Personal background starts off small‚ it changes and grows over time into something big‚ it grows into an identity. Walking down the hallway at school‚ seeing someone standing alone‚ my first instinct is to make conversation‚ compliment‚ or even just smile at him or her.

The second piece of evidence that they had about the big bang was The cosmic microwave background radiation. These two pieces of evidence support the big bang theory because they led to the conclusion that the big bang did occur. This big bang evidence helps us understand that the big bang made the universe expand every day. The most important

Big Bang Theory Fifteen billion years ago‚ give or take five billion years‚ the entirety of our universe was compressed into the confines of an atomic nucleus. Known as a singularity‚ this is the moment before creation when space and time did not exist. According to the prevailing cosmological models that explain our universe‚ an ineffable explosion‚ trillions of degrees in temperature on any measurement scale‚ that was infinitely dense‚ created not on fundamental subatomic particles and thus
