Big Bang Universe Theory

Today Google dedicated its famous Doodle to celebrate the birth anniversary of Belgian astronomer, Georges Lemaitre. It would have been the 124th birthday of the famed astronomer who was best known for formulating the modern Big Bang Theory in 1927. Lemaitre described the beginning of the universe as a 'burst of fireworks', and believed that the bi...

Hawking has propounded his theory on what happened before the universe came into existence.

Roughly 466 million years ago, something huge exploded in space and sent shrapnel raining down on Earth. It was the biggest such cataclysm to happen in our celestial neighborhood in some 3 billion years.

Researchers using a new cosmological model claim the Big Bang theory may be incorrect, adding that the universe may be infinitely old.

The Big Bang never happened and our universe may have no beginning and no end, suggests a new theory by physicists, including one of Indian-origin.

Researchers have launched a new experiment on a balloon in Antarctica, that uses a set of six telescopes, to investigate the Big Bang.

Pope Francis on Monday said the "Big Bang" theory as a model for the origin of the Universe "does not rule out the intervention of a divine Creator, but rather demands it" and that "the origin of the world is not a product of chaos, but is derived directly from the supreme power that created love."

Black holes - the most dense objects in the universe that do not even let light escape - do not exist, a physics professor in the US has claimed.

American astrophysicists who announced just months ago what they deemed a breakthrough in confirming how the universe was born now admit they may have got it wrong.

In a major discovery for understanding the origins of the universe, US scientists said Monday they have detected echoes of the Big Bang 14 billion years ago.

The moments just after the Big Bang happened more like the theory predicts, an international team of scientists using the most powerful telescope on Earth has discovered.

Closer scrutiny of radiation left over from the creation of the universe shows the Big Bang took place about 13.8 billion years ago, 100 million years earlier than previous estimates, scientists said on Thursday.
