Apart from what we don't know?

The one thing we don't know, is when a supernova is going to happen. It may be tomorrow, or the year after or next century.

A bit like asking when is the next earthquake.

Know ??? Nothing. We do know that the universe was smaller (and hotter) in the past, and quite tiny and unformed some 13.7 billion years ago (the microwave background signal) , but prior to that its only guesswork.

We really know nothing about the Big Bang. It is a theory to explain the origin of the universe. However, there was obviously no one there at the start to observe and take notes. If you mean the TV show by the same name, that is a different question.

For example:
* How long the inflationary epoch lasted (we do know a minimum time, i.e., at the least it must have lasted so-and-so long)* The details about what caused inflation

* What happened at the very first instants, when distances and energies were at the "Planck scale"

* What caused the Big Bang in the first place

* Whether the Big Bang happened only once, or whether there are lots of other universes

Why was the Big Bang neither big nor did it bang?

According to the believes of physics and the big bang, we know that the big bang was both big and a bang. Since we are still receiving radiation from the big bang, So considering that factor I would say that it was big and a bang. What do you believe?


What were the affects after the big bang?

Everything that ever happened - or at least, everything we know of - happened after the Big Bang, and was, in a way, affected by the Big Bang.


What was inside the space before big bang?

The concept of "before" the Big Bang is not well-defined as time as we know it began with the Big Bang itself. It is thought that the entire universe was in a hot, dense state at the moment of the Big Bang, with all matter and energy concentrated in a singularity.


How do they know how small the universe was before the big bang?

Scientists use mathematical models, such as the theory of general relativity, to extrapolate back in time and estimate the size of the universe before the Big Bang. By observing the current expansion rate of the universe and running these models backward, they can infer that the universe was incredibly small, dense, and hot before the event of the Big Bang.


What happened first big bang or supernova?

The Big Bang happened first. It is the beginning of the Universe as we know it - we don't know what happened before that.During the Big Bang, hydrogen and helium were formed; other elements were created later, through nuclear fusion - and some of those were ejected in supernova explosions.

Was the big bang a cause or a consequence?

The Big Bang is the cause of everything we know - the Universe around us. If the Big Bang itself was caused by something else, we don't know about it.

What is the natural big bang theory?

I know of no such reference for a "natural" Big Bang Theory. Must be just another way of referring to the Big Bang Theory with a differing focus (i.e. kind of like the Hot Big Bang Theory).


Why is the big bang theory a mystery?

The Big Bang theory isn't a mystery: the scientists working on it know exactly what they mean by what they say.


Event that marks the beginning of the universe?

The event that marks the beginning of the universe is the Big Bang. This was a cosmic event that occurred about 13.8 billion years ago, creating the universe as we know it today. The Big Bang theory is widely accepted by scientists as the most plausible explanation for the origin of the universe.

When was Big Bang - Big Bang album - created?

Big Bang - Big Bang album - was created on 2009-08-19.


What started the universe God or the Big Bang?

God! Or maybe the Big Bang! Or how about God created the universe through the Big Bang?As it stands scientifically, it seems as if the Big Bang theory best explains the creation of the universe. Although it is not perfect, and there are some observations the theory does not explain, the Big Bang theory simply explains so much so well that it will take a lot of persuading for scientists to ditch it.However the Big Bang does not eliminate God. We know the Universe began with the Big Bang but we don't know what caused it. Therefore its reasonable to believe that God caused the Universe to come into existence through the Big Bang.A fact that many people don't know: The Big Bang Theory was first proposed by a Catholic priest named Georges Lemaitre.


Where does everything derive from?

In our Universe, ultimately everything started with the Big Bang. We don't know what came before that... or if there even was a "before".
