10 Things You Really Should Know About The Big Bang
Unless you grew up in the back woods with no access to books, TV or social media the chances are that you have heard of ‘The Big Bang’. We are not talking about the TV show (although we might do a list on that another time!), we are talking about the cosmological event that took place that started everything. The chances are that you do know that the phrase refers to the moment that our universe and everything in it came into being. Other than that the chances are that
you don’t know all that much about it. Just about every book, article or TV program discussing ‘The Big Bang’ starts out clear and easy to understand but then, within minutes, descends into complex discussions on astrophysics. Before you know it the topic is completely beyond all but a PhD working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.It is easy to dismiss complex phenomenon, particularly when they are esoteric in nature and seem irrelevant to our daily lives. But ‘The Big Bang’ is important. Every particle of matter that ever was came into being at that time, in a sense we were born all those billions of years ago. As the founding moment of our very existence it is important that we all understand the basic information about ‘The Big Bang’ and why it is important in our daily lives. With that in mind we have taken the time to cut through the complex physics and distil down to basic principles the 10 most important things you need to know about ‘The Big Bang’.
