Friedmann universe, model universe developed in 1922 by the Russian meteorologist and
mathematician Aleksandr Friedmann (1888–1925). He believed that Albert Einstein’s general
theory of relativity required a theory of the universe in motion, as opposed to the static
universe that scientists until then had proposed. He hypothesized a big bang followed by
expansion, then contraction and an eventual big crunch. This model supposes a closed
universe, but he also proposed similar solutions involving an open universe (which expands
infinitely) or a flat universe (in which expansion continues infinitely but gradually approaches
a rate of zero).

Georges Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaître, RAS Associate[1] (French: [ʒɔʁʒᵊ ləmɛ:tʁᵊ] (About
this soundlisten); 17 July 1894 – 20 June 1966) was a Jesuit trained Belgian Roman Catholic
priest, mathematician, astronomer, and professor of physics at the Catholic University of
Louvain.[2] He was the first to identify that the recession of nearby galaxies can be explained
by a theory of an expanding universe,[3] which was observationally confirmed soon
afterwards by Edwin Hubble.[4][5] He was the first to derive what is now known as Hubble's
law, or the Hubble-Lemaître law,[6][7] and made the first estimation of what is now called the
Hubble constant, which he published in 1927, two years before Hubble's article.[8][9][10][11]
Lemaître also proposed what later became known as the "Big Bang theory" of the origin of
the universe, initially calling it the "hypothesis of the primeval atom".

Howard Percy "Bob" Robertson (January 27, 1903 – August 26, 1961) was an American
mathematician and physicist known for contributions related to physical cosmology and the
uncertainty principle. He was Professor of Mathematical Physics at the California Institute of
Technology and Princeton University.

Prof Arthur Geoffrey Walker FRS FRSE (17 July 1909 in Watford, Hertfordshire, England – 31
March 2001)[1][2] was a leading mathematician who made important contributions to
physics and physical cosmology. Although he was an accomplished geometer, he is best
remembered today for two important contributions to general relativity.
Together with H. P. Robertson, they devised the well-known Robertson-Walker unit for the
Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker cosmological models, which are exact solutions of
the Einstein field equation. Together with Enrico Fermi, he introduced the notion of Fermi–
Walker differentiation.

Einstein himself did not come up with the theory. But
his ideas led scientists to propose it. Friedmann’s idea
was came from Albert Einstein’s general theory of
relativity. Friedmann was able to share his idea
because of the theory of Albert Einstein. To Lemaître he
was the first one to discover the recession of nearby
galaxies can be explained by a theory of an expanding
universe. Robertson
