The Big-Bang Model

David states that the widely accepted cause of the universe, which consists of a very large explosion whose aftermath was the universe, “doesn’t really account for that original… something that exploded.” (Woody 14). This quotes demonstrates how even though it explains the universe’s beginning, the big bang theory does not explain how the things that caused it, which is the quantum vacuum and a singularity in it, came to be. David thus

Hubble’s revolutionary work includes finding a constant relationship between galaxies’ distance and redshift. This helped prove that the universe is expanding. He also created a classification system that was created for galaxies. The system he created is called the Hubble Sequence, which many researchers have used for the past decades.

After conducting an hour-long observation and data collection of The Big Bang Theory, I found three specific patterns. These were patterns of traditional gender roles, heterosexual privilege, and gender performance. The first pattern is the traditional breadwinner and housewife roles that are portrayed throughout the episodes. In the show women are seen occupying the household while the men occupy the workplace. These traditional roles reinforce gendered behaviors and interactions amongst the male and female character that reflect modern day society.

The currently accepted model of the Big Bang is "that the the universe is not static but is expanding and that the expansion began in an incredibly hot, dense Big Bang approximately 13.72 billion years ago" (Krause, 2012, p. 25). This hot, dense bit of matter was only a few millimeters across and contained all of the matter and energy that makes up our universe and as it expanded, it cooled and over the billions of years of existence the universe settled into its current state.

Throughout Collins’s book he goes through many topics that have been a barrier between science and religion for a long time. I agree with many of Collins’s viewpoints when stuck in-between science and religion. This includes his view on the origins of the universe.

There have been many theories concerning what the universe looks like, how it became this way, and where it is going. The most popular theory that people hold today is that the universe began when all the matter ever present in the universe was contained in a tiny speck and that spec exploded. This is known as the Big Bang. This theory has developed a great deal since it was first conceptualized and continues to evolve today. Many different scientists have had a hand in this.

The Big Bang Theory is the name given to mark the event of the birth of the universe and is the scientific theory about what happen in the earliest moments of the universe, and how the universe was an extremely hot and dense of subatomic particles and radiation. The big bang let insights about how old the universe is and the universe is 14 billion years old and it has changed throughout its time.

Edwin created Hubble’s Law, which supported the Big Bang Theory. Hubble also figured out that the Milky Way is not the only celestial body in the universe. “Hubble added integral knowledge to the field of astronomy, including the discovery of other galaxies and proof that the universe is constantly expanding” (Contemporary Heroes and Heroines, 2000). Hubble innovated in his field by changing the perspective of the Universe, and impacted society by making the world so much bigger. Hubble’s discoveries inspired multiple people to join the field of astronomy, and to remain open to new situations. Whenever somebody is able to do this well, they are bound to do great

    “We find them smaller and fainter, in constantly increasing numbers, and we know that we are reaching into space, farther and farther, until, with the faintest nebulae that can be detected with the greatest telescopes, we arrive at the frontier of the known universe.”- Edwin Hubble. Edwin Hubble was a man known for his immaculate discoveries leading to better understanding the universe. The telescope built in honor of him did not fail to carry on his legacy. This essay will take you through Hubble’s life story, the Hubble space telescope’s description, the telescope's discoveries, and the implications of the telescope to our understanding of the universe.

Edwin Hubble discovering galaxies outside of our own Milky Way; He showed that these separate galaxies were moving away from each other by observing there redshifts. His observations led him to the discovery that the farther away a galaxy was from the Milky Way, the faster it was moving away from us. This is known as Hubble’s

The Universe was this tiny super atom, and between 12 and 20 million years ago it exploded, creating as we know it today, the Big bang. It sent matter in every which way, and that was just the beginning of the Universe. As it was forming, nearly all of the earth was made up of this huge cloud of hydrogen. Some of the hydrogen mixed with helium and developed into stars.

The beginning of time and the universe began with the Big Bang. This was an explosion that started the expansion of the universe. In the most basic sense, the standard model is simply the idea that every bit of the matter and energy in the universe was once compressed to an unimaginable density. In the big bang, the material exploded outward into the formation of matter that we see today. Shortly after this event everything in the universe was very dense and very hot. It was only until 500,000

As stated on nasa.gov, “Hubble has made more than 1.2 million observations since it’s missions began in 1990.” Hubble has also expanded astronomers knowledge about the universe and space as a whole. The most famous observation made by this telescope was that of galaxies beyond our own, Milky Way, and discovering that the universe is much larger than further predicted. Before this telescope, ground based telescopes could only see into our galaxy and could not reach any further. Therefore, it was thought that the Milky Way was the only galaxy included in space and the universe. Due to the fact, Hubble’s telescope, expands and allows for the study across a wider light spectrum, astronomers can see beyond further predicted. Another famous observation, studied by astronomers was that of the study of uncharted territories of the cosmos. As proposed on hubblesite.org, “It became increasingly clear to astronomers that Earth’s atmosphere distorted starlight, which made it difficult to obtain razor-sharp views of celestial objects. The idea of placing a telescope in space, above Earth’s turbulent air, had been kicked around for several years. But scientists pondered how to transport a telescope into space.” That was until, Hubble’s creation that displayed imagery of the cosmos. Once again it had accomplished a feat that had troubled ground based telescopes. In

According to the Big Bang Theory the universe appeared as a singularity. Singularities are thought to exist at the core of black holes. These zones of infinite density are called "singularities." Our universe is thought to have begun extremely small, infinitely hot, and infinitely dense. As time

There has been a lot of research done on the influence media can have on society, in particular the degrading images of women that are often seen in media. Since the second wave of the women’s rights movements these images were the object of scrutiny and an easy example of how women were viewed. In modern society where women have made many strides towards equality why are there still instances in popular media were women are negatively depicted? Have women come as far as they think? The popular sitcom The Big Bang Theory negatively depicts the female characters by reverting to a binary view of gender, in which the female characters are lacking, they can be beautiful or smart however they cannot be both.
