telescopes. We also do not have to worry about the weather. We can also put them up in a helium balloon into the upper levels of the Earth's atmosphere. If the earth's atmosphere and ozone were not there, we would be cooked, the ocean would boil off, polar ice caps would melt, and life would end on Earth. Dicke and peebles modified the Big Bang theory to the Hot Big Bang theory by their observations. Light can be a wave or a particle depending on how energy is structured, and this is where cosmic radiation comes into the Hot Big Bang model. If it is a particle it is a photon, or a light package. Hydrogen ions, which are proton and neutron stuck togethr, could absorb photons and spit it back out at a different frequency, so there is a continuous radiation spectrum across the sky. The universe was opaque with radiation for the first million years or so after the Big Bang. Then the universe expanded enough so that it cooled down to about 3000 Kelvins, which occurred millions of years after the Big Bang. The temperature and density was low enough that hydrogen ions and electrons combined to form a hydrogen atom, and it started to be matter and not just radiation. In this instant the universe is expanding and penzias and Wilson proved there is background radiation. Everything else is theory. In 1905, Einstein suggested that atoms might be proven to exist if we observed dust particles moving in a random manner in liquid. if dust particles are uniform the atoms would not have existed. In 1911, Ernest Rutherford showed that atoms do exist. An atom is a positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons that orbit around the nucleus. He analyzed how material reacted with electro magnetic fields to prove it. James Chadwick discovered the neutron, which is a neutrally charged particle. They do not react to the electro magnetic field and they are the building blocks of matter. During the late 1940's many new particles ...
