	B of the Bang - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		B Of The Bang is a sculpture designed by Thomas Heatherwick erected in Manchester, England.
		The sculpture takes its name from a Linford Christie quotation in which he said that he started his races not merely at the 'bang' of the starting pistol, but at 'The B of the Bang'.
		B of the Bang stands over 183 feet (56m) tall, more than twice the height of the Angel of the North and only slightly shorter than Nelson's Column.

	Big Bang - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Huge advances in Big Bang cosmology were made in the late 1990s and the early 21st century as a result of major advances in telescope technology in combination with large amounts of satellite data such as that from COBE, the Hubble Space Telescope and WMAP.
		The Big Bang theory predicted the existence of the cosmic microwave background radiation or CMB which is composed of photons emitted during baryogenesis.
		Using the Big Bang model it is possible to calculate the concentration of helium -4, helium-3, deuterium and lithium -7 in the universe as ratios to the amount of ordinary hydrogen, H. All the abundances depend on a single parameter, the ratio of photons to baryons.

		Using the Big Bang model it is possible to calculate the concentration of helium 4, helium 3, deuterium and lithium 7 in the universe.
		When the Big Bang theory was originally proposed, it was rejected by most scientists and enthusiastically embraced by the pope, because it seemed to point to a creation event.
		While most scientists nowadays view the Big Bang theory as the best explanation of the available evidence, and the Catholic Church still accepts it, some conservative Christians (usually Fundamentalists) oppose it because the age of the universe is far higher than the one calculated from a literal reading of the book of Genesis the Bible.

	The Big Bang Theory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		According to the big bang, the universe was created sometime between 10 billion and 20 billion years ago from a cosmic explosion that hurled matter and in all directions.
		In 1927, the Belgian priest Georges Lemaître was the first to propose that the universe began with the explosion of a primeval atom.
		The Big Bang Theory received its strongest confirmation when this radiation was discovered in 1964 by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, who later won the Nobel Prize for this discovery.

	Creation of a Cosmology: Big Bang Theory
		Big bang theory states that in order to have mass condense and form galaxies, there must be inhomogeneties left over from the Big bang that will be able to be detectable.
		Inflation theory predicted such fluctuations and that quantum processes at work during the primordial stages of the big bang (when the universe was the size of a proton) allowed for clouds of matter to condense into galaxies (Sawyer).
		The Big Bang model that attempts to explain the origin and structure of the universe incorporates the talents of many individuals through the course of more than 150 years of study.

	THE BIG BANG
		For our purposes, through an examination of what is known about the Big Bang itself, the age of the universe, and the synthesis of the first atoms, we believe that we can begin to answer several of these key questions.
		The Big Bang actually consisted of an explosion of space within itself unlike an explosion of a bomb were fragments are thrown outward.
		Immediately after the Big Bang, as one might imagine, the universe was tremendously hot as a result of particles of both matter and antimatter rushing apart in all directions.

	Why the Big Bang is Wrong
		The Big Bang theory of the universe is wrong because the cosmological red shift is due to the Compton effect rather than the Doppler effect. See The Endless, Boundless, Stable Universe by Grote Reber and Hubble's Constant in Terms of the Compton Effect by John Kierein.
		These problems include the idea that there are many objects observed that are older than the time from the big bang, which is variously estimated to be from 10 to 15 billion years ago, with the best estimates being 10 billion years.
		Mature galaxies are found near the time of a supposed big bang that have not had enough time to develop.

	Big Bang Cosmology Meets an Astronomical Death
		Science, however, is dedicated to the discovery of the causes of observed phenomena; the Big Bang model thus leads to the rejection of the principle of causality that is fundamental in philosophy as well as in physics.
		Third, Alpher, Bethe, and Gamow in 1948 used the Big bang theory to predict the existence of a low temperature background radiation throughout the universe at 25 K as a relic of the initial Big Bang explosion.
		In 1988, Simon Lilly of the university of Hawaii reported the discovery of a mature galaxy at the enormous redshift of 3.4; that is, the amount of the redshift for any spectral line from the galaxy is 340 per cent of the line's proper wavelength ( Lilly 1988).

	Zoom Astronomy Glossary: B
		The big bang theory states that the universe began as a tiny but powerful explosion of space-time roughly 13.7 billion years ago (plus or minus 1 percent).
		In 1965, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson used a horn antenna (in Crawford Hill, N.J.) and discovered the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation with a temperature of 2.7 Kelvin; this CMB was left-over from the early moments of the universe after the Big Bang (this was predicted by George Gamow and Ralph Alpher, in 1948).
		This is one hypothesized future of the universe, assuming that the universe is closed (having a mass density exceeding the critical mass density).

		Its most famous application, in its first, Keplerian, instantiation, was Hubble's measure of the luminosity of distant variable stars (1924) — which led to the discoveries of cosmic expansion and the Big Bang.
		In the concluding reflection of the pivotal tenth section of the Living Forces, Kant recognized the contingency of the pressure-propagation ratio (1:24.26-8), inferred that other ratios would generate continua with other dimensions (1:24.28-30), and surmised that a science in command of the dimensional range would be the highest geometry achievable (1:24.31-3).
