Universe Theory
The Steady State Theory
• Hermann
Bondi, Thomas
Gold, and Fred
Hoyle proposed
the steady state
theory in 1948.
Hermann Bondi Thomas Gold Fred Hoyle
DRAWBACKS OF THE STEADY STATE THEORY
• It is is not parallel with the law of conservation of energy and
mass.
• The discovery of cosmic microwave background (CMB)
radiation significantly supported the explanations given by
the big bang theory and led many scientists to reject the
steady state theory in 1965.
DRAWBACKS OF THE STEADY STATE THEORY
• It is is not parallel with the law of conservation of energy and
mass.
• The discovery of the cosmic microwave background (CMB)
radiation significantly supported the the big bang theory.
• Recent findings rejects the idea that cosmic radiation was a
result of a supernova.
• It has been proven that radiation is equal in ay direction of
the universe and could not have resulted from supernovae.
OSCILLATING UNIVERSE THEORY
• Oscillating Universe theory, also known as pulsating
theory, proposes that the universe is expanding and will
contract once all the energy after the big bang has been
used up.
Richard Tolman
DRAWBACKS OF THE OSCILLATING UNIVERSE
THEORY
• The suggestion that the universe would collapse on its own
after it reached its full expansion violates some current laws
of physics, such as the postulated existence of dark energy.
