The Big Bang Theory vs. Steady State Theory: Explaining the Evolution and Expansion of the Universe

The video explores two theories explaining the universe's expansion: the Big Bang and Steady State theories. It discusses the red-shift of light as evidence of expansion, with the Big Bang Theory suggesting a hot, dense origin 13.8 billion years ago, supported by cosmic microwave background radiation. The Steady State Theory posits continuous matter creation to maintain density. The Big Bang Theory is more widely accepted due to additional supporting evidence.

How does the Steady State theory differ from the Big Bang Theory?

What role does cosmic microwave background radiation play in supporting the Big Bang Theory?

Based on the evidence presented, which theory is more widely accepted and why?
