The Steady State Theory
| Description: The Steady State Theory is a cosmological model that proposes that the universe is continuously expanding and creating new matter to maintain a constant density. This theory was developed in the 1940s as an alternative to the Big Bang theory, which suggests that the universe began from a single point and has been expanding ever since. The Steady State Theory was eventually disproven by observations that showed that the universe is not in a steady state, but is instead expanding at an accelerating rate. | |
