no because the big bang theory is wrong. Ok lets say i have a shed, and i put 1000 lb of dynomite in it. Then i light it, will the explosion make something good or just destroy and make nothing. The big bang theory says that this explosion made planets and everything else. CRAP

I'm not sure, but I think the rest of the answers are answering the wrong question. Do you mean the movements of bodies orbiting and revolving in relation to each other? Since almost everybody else so far has talked about expansion of the universe, etc, I'll talk about the above question.
The movements that we see are due to energy and matter reacting in their situation. First off, when the big bang allegedly occurred, huge amounts of energy and matter were released. The universe was a very hot place. The matter held a lot of that energy in the form of heat. The matter began to clump together in big, hot clouds due to the force of gravity. Most of the matter was hydrogen and helium. These formed the first nebulae, stars, galaxies. When you have a situation like this, there is going to be a lot of movement. Hot things are going to be less dense, cold things are going to be more dense. When you have a situation with a heat source in the center like a star or group of stars surrounded by gaseous matter of varying densities, the warmer matter will tend to rise above the cooler matter and be cooled in the process. The cooler matter will tend to sink toward the gravity source and will be heated by it, becoming then less dense. This is movement that occurs on its own, given gravity, heat, and matter. So movement does occur, even from the beginning.
Regarding the current situation we see in the sky, any planet or other body within a star's gravitational pull has to orbit it. If it is still, it will just be pulled toward it. It will fall. The centrifugal force must balance out the pull of the star to make the orbit stable. If it is too slow, it will fall toward the star, if it is too fast it'll fly off away from the star. Obviously this could cause it to collide with something either way, either a planet or the sun. During the formation of our solar system, there were many objects like this as evidenced by all the craters in just about every rocky body in the solar system.
So... They move because they have to, to avoid being consumed by the star. The same thing is true of galactic centers, black holes, planets, or anything else that acts as a gravitational point and can have things orbiting it.

We're still riding the initial shock wave of the big-bang, and that why even though every particle in the universe attracts every other particle in the universe, the universe and the galaxies in it are still moving away from each other. It is expected that some billions of years down the line, things will stabilize and either one of two things will happen:
1. The force of gravitation will come out stronger and will start the big crunch.
2. The force of gravitation will find an equilibrium and the universe will continue to expand at a steady rate, much slower than today...

Yes, the bodies are continually moving farther away from every other body. That's what Hubble discovered looking through his telescopes in the 1920s. The more distant a galaxy was, the faster it was receding from us here on Earth. However, superimposed on the big picture, you have local movements of the stars and galaxies determined by Newton and Einstein's theory of Relativity. Someday, for example, the Andromeda galaxy will collide with our Milky Way galaxy.

Yes actually...The initial explosion is still sending all of the planets outwards for who knows how much longer. Theoretically all of the bodies in the universe will slowly come back together and the process will repeat itself...though I am not completely sure on the validity of that theory.
Hope this helps

yes...but...
Brothergoosetg, the universe is not expanding, because if its expanding into something, what?
The universe creates everything, in all existance. It can't expand into something.

yes, it also explains why the universe is constantly expanding
