THE BIG BANG

November 20, 2006 at 9:15 PM · Science

I don’t know how to link yet, but I know a good way to begin this blog. There was an article a month ago in the Wall St. Journal about the Nobel Prize in Physics. Scientists had confirmed the Big Bang Theory by finding background radiation that was from the Big Bang. This wonderful article pointed out that the echo from the Big Bang makes up a lot of the static you hear on the radio. If you had eyes that could pick up the radiation, you could see the radiation every night. I find it beautiful that the beginning of the universe is still all about us.
