Not sure what you are referring to, as the main rival to Big Bang Cosmology (BBC)-- the idea that our Universe has always existed in (about) its present state -- existed as far back as ancient Greek philosophers, and was held all cosmologists well into the 1900s. Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre first proposed an expanding universe as a physical reality (as opposed to a mathematical idea) with observational consequences in 1931, but the acceptance of a universe with a starting point was resisted until the cosmic microwave background radiation was discovered in 1964.
Inflationary cosmology -- a subset of BBC -- was developed by Alan Guth in 1980 to explain some observations that BBC, on its own, could not easily deal with.

What sort of radiation suggested evidence for the Big Bang?
The existence, isotropy, and spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation (cmbr) is extremely easy to explain if Big Bang Cosmology is true; it is impossible to reasonably explain even its existence with any alternate cosmological hypothesis.
What happens if a hypothesis does not explain an observation?
If a hypothesis does not explain an observation, it is rejected. A hypothesis is basically just an educated guess, so it could be wrong, or right.
Explain Harry Hess contribution to Plate Tectonic Theory?
Harry Hess developed the idea of sea floor spreading. Which help better prove Alfred Wegener's Continental Drift Hypothesis.
How does the existence of organisms in hot springs relate to the scientific hypothesis of how life forms arose on earth?
That's a bit of a nonsense question. The existence of life is consistent with *any* and *every* hypothesis that tries to explain the existence of life, scientific or not. The existence of life is the very thing that the hypothesis is trying to explain, so necessarily the hypothesis assumes it and must therefore be consistent with it. The same goes for the *kind* of life we find on Earth: since any scientific hypothesis must explain the life we find here, such a hypothesis must necessarily be consistent with the life we find.
Does a scientific hypothesis describe an observed pattern in nature without attempting to explain it?
False

What is m-m hypothesis?
Hypothesis? Hypothesis is a proposal intended to explain certain facts or observations
What is a hypothesis that does not explain an observation?
When you are using the scientific method, you would try to imagine a hypothesis which explains an observation, but you might not succeed. A hypothesis that does not explain an observation would be considered a failed hypothesis. You would then need to invent a different hypothesis.
Did your data support your hypothesis?
so you have to put in did it help you explain your hypothesis
What does the medical term hypothesis mean?

Explain Niels Bohr compound nucleus hypothesis?

Is hypothesis an educated guess to explain a phenomenon?
Yes, a hypothesis is an educated guess or a proposed explanation to a phenomenon. It is based on prior knowledge and observations and serves as a starting point for further investigation and experimentation.
What happens if a hypothesis does not explain an observation?
If a hypothesis does not explain an observation, it is rejected. A hypothesis is basically just an educated guess, so it could be wrong, or right.
What is the of a conclusion?
to explain why the data support or reject the hypothesis
What if the results do not support the hypothesis you were testing?
Then explain why it was wrong
