Default The Cooling of the Universe

Tests of Big Bang Cosmology

The Big Bang Model is supported by a number of important
observations, each of which are described in more detail
on separate pages:

1. The expansion of the universe
http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_tests_exp.html


Edwin Hubble's 1929 observation that galaxies were generally
receding from us provided the first clue that the Big Bang
theory might be right.

2. The abundance of the light elements H, He, Li
http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_tests_ele.html


The Big Bang theory predicts that these light elements should
have been fused from protons and neutrons in the first few
minutes after the Big Bang.

3. The cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation
http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_tests_cmb.html


The early universe should have been very hot. The cosmic
microwave background radiation is the remnant heat leftover
from the Big Bang.

These three measurable signatures strongly support the notion
that the universe evolved from a dense, nearly featureless
hot gas, just as the Big Bang model predicts.
