Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Big Bang theory states that the Universe began with a massive explosion and has been expanding ever since. This is supported by observations of the redshift of light from distant galaxies, indicating that they are moving away from us at increasing speeds. There is no evidence or theory to suggest that the Universe is contracting or static. While there are some theories about periodic contraction and expansion (such as the cyclic model), they are not widely accepted and do not represent the mainstream view of the Big Bang theory.
