The Expanding Universe Objective: To interpret a model demonstrating the theories of our expanding universe. Hypothesis: I believe the two marked points on the balloon will be farther apart each time the balloon is blown up. Materials: * 1 un-inflated balloon (when inflated‚ the balloon should have a round shape and be approximately the size of a soccer ball) * Markers * About 30 cm (12 inches) of string or yarn * Ruler or tape measure Procedures: 1. Place an un-inflated

However in the text “the Big Bang theory” the humour is generated through the contrast between the distinctive voices of Sheldon Cooper and the distinctive

much I like to indulge in science and religion: I was having a “civil argument” with other scientific minds at a planetarium about science and faith/religion. The conversation started as epically as many of them do with the battle between “The big bang theory” versus “Creation story”‚ God. As the conversation progressed an apple fell from the tree of knowledge and hit me on my head like Isaac Newton. This was my sublime; science and religion and play in the same sand box. There is no reason to disagree

It is hard not to enjoy this author. Richard Feynman is an extremely curious character with a lot of time on his hands. He obviously loved to explore the science world as an art. He won the Nobel Prize in 1965 for physics and was one of the greatest physicists of all time. Within the few chapters and pages that I have read‚ Richard Feynman was definitely a man with a huge sense of adventure and a very high intelligence. In the first chapter that I read (Testing Bloodhounds)‚ I thought that

Assignment 7 Chapter 24: 1. When was the first quasar discovered? The first quasar was discovered in the 1950’s. 2. What is the theory of the existence of quasars? In 1965‚ Jim Gunn and Bruce Peterson of Caltech predicted that distant quasars should show evidence of the end of the cosmic dark ages. But until recently‚ no one had ever seen an object distant enough to check their prediction 3. Where can we find quasars and what are the main characteristics? Quasars have little or

experimental procedures with the Big Bang theory. How does your balloon represent the Big Bang theory? What are the shortcomings of the experimental design? The balloon expands‚ making the universe bigger. This is like the big bang theory in the way that the universe expands to create what it is today. One of the shortcomings is that the balloon can only get so big‚ while the universe has no limits. 3. How does the model you created help to show that the Steady State theory is inaccurate? The model does

power’ and God is a big one. There is no reason to believe that God was the one to begin this chain. The philosopher‚ Immanuel Kant‚ said that it is arguable that there is a first cause. But‚ we cannot know‚ what that first cause is. Kant said this is because if God is outside of this causal chain‚ or transcendent‚ we cannot know God or his qualities. This means we cannot know if he was the first cause. This is further backed up by the ‘Big Bang’ theory. The Big Bang theory is the idea that at
