And there are many things that the BB theory can't explain, such as why it occurred, why we haven't seen another one, why the farthest galaxies are continuing to accelerate, and what the universe is expanding into.
There are also a lot of things that ARE explained, but I'll be damned if I can make sense of any of it. Quantum mechanics comes to mind.

Or to put it another way, we just don't know jack about much of what occurs in deep space and we may never know it all. You are right about unanswered questions. I think we've pretty well shown the galaxy is expanding but how much else do we really know as fact? The expanding galaxy seems to be proof of SOME kind of force moving things and I guess a bang is as good an idea as any.


Not a day goes by that I don't see something that reinforces my belief that people are idiots.
