Do we know where, in space, the Big Bang took place?

Answer 1

The Big Bang created space itself. In other words, the Big Bang occurred at all points in space simultaneously.

The COBE (cosmic background explorer) satellite measured the background radiation (a remnant of the Big Bang). The radiation was not identical in all directions, but it was present in all directions.

Answer 2

Yes, we know. The Big Bang was not an explosion at some point in empty space that created all matter and energy. We really shouldn't think of it as an explosion at all. It was more like a Big Expansion. It happened everywhere at once. Every point therefore is the center of the Universe. Since Creation, space (created by the Big Bang itself) has been expanding and distances between material objects and distances across energy waves have been increasing.

Answer 3

Newtons 3rd law confirmed by Einstein in relativity says:-
"All forces occur in pairs, and these two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction."
So the hypothesis of the big bang would seem impossible
( a Theory the largest know release of energy ever known, came from nowhere) unless both newton & einstein are wrong. This is very unlikly as most of modern physics is based in some part on the works of these two masters.
However although the current concept of the big bang being the start of everything is unlikly, the string theory concept of energy release would seem " if energy cannot be lost only changed" would possibly answer both the Blackhole (loss of energy) and the super nova (release of energy).
The concept of the big bang being some form of super nova according to our current understanding of Theoretical Phisics would seem more likly (if only we could join the two ends of the string). If this personal view is exceptable then it must have occured within the know Universe.

Answer 4

No we will never know that,but space is expanding in all directions at once,seeming to go away and to us, but we are moving too,red shift blue shift.20 billion years of light ,explosions single stars ,galaxies clouds of gases merging , pulsars , quasars ,supernovae implosions,then for me the key to the whole universes construction and destruct ionare Blackholes ,gravity gone mad.They created all, they will draw us back sucking ,deflating ,light space time matter to wence it came infinity in reverse infitessimal from 0 / 1 then 1 / 0. on then off.the blackholes merge to make supermassive ones not massive in size but in gravity pulling in light and all from further a field .back to point 0.

Answer 5

If you accept the 'Big Bang Theory', which I do, then you accept that the entire universe evolved from that one event. Consequently, the big bang happened everywhere; even where you are right now. We are all remnants of the big bang itself.

Answer 6

Spacial relativity makes it impossible to tell as all stars and galaxies seem to be moving away from us (or us from them).

Since it's expected that objects closer to the center would travel slower than objects at the outer edge anything "behind us" would be going slower and still exhibit a red shift as we are moving from it thus it would seem to be moving away from us.

Answer 7

we are not even 100% sure that the big bang theory exists.
many scientists disagree with this theory!

Answer 8

Just to the left of the five hundredth parsec in the system of Androgenous Alpha Millipera or somewhere quite near.

Answer 9

Observations now place the age of the universe at around 13.7 billion years.

Answer 10

it is a theory..know one knows it is really true...there are many theories regarding d universe..big bang created d universe..
