"Steady-state Hypothesis." Comprehensive and long research has
revealed strong evidence about the fact that the universe has a
beginning. The Steady-state hypothesis, on the other hand, has
become a distant memory in the history of science.
Data shows that the universe came into being from nothing.
Accordingly, the universe has an explosive beginning: the "Big
Bang." Before that, there was nothing: no matter, energy, space,

dense, zero volume point, matter was blasted out at an incredible
speed in all directions, forming stars, planets and other heavenly

time, cooled and assumed its present shape.
At the present time, most books on cosmology, science journals,
