The theologian and physician Georges Lemaître is believed to be the founder of the big bang theory. He first described the conditions within the first seconds of our universe 1931,with the term "primordial atom".

The Big Bang theory explains only that such a rapid expansion caused the young universe to cool and resulted in its present continuously expanding state.

No common agreement exists as to the conditions leading up to the Big Bang, for it is believed that conditions were too different for our knowledge to be applicable.

It was the British mathematician Sir Fred Hoyle who coined the phrase "Big bang" in a radio broadcast in 1949. [He favoured an alternate hypothesis, subsequently abandoned.]
