The Big Bang For decades the Big Bang theory has been the leading theory on the beginning of our universe. Alternate theories come and go‚ but mainly go. As new data and research are continually eliminating alternatives to the standard model of cosmology‚ the Big Bang just keeps getting stronger. Before discussing the alternate theories to the Big Bang theory‚ the basics of the early universe should first be understood. The main points opposing the theory are based around a few aspects that will
