== == Much of the material below is really opinion and/or discussion. See the related question 'Is scientific knowledge proven knowledge?' for some basic ideas around the concept of 'proven' knowledge. To me the theory is wrong, because the universe wasn't created by being blown up! If so what was every thing inside of??
== == The big bang theory is of course a theory; it is the opinion of several scientists who are interpreting a certain set of astronomical data. == == There is a great deal of supporting evidence. The direction is irresistably towards the acceptance of the Big Bang theory.
The Big Bang is finding more scientists in disagreement because the evidence is turning against it. Like many old paradigms, it still has its zealous adherents. But more scientists (not only creation scientists but secular cosmologists as well) are seeing data which does not fit it well. So, the direction in science is not towards the Big Bang but away from it - or at least, there is an acknowledgment that it doesn't fit some of the latest data. Of course the failure of the Big Bang to explain all the data will not lead to a rush toward creationism or intelligent design. The Big Bang theory itself will be drastically revised or it will be abandoned in favor of another theory which also fits with the long-age evolutionary paradigm. The strength of theories is not in their being proven correct. The best theories turn mysteries into problems. [Read Montague: Your Brain Is (almost) Perfect]. Problems can be approached, taken apart, reasoned and challenged. There is a way to envision our observations of the universe in such a way that they make sense. If it is not the Big Bang, it will be another theory that comes along some day. Theories come and go; it is the nature of science and it is its strength. Alternately, and without appealing to creationism or intelligent design, there are serious logical and philosophical reasons to doubt that any theory is or can ever be proven. But it is unmistakable that progress is made over time. So the heuristic that we know as science does work in that sense. If I had the need for surgical removal of a tumor I would accept the end-product of modern science, and I would not choose to go back to the Bronze Age to be treated by the elders. ** See the related question on proven knowledge.
big bang: This is the big bang theory
The event that marks the beginning of the universe is the Big Bang. This was a cosmic event that occurred about 13.8 billion years ago, creating the universe as we know it today. The Big Bang theory is widely accepted by scientists as the most plausible explanation for the origin of the universe.
A theory that the universe formed in a huge explosion
The Big Bang did not give us visible light. Light, from the time of the Big Bang has been red shifted so that it is now in the microwave part of the spectrum.However, the Big Bang did give us all the matter that exists, and some of that matter formed stars which, in their nuclear fusion, produce light.
According to the big bang theory the universe began about?
No one knows the exact answer to how the world was created. the big bang THEORY has not been scientifically proven yet.
something that caused the big bang is scientifically unknown
Exactly the same, there was no big bang!! That theory has been proven wrong.
it has been scientifically proven that all sick kents have big dicks :)
scientifically, an atom hit another atom and then they exploded- This is how I am typing now ;)
If it was proven it wouldn't be called a "theory"
No
Sale of product that are not scientifically proven to be effective; fraudulent advertisment or promotion
No foods have been scientifically proven to be aphrodisiacs. Although many have been scientifically proven not to be aphrodisiacs.
it is your thought or opinion on something, it cannot be proven.... like the Big Bang theory
The Big Bang theory is a scientific explanation for the origin of the universe, focused on the expansion from a very high-density state. This scientific theory does not necessarily imply the non-existence of a higher power or God. Many people see the Big Bang as a part of a larger divine plan or view the scientific understanding of the universe as compatible with their religious beliefs.
No. It is not a science.
