theory on many different factors/observations. The most important is the “redshift” of very far away galaxies. Redshift is the doppler reaction that occurs in light. When an object moves away from earth‚ it looks reddish because the movement stretches the wavelength. The reddish color occurs because; red is the lowest wavelength on the visible. The more redshift there is‚ the faster the object is moving away. By measuring the redshift‚ scientists proved that the universe is expanding and can even work

bang theory because they led to the conclusion that the big bang did occur. This big bang evidence helps us understand that the big bang made the universe expand every day. The most important piece of evidence is the Redshift‚ the Redshift is how far away a distant object is. Redshift has shown why these objects move the way they do. Scientist have found this the most evidence for the big

Big Bang Theory Fifteen billion years ago‚ give or take five billion years‚ the entirety of our universe was compressed into the confines of an atomic nucleus. Known as a singularity‚ this is the moment before creation when space and time did not exist. According to the prevailing cosmological models that explain our universe‚ an ineffable explosion‚ trillions of degrees in temperature on any measurement scale‚ that was infinitely dense‚ created not on fundamental subatomic particles and thus

The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model that describes the early development of the Universe.[1] According to the theory‚ the Big Bang occurred approximately 13.798 ± 0.037 billion years ago‚[2][3][4][5][6][7] which is thus considered the age of the universe.[8][9][10][11] After this time‚ the Universe was in an extremely hot and dense state and began expanding rapidly. After the initial expansion‚ the Universe cooled sufficiently to allow energy to be converted into various subatomic

When Science and Religion Collide Throughout the past few centuries‚ science has come to play an important fundamental role in the lives of humans around the world. Major advancements in medical science‚ such as improving technological equipment and insight into diseases that once plagued human civilization have come to greatly improve the lives of many people. Unfortunately science is not always held in the highest ideals; some of the concepts in science come in direct conflict with religion.

Dana Leamaster February 13‚ 2013 Informative Speech: The Big Bang Theory How did the universe begin? How did matter come to exist? We all know that the universe exists‚ however‚ this knowledge alone has not satisfied mankind’s quest for further knowledge and understanding. Much time has been spent looking for some clues. Most of what we know is still only a speculation. The three topics I’d like to discuss are what exactly the Big Bang theory is‚ the first atoms‚ and the age of

Introduction In order to further understand the relationship between temperature‚ radiation‚ and energy output we conducted a black body experiment in order to experimentally confirm the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. A black body is an object which allows all entering radiation‚ without reflection‚ to enter the object‚ absorbs all of the radiation‚ and subsequently releases radiation based on its own constant temperature. Another key factor is this absorption happens at all various wavelengths and

Our Place in the Universe Science is the process of creating ideas and the “what” and “how” of the universe. What is our place in the universe? How did we end up here? What even is the universe? To start off‚ I define the universe as all matter and energy that exists. Our cosmic address in the universe begins at our galaxy in the local group‚ which is an island of stars in space held together by gravity and all orbiting a common center. Besides our galaxy there are about 40 other galaxies in
