Big Bang—A Planned Event

DISCOVERY OF GOD a result of this explosion, its components began to spread outwardly, and eventually, the present universe with all its stars and planets was formed. According to the news published in The Times of India (December 11, 1977), two scientists from California have arrived at new facts showing that the Big Bang was a much calmer and more orderly event than is generally understood. In a statement from the American space agency NASA, Dr Richard A. Muller (b. 1944) and Dr. George Fitzgerald Smoot (b. 1945) said they found in their research that the universe is completely around them and spreading at the same speed. Most scientists believe that the universe began with a big bang. Some think that it was in a dispersed state, which created the quality of a vortex in matter. However, the latest evidence clearly shows that no “explosion” occurred in the known sense. Instead, it was a quiet event of a release of energy, a reality that the scientists could not understand even till now. It was a much more complex event than it is currently understood. Both theories are based on the background radiation detected by the sensitive instruments on NASA’s U-2 aircraft. An aircraft was flown to an altitude of 20,000 meters. It is believed that a ray was released during the initial explosion. These rays were first discovered in 1965. The U-2 spacecraft has found certain rays in every part of the universe. There is so much order and arrangement in them that the speed of celestial bodies can be measured with utmost accuracy.
