International Team On Keck Observatory Strengthens Big Bang TheoryLos Angeles CA (SPX) Jun 10, 2013 An international team of scientists using the most powerful telescope on Earth has discovered that the moments just after the Big Bang happened more like the theory predicts, eliminating a significant discrepancy that troubled physicists for two decades. The discovery will be published in the international journal Astronomy and Astrophysics on June 6. One of the most important problems in physics and astronomy was the inconsistency between the lithium isotopes previously observed in the oldest sta ... read more |
