The fact that support the big bang theory are :
The spectra of all distant galaxies is redshifted showing that the universe is expanding.
The explanation of observed abundance of light element in the universe
The prediction and discovery of cosmic background radiation

How and why does the CMBR, redshifts of distant galaxies, and relative abundances of the elements support a beginning to our universe? About 380,000 years after the big bang, the universe became transparent to light. What had to occur for this to happen and what remnant is left behind that we can see today? Go to Planck and The Cosmic Microwave Background and answer the following: How accurate is the the Planck data? What do the different colors help us...
9/ the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to 3 men who study white dwarf supernova explosions, which are known as Type la supernovae. The following problem is designed to give you a feel for what they did, and the sorts of apparent brightnesses and distances they were working with. A typical Type la supernova explosion has a luminosity of 1.72 x 10^36 W. If we observe such a supernova to have an apparent brightness of 1.25 x 10^-17...
