Lester Bangs

The Big Bang is the most widely accepted theory about how our universe first began. This theory was first proposed by Belgian priest Georges Lemaître in the 1920’s. It suggests the universe was once condensed into a space equivalent to less than a grain of sand and expanded to billions of kilometers wide in about a second producing incredible amounts of heat. Everything you see is from that rapid expansion. That’s difficult to imagine, however, 3 major pieces of evidence support this; Hubble’s…

the 1920’s that a man named Edwin Hubble provided the first piece of evidence that explained that the universe that we live in was expanding. (The Expanding Universe: From Slowdown to Speed Up, Scientific American). This theory is known as the “Big Bang.” (How Do Scientists Know the Universe is Expanding?, Live Science). Hubble discovered that there was a relationship between the red shift, also known as the cosmological shift in the spectral lines from the galaxy and the distance to an remote…

Have you ever thought that something in the ground would be inside of you at some point in time? Or what's inside of you right now was at some point in time was in a cow? The process of recycling atoms makes this possible. Everything is made up of a star that exploded in space a billion years ago. The Law of Conservation of Mass, discovered by Antoine Lavoisier in 1785, states that matter can not be created or destroyed makes the process of recycling atoms true/possible. When a person exhales…

creation of the universe, Mr.Davis along with my Principal would be reading our papers to see our writing abilities at the beginning of the year, and then we would write the same paper at the end of the year to compare them. We had three options--the Big Bang Theory, The Oscillating Universe Theory, or The Accelerating Universe Theory...None of which, I believe in. I sat in my chair, staring at the blank sheet of paper, not knowing what to write. How am I supposed to write about something I…

HUBBLE REASEARCH Astronomer Edwin Hubble reversed the field of astrophysics his research helped prove the universe is expanding, and he created a classification system for galaxies that had been used for several decades.Mr. Hubble displayed a classification system that had been used for years. Edwin Hubble was born November 20th, 1889 in Missouri. He died on September 28th, 1953. He played a crucial role in establishing the field of extragalactic. He is known today as being one of the greatest…

Did you know the largest Canadian flag ever made according to Flying Colours International was recently unveiled at a football game in Hamilton. Game was between Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Toronto Argonauts. The flag was 38 metres by 76 metres, and required at least 80 pairs of hands to carry it on to the field. This flag will never fly, it's too big, but it will be brought on to the turf at Ivor Wynne Stadium, the Tiger cat's home base, for the start of every home game. A flag that size costs…

countries for hundreds of years. Canada has had multiple flag changes since Confederation from the Union Jack to the Red Ensign. However, a new flag was announced and has been Canada’s flag ever since. Creator of the peacekeepers and future Prime Minister Lester Pearson had successfully convinced Canadians that Canada was in need of a brand new flag. That flag has changed Canada’s identity as an independent nation by removing British influences and uniting all Canadians. First of all, numerous…

many different possibilities on the outcome of the universe, but it just so happen to fit. Many things could have been extremely different such as: law of physics, different arrangement of planet and/or stars, may have begun with bigger or smaller big bang, and many of the planets in our universe could not have allowed for human habitation. Or…

However, cosmic consciousness is not a priority on Earth, and very few are trying to achieve it. According to astrophysics, all the matter existing in the universe today came from a single infinitesimally dense point that expanded after the Big Bang explosion. Although the atoms that make up all matter, including life, are continually being flung further apart in an ever-expanding universe, they were a…

universe and how it began. These are the steady state and The Big Bang theory. Both theories have an explanation on how our Universe is, how it began and how it works. Both theories have stuff in common but also have many differences that could completely change the way we look at the Universe. The Big Bang Theory has much more evidence supporting it, while the Steady State Theory has been proven wrong. Big Bang Theory The Big Bang Theory first started from Hubble’s discovery of the Universe’s…
