Yes, but not initially as Einstein was a major proponent of the Steady State theory. Einstein is puported to have spent the latter years of his life trying to justify his Steady State Theory with the concepts and supportive evidence for an evolving inflationary universe theory.
The idea of the Big Bang is generally credited to Georges Lemaitre. Use the link below for more information.
Despite all the odds, a priest thought about the idea of a beginning to the universe. The science community; however, didn't listen because he was a priest (until he was able to prove it)!
Einstein initially believe in a steady state view of the universe and later supported cosmologies based on oscillation. He found the Big Bang theory to be philosophically unsatisfying.
No, that was after Darwin.

The Big Bang (possibly a misnomer; there was no sound according to some theorists) is one way to make sense out of the current observation that the galaxies are moving away from one another. Briefly, if the galaxies are moving away from one another, there must have (theoretically) been a time when they were all bunched up together. The theory also describes how various particles and then atoms came into existence, followed up by the creation of heavier and heavier elements in the various generations and explosions of stars the big bang theory was found by george gamow
Jesuit priest George LeMaitre developed the math for the Big Bang (although the name came later) in 1927, long before Stephen Hawking was born.
According to Wikipedia the theory which became know as the "Big Bang Theory" was first seriously proposed in 1931 by Georges Lemaitre. The name "Big Bang Theory" is attributed later (1949) to the astronomer Fred Hoyle. The appropriate search term on Wikipedia is "Big Bang".
The Big Bang is a theory of what happened at the beginning of the universe. Astronomy and physics have shown that the universe did actually have a beginning, but we're not exactly sure of the origins of the Big Bang. There is a fortune and a Nobel Prize waiting for the first person to answer this question to everyones satisfaction. the-pokedex:well this came to me one day but it is correct that the sun was getting to much energy so it blow up then the paticals of water came to the lava making rock and then the little rocks came to the main rock or the biggest making planets PS i am only 9
not do I no of
You can put the title, where it came from/who came up wit it, what initially happened in the big bang theory, misleading conceptions about the it? maybe a little quiz in there? conclusion about what you have learned and what they should of learned?

The Big Bang theory was set up to explain observations - for example, the redshift of distant galaxies, which is usually interpreted to mean that the galaxies move away from us.
It is a theory, therefore it was not discovered. It was thought up by scientists and philosophers.
Ten Tibias was a Renaissance man who descended from a German monarch. He was also the distance cousin of the person who came up with the term Big Bang Theory.
The "big bang" theory is still relatively new. British astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle came up with the term "big bang" as a derogatory term in the 1950's, because Hoyle was a life-long believer in the "steady state" theory of the universe.
yes. the show has actually been picked up for a third and fourth season
Alexander Friedmann, a Russian mathematician, theorized mathematical models of the universe in 1922, following Einstein's theories. Friedmann's work formed the basis of what we now refer to as the "Big Bang" theory.
No. Georges LeMaitre was one of the first people to come up with the notion of a Big Bang. Charles Darwin was a biologist, not a physicist or astronomer.
In short, the Big Bang theory came about when astronomers noticed that the Universe is expanding (and later discovered that it is speeding up). Now, if you just turn the clock back 13.7 billion years, one sees the universe shrinking until it becomes smaller than the size of an atom. Scientists have yet to prove what caused the big bang, but there are theories suggesting that in certain conditions, like the microscopic universe 13.7B years ago, gravity has a repulsive force. It is this force that scientists believe which caused the Big Bang.
