Was there acutally a bang to be heard in the big bang?

Answer 1

No because then it wouldn't have been a bang.

The above information is actually incorrect, however is slightly correct in the respect that tecqnically a bang is a loud noise, the big bang should actually be called the big explosian, back to the main topic, the big "bang"would have been silent as space is a large vaccum and does not carry the waves needed to carry sound

as an example we learnt in school last year that in space if two astronaughts microphones broke they would have to phsically touch helmets to communicate as the vaccum of space would not carry the waves between particle (like on earth)

Answer 2

Yes, the echoes of the big bang are heard (or used to be) in the hiss and static in the background of long distance telephone calls.

The primary evidence for the big bang is the presence of a faint background radiation, in microwave frequencies, which comes equally from every direction. The hiss was originally thought to be an artifact - an unintentionally generated electronic noise - in the microwave transmitters that AT&T used to carry long-distance telephone signals. After identifying and eliminating every electronic noise possible, in 1964 Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson concluded that the noise was coming from space - and equally from every possible direction.

Robert H. Dicke, Jim Peebles, and David Wilkinson, astrophysicists at Princeton University and MIT, meanwhile, had calculated that the "big bang" would have created background echoes of microwaves from the birth of the universe - exactly the sort of background noise that Penzias and Wilson had discovered.

In 1978, Penzias and Wilson shared the Nobel Prize for Physics for their discovery.

Answer 3

The Big Bang theory does not suggest that there was an actual "bang" sound, as it was an explosion of space itself. It was a rapid expansion of the universe from a hot, dense state, rather than an explosion within existing space that would produce sound waves.

Answer 4

No, you would never be able to hear the Big Bang if you was present as it happened because: there is no air, sound requires air to travel through in a wave.

Answer 5

No.
