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.]
The history of the Big Bang theory began with the Big Bang's development from observations and theoretical considerations. Much of the theoretical work in cosmology now involves extensions and refinements to the basic Big Bang model.
The concept of the Big Bang was introduced in the 1920s, with significant contributions from Belgian priest and physicist Georges Lemaître, who proposed it in 1927. The term "Big Bang" itself was coined later, in 1949, by British scientist Fred Hoyle during a BBC radio broadcast, although he was actually advocating for a competing theory. The Big Bang theory has since become the leading explanation for the origin of the universe.
Newton died centuries before Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre first proposed the hypothesis now known as Big Bang Cosmology.And I think, like most geniuses with difficulties in social interaction, Newton would have found the TV show The Big Bang Theory quite amusing.
The Big Bang theory was proposed (happened) in the middle of the 20th Century.The theory, and the work exploring it, suggest that the Big Bang happened about 13.7 billion years ago.
Jesuit priest George LeMaitre first proposed the idea that our Universe is expanding over time. Edwin Hubble provided the first astronomical evidence that LeMaitre was correct.

Georges Lemaître proposed what later became known as the Big Bang theory in 1946.He called it L'Hypothèse de l'atome primitif" (Hypothesis of the primeval atom).
