Was the Big Bang an explosion that created the universe?
No, the Big Bang was not an explosion in the traditional sense. It was a rapid expansion of space and time that marked the beginning of the universe as we know it.
Is matter still moving away from the explosion of the big bang?
The question is wrong in two ways:The Big Bang is not an explosion. It is an expansion of space.Matter has never been moving away from the Big Bang. The space between stars and galaxies is expanding.
Which theory proposes that all the matter in the universe simply exploded outward after it was compressed into a small space under tremendous pressure?
The big bang theory does not state that "the universe began with a gigantic explosion." The theory suggests that our universe originated from an infinitesimally small point called a singularity. Since all of space was all localized within this point, the rapid expansion of the universe isn't an explosion. An explosion occurs within space, but the expansion of space itself isn't an explosion. Quite simply, there isn't anything outside of space for the universe to explode into. Thus the "big bang" wasn't big, nor did it go bang. Around the time of the big bang (about 13.7 billion years ago), the universe was much hotter and expanding very rapidly (somewhat analogous to an explosion but by no means an actual explosion).
Did the big bang blow up the earth?
No, it didn't. At the moment of the 'big bang', which was really an expansion and not a noisy explosion, there was absolutely nothing except the massless energy that brought the big bang about. The earth didn't exist until billions of years after the big bang.
What is the Big Bang?
A theory that the universe formed in a huge explosion
Is an instant rapid and hot expansion of the universe the same thing as an explosion?
No. An explosion is an expansion of matter from a central point of high density to outer points of lower density. This is NOT what happened during the Big Bang, despite numerous popular presentations to that effect. The Big Bang was NOT an expansion of dense matter from a central point into empty space. It was an expansion of space itself.
What happened at the time of the Big Bang?
The universe began rapidly expanding and cooling. This expansion was NOT an explosion because there is nothing around the universe for it to explode into.For what it is worth the Big Bang never ended, it is still happening.
What did Astronomers theorize that the universe began in an explosion called an?
big bang: This is the big bang theory
Are the Big Bang and a supernova the same?
No. The Big Bang was the origination of the universe; a black hole is the death of a star. Answer The big bang was an explosive expansion of space-time from a singularity, marking the beginning of time and space. Supernovae are exploding giant stars that form (and explode) millions or billions of years after such things as Big Bangs. The Big Bang was not a true explosion, but an enormous expansion. Supernovae are hugely closer akin to explosions.
When was the big bang theory suggested?
Georges Lemaitre proposed the Big bang in 1927.
Which explosion caused the birth of Universe?
Some scientsists belivs that there was an explosion called the 'big bang' (Big Bang theory), that started it all off. If this was the case though, there probably wouldn't have been a bang though in the void of nothingness.
How long was the big bang?
Realistically - it is still going on. The "big bang" was a term coined to ridicule an explanation for the birth of the universe. It was not a "bang" more a rapid expansion. As this expansion is still continuing, the "big bang" has not finished.
