“ THEORIES BEHIND THE ORIGIN OF THE

UNIVERSE”

Big bang theory

According to the Big Bang theory, the

expansion of the observable universe began
with the explosion of a single particle at a
definite point in time. Is the leading explanation about how the
universe began,
( Georges Lemaître, (1894-1966), Belgian
cosmologist, Catholic priest, and father of the
Big Bang theory.)

In this theory, energy and matter divided and At its simplest, it talks about the universe as

B. Despite the explanations and view provided above, which

theory do you find appealing and why?

Answer:

Despite the explanations above and view provided

above I find the bigbang theory appealing because it is
the theory who has a simpliest and easy definition and
those limitation given they only think people’s safety if
ever they got confused and think to this theory.

This theory, which is more commonly
