### "Most Common Misconception on the Big Bang Theory"

During our younger years, we learned that the widespread concept explaining the scientific formation of the universe; the Big Bang Theory involved a massive explosion which resulted into the creation of planets, stars and everything in the universe. We learned that prior to the massive explosion; all the matters, all the energy and everything that is in the known universe today were all compressed and incorporated in a hot dense single thing called singularity. Then for some reasons unknown comes explosion, producing the known universe today. The misleading term “big bang” is one of the reasons for this common misconception which eventually resulted to this popular misunderstanding that the idea involves a giant explosion. The incorporation of all the matters and everything that is in the known universe today is precisely the concept of the Big Bang Theory. During this state, all the scientific notions that were acknowledged today have no meaning, until it began to inflate and started to cool down. However, there was no subsequent explosion involved but rather a continuing expansion.

**What is the Big Bang Theory?** According to www.livescience.com, > The Big Bang is science's best explanation for how the universe began. According to the theory, the universe started out much hotter and much denser than it is today, and expanded and cooled over time. https://i.imgur.com/KVRUhte.png Based on the description above, the concept of the Big Bang Theory explains the beginning and the creation of what is known today as the universe. Also, it is specified above that there was clearly no explosion that took place but rather an expansion which caused the formation of galaxies, planets, stars and everything within.

The expansion and the declining temperature continued until it sprung meaning to early forces and energies such as gravity which holds the galaxies together. As the phenomenon continually progress, more and more forces and energies were formed and split with each other giving meaning to other forces and energies known today. Most scientists suggest that space itself is expanding in all directions and that explosion is an inaccurate term to explain the concept. Physicist Paul Steinhardt, director of the Princeton Center for Theoretical Science at Princeton University in Princeton, N.J. stated that > If it were an explosion it would have a center. We actually observe that everything is moving away from everything else. Although, Andreas Albrecht, a theoretical physicist at the University of California, Davis, states that, > Anything that starts out at 10 to the 40th degrees, and is doubling in size every tiny, tiny fraction of a second – I think you'd want to call that an explosion Albrecht clarifies that this “explosion” term is much different to the perception of an exploding bomb. Therefore, it is technically and scientifically incorrect to say that the universe started with a giant explosion. *Take note that the images shown are not actual photos of the big bang.* ### I HOPE THAT YOU LEARNED SOMETHING images taken from: [[1]](https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn25293-space-time-ripples-hint-at-physics-beyond-the-big-bang/),[[2]](https://www.livescience.com/32278-was-the-big-bang-really-an-explosion.html),[[3]](https://www.space.com/25126-big-bang-theory.html).
