Hypotheses vary. A popular hypothesis is that the universe originated in a geometrical singularity: a literally immeasurable geometrical point without a size of any kind. There seem to be counterindications to this notion, however, from the field of quantum mechanics, which indicate that the singularity may not have been of zero-size after all.

What is the first dot of the big bang theory?

The Big Bang theory postulates that the universe is expanding from an extremely hot and dense state. It does not necessarily say that this state was a singularity - but a singularity would have been consistent with Einstein's relativity theory. If it was indeed a singularity, then it would have been much smaller than a dot; much smaller even then a proton. In fact, it would have had no size at all.


What are 3 sources of proof for the Big Bang Theory?

1. Redshift of GalaxiesThe redshift of distant galaxies means that the Universe is probably expanding. If we then go back far enough in time, everything must have been squashed together into a tiny dot. The rapid eruption from this tiny dot was the Big Bang.2. Microwave BackgroundVery early in its history, the whole Universe was very hot. As it expanded, this heat left behind a "glow" that fills the entire Universe. The Big Bang theory not only predicts that this glow should exist, but that it should be visible as microwaves - part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum.This is the Cosmic Microwave Background which has been accurately measured by orbiting detectors, and is very good evidence that the Big Bang theory is correct.3. Mixture of ElementsAs the Universe expanded and cooled down, some of the elements that we see today were created. The Big Bang theory predicts how much of each element should have been made in the early universe, and what we see in very distant galaxies and old stars is just right.You cannot look in new stars, like the Sun, for this evidence, because they contain elements that were created in previous generations of stars. As such, the composition of new stars will be very different from the composition of stars that existed 7 billion years ago, shortly after the Big Bang.4. Looking back in timeThe main alternative to the Big Bang theory of the Universe is called the Steady State theory. In this theory, the Universe does not change very much with time.Remember that because light takes a long time to travel across the Universe, when we look at very distant galaxies, we are also looking back in time.From this we can see that galaxies a long time ago were quite different from those today, showing that the Universe has changed. This fits better with the Big Bang theory than the Steady State theory.


What does spm bang?

i dot now


Where is the big red dot on Jupiter?

The big red dot is a storm.


If there is nothing beyond the universe then how can it be growing?

I have just recently been pondering this question. Something I must add is that the science community currently sees the universe as infinite. If that is true, then there is no way that it is expanding because something including all numbers can't get bigger. That is because it already includes the numbers that are bigger. That is why the big bang theory doesn't fit. Also, the big bang theory says that we started out(everything in the world) the size of a dot on a piece of paper. With the infinity thing that would mean we still are the size of a pin comparing us to the implied infinite proportions. I think things might just be moving in space not space expanding.


Why believe in the big bang?

The Big Bang Theory is science and thus it is inappropriate to 'believe in' it. It is not religion, it is science. Thus we must know about it. It is very likely to be correct. There is great evidence such as the hissing of Arno Penzias' and Robert Wilson's telescope, the Cosmic Background Microwave Radiation, the darkness of the night sky, the recession (and thus red-shift) of galaxies, the existence of General Relativity..... A very elegant theory has been produced as to the history of the Universe. The Universe is expanding (we know this from the red-shift of galaxies). Thus, in the past, the Universe was smaller. Thus at the beginning of time (t = 0), the Universe would have been the smallest it could ever possibly be. The work on General Relativity and the discovery of black holes made us realise that singularities were possible. The Big Bang was a singularity! In order to expand at the rate it is doing today, the initial singularity had to expand with immense speed and power, from the tiniest dot, out in all directions possible. Such an expansion of space-time out of nothing could be described as nothing but explosive! There are numerous works on the Big Bang. Marcus Chown explains why the night sky is evidence for the Big Bang. The static on a television is evidence too. Once again I remind everyone that the Big Bang, whether accepted or not, is not something to be believed in, it is to be evaluated and wondered whether it could be known!!!!!!!!!!. It is not religion it is science.


What is bing and bong?

The big bang theory was created Georges Lemaître and further elaborated on by Stephen Hawking(the guy in the wheelchair who wrote "A Brief History Of Time") as a response to the question of how life came into being. Admitedley, both were led to the theory because the idea of an actual creator was unthinkable. The idea of a big bang has different actual theories incorporated into what is generaly called "the big bang theory". This is because scientists who truly(scientifically) break down the actual theory piece by piece find too many discrepencies and unscientific conclusions. One scientist will find that the theory states that matter was spinning at an enormous rate of speed and then exploded, and that is why all the bodies in space are spinning. The problem with this is very obvious to anyone who understands a very simple law of physics called the conservation of angular momentum(google: conservation of angular momentum) which simply states that if one mass is rotating in a certain direction, anything that is thrown off of it will also rotate in the same direction. The very obvious reality is that the planets, moons, solar systems, and even galaxies are NOT all rotating in the same direction. So here is where the theory gets changed. A new theory has to be developed to support this misnomer. This is how science is supposed to work. Unfortunately, the school textbooks still teach that our origin came from a tiny dot spinning at an incredible rate of speed. If you really delve into this theory, you will find more examples like this-all ignored and taught as fact for the simple reason that the idea of an actual creator or designer is "unthinkable". The big bang theory is not science. It is a religious statement of origins. Pure conjecture. The only thing holding it up is popular opinion being supported by more popular opinion. There is no proof in any form other than conjecture and yet we are told that the theory is in all reality A FACT. We are all free to believe whatever we want to believe about origins, but why is my government using my money to teach lies to my children?


What is the dot on juipter?

The dot on Juipter, is known as the big red spot. This is a big storm, when i mean big, i mean really really big. And that storm has been there for over 300 years.


What does the mark?

On The Mark can be referred to as "On the dot" or "bang on," etc. It basically means right on time or perfect or in questions correct
