“STEADY STATE THEORY”

FEATURES OF

STEADY STATE THEORY

 Steady State Theory was first proposed by sir
James Jeans (1920) and again revised from in by sir
Hermann Bondi and Thomas Gold (1948).

 It was further developed by Sir Fred Hoyle to deal

with problems that had arisen in connection with
the alternative Big Bang hypothesis.
 Steady State Theory believes that the universe has always
existed. It explains the universe as it is always the same and has
always been the same and has never changed. It says that the
universe is infinity old, it has no birth date and will never end.

 This theory suggest that new matter is created everywhere in the

universe which makes new galaxy that slowly move away from
each other.
 The steady state theory acknowledge that changes takes place
on a smaller scale.

 Proposes that new stars are continually created at all the time
at the rate needed to replace the stars which have used up their
fuel and have stopped shining.

 This theory believes that the universe is endless in time and

space. It also believes that stars and galaxies die and reform.
Adhering to the perfect cosmological principle, a
principle that asserts that the observable universe
is basically the same time at any time as at any
place.

Proposed as an alternative to the Big Bang Theory.

BEING DISCARDED
1. RADIO TELESCOPE OBSERVATION

 This observation were saying that there were

more cosmic radio sources billion years ago
that there are now. This would suggest that
the universe is changing over time which
contradicted the theory.
2. DISCOVERY OF QUASARS

 Bright objects but are very small, only found at

great distances from us. Light from them was
emitted billions of light years ago.

 The fact that quasars are only found in the early

Universe provides strong evidence that Universe has

3. COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND

 This is a weak background radiation which fills

the whole space and is the same in all directions.

 In the Steady State Theory it is almost

impossible to explain the origin of this radiation.
I believe that God is the creator of the universe. How it
was created is a concept that I find difficult to
understand. I believe that the universe is constantly
changing and evolving. I believe God is in control of our
universe. The Bible is what I think explains every thing
and is what is correct. It is the religion side that I think
is true.
