The big bang concept is the theory that most successfully explains many

observations, including the redshift in the spectra of distant objects, the

cosmic microwave background and its non-uniformities, and the observed

rates of galaxy formation in the past.

Is the big bang a theory or a hypothesis?

The Big Bang is a theory in cosmology that explains the origin and evolution of the universe, supported by a significant amount of observational evidence. It is not a hypothesis, as a hypothesis is an initial explanation to be tested and either supported or rejected based on evidence.


If the Doppler shift indicated that the shift was to blue-violet on the spectrum would the Big Bang theory?

If the Doppler shift indicated a blue-violet shift in the spectrum of distant galaxies, it would suggest that those galaxies are moving toward us rather than away, contradicting the current understanding of the expanding universe as described by the Big Bang theory. The Big Bang theory is supported by the observation of redshift in the light from distant galaxies, indicating they are receding due to the expansion of the universe. A blue shift would imply a contraction or a different cosmic scenario, prompting a reevaluation of fundamental cosmological principles. Thus, it would challenge the prevailing model of cosmic expansion.


The big bang theory of the formation and expansion of the universe is supported by?

Evidence. See related question.


Which best describes the beginning of big bang theory?

The Big Bang Theory is a scientific theory that suggests the universe began as a singularity around 13.8 billion years ago. It proposes that the universe expanded rapidly from a hot, dense state, cooling over time to form stars, galaxies, and eventually planets. This theory is supported by various observations and evidence in the fields of cosmology and astrophysics.


Which theory is supported by the evidence of cosmic microwave backround radiation?

The evidence of cosmic microwave background radiation supports the Big Bang theory.

What model of universe creation is supported by the red shift?

All modern models based on science that are worth their salt would be. The only major theory I know about the origin of the universe is the Big Bang Theory, which is supported by Red Shift observations. Galaxies we can observe are all moving away (we know this due to Red Shift) from a central point, believed to be the epicenter of the Big Bang.


Is the big bang theory supported by the blue violet shift?

Outside of our Local Group, no galaxy gives off light that exhibits a blue-shift. You most likely meant to say "red shift."


What model supported by red shift?

The Big Bang Model!


Is it true that the big bang theory supported by Doppler shift to red?

You might say that. But it's probably closer to the truth to say that it worked in exactly the opposite way . . . The Big Bang theory is an attempt to explain the shift toward red in the spectra of all distant galaxies, along with many additional observational facts in Astronomy, Physics, and Cosmology.


What evidence was used to develop the big bang theory?

The red shift and the cosmic microwave background radiation was the evidence used to develop the big bang theory.

What does the big bang theory involve?

Red shift caused by the galaxies moving apart.


Which best describe the beginning big bang theory?

massive energy created matterTo get to the theory ... the red shift (and Hubble).If you're referring to how the big bang began, science has no answer.


What shift did hubble see that supported the big bang theory?

Redshift; the generally accepted explanation for the redshift of distant galaxies is that it is cosmological redshift, caused by the expansion of the Universe. This is somewhat related to the idea of the Doppler effect.
