The Big Bang Theory : By Allison Schneider 5/4/2010

This entire "big bang theory" was developed to help explain how our universe was started/created. This web site describes the big bang theory as "prior to a moment in time, there was nothing; during and after that moment, there was something". The big bang theory is to describe how we got from nothing to something, a universe. According to this web site, our universe started as a black hole (areas of intense gravitational pressures). The pressure is thought to be so intense, that finite matter was "squished" into infinite density. After this appearance, it apparently inflated, expanded (the big bang), and cooled. It continues to expand and cool to this day. Our universe is thought to "appear out of nowhere, for reasons unknown".

One misconception about the big bang theory is that there was a huge explosion. Today, scientists do not believe that is what happened, but that our universe kept expanding.
