The Oscillating Universe Theory is a cosmological model that combines both the Big Bang and the Big Crunch as part of a cyclical event. That is, if this theory holds true, then the Universe in which we live in exists between a Big Bang and a Big Crunch.
In other words, our universe can be the first of a possible series of universes or it can be the nth universe in the series.

∙ 13y agoThis refers to the idea that after a period of expansion, the Universe will eventually contract again (due to attractive gravitational forces), return to a tiny point, and explode again in another Big Bang. This no longer seems likely to happen, since it has been found that the expansion of the Universe is actuall accelerating, not slowing down.

What does the nebular hypothises explain?
the formation of the universe
What is the word for a kind of star formation in the universe?
constilation
What is the steady state Universe model?
A model describing the Universe as static and not changing. According to this model the Universe always existed and always will, and it was in the past the same way we see it today.
What is cosmological theory?
A theory of the origin and formation of the universe (the cosmos).
The geocentric model of the universe stated that?
Earth was the center of the universe
What model of the origin of the universe believes that the universe expands and contracts in a regular pattern?
it is the oscillating model
What is the name of theory that the big bang will repeat?
The "Cyclic Model," AKA the "Oscillating Universe Model."
What is the oscillating theory?
the oscillating theory of the universe suggests that the creation of this universe followed the death of the last universe. bethany punter wrote this - scientific genius :) hey scientific genius :) (bethany punter)
What would you say if you believed in oscillating universe theory?
"I believe in the oscillating universe theory."
What is the Oscialla universe theory?
I assume you mean the oscillating Universe. That refers to the idea that the expansion of the Universe will eventually revert, the Universe will contract again, all the matter will get together into an extremely small space, but from there it would expand again (and again, and again...). In practice, this still won't make our Universe last forever, due to the Second Law of Thermodynamics (entropy can still only increase!). In any case, the current observational evidence is that the Universe is expanding faster and faster - not slowing down - so the oscillating (cyclic) model is not very likely.
Are Quasar formations associated with?
Quasar formation is associated with the big bang. The big bang is the model of how the universe was formed.
What is Oscillation theory?
the oscillating theory of the universe suggests that the creation of this universe followed the death of the last universe. bethany punter wrote this - scientific genius :) hey scientific genius :) (bethany punter)
When was the formation of the universe?
The Universe has an age estimated to be about 13.8 billion years.
What does the nebular hypothises explain?
the formation of the universe
What did the Copernicus universe suggest?
Copernicus suggested a heliocentric model of the universe. Meaning, the earth was the centre of the universe and other planets had to orbit around the earth. This model of the universe was against Ptolemy's model of a geocentric model; a stationary Earth at the centre of the universe.
What is the word for a kind of star formation in the universe?
constilation
What is the scientific hypothesis for the formation of the universe?
the big bang
