      Hi Omar! Yes, I think the big bang happened. This is not my area of science, but I believe the many other respected scientists who talk about it! From what I understand, there’s evidence that the universe is still expanding and also that all the atoms that we, and everything else on earth is made from, all started off in the stars.

      Hi Omar,
      Yes I do believe that the Big Bang actually happened. I was going to put in the same link as Sue! Have a look at that, and maybe ask some other scientists in the Evolution or Quantum zones.

      To be honest… I am not totally convinced… There must have been something before that somewhere :s I don’t like to dwell on it too much as it does my head in …. I will leave that up to some of the other scientists 🙂
