation. Read the Wikipedia article on "Big Bang" for more details.

What is the leftover thermal energy from the big bang?

The radiation left over from the big bang is found in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. As the universe expanded and cooled, the intense hard gamma radiation that existed became radio waves in the low gigahertz region, characteristic of a temperature around 30 Kelvin.
