Halfway back to the ‘Big Bang’?

I must have missed something. Somebody please tell me when the ‘Big Bang THEORY’ ceased being a THEORY and has been found to be FACT.
I must have been out sick that day.

About 13.7 billion years ago, maybe.

Perhaps you could re-acquaint yourself with the distinction between a hypothesis and a theory.

Einstein's Theory of relativity corrected Newton's Laws of motion.

“Halfway back to the ‘Big Bang’?”

Same line of thinking gives scientists the certainty that they know where the CENTER of the universe is.

The center of an infinite universe....


Now what we really should be thinking about is that such an explosion of Gamma and X-rays may have occurred only 7.399999999 billion light years away, and the beam from it will hit Earth next year.

Just think, Something that could wipe out all life on Earth, could actually have happened so far ago we can’t even imagine it, and could happen in the blink of an eye.
