BIG BANG SNAP JUDGMENT

Around the room are a series of statements printed on paper. Place a sticky note under all of the statements you believe to be true. At this stage, you don’t have to defend your answer, though you may be called upon to explain how you voted, and to the best of your ability, why. Later, we will review these claims in depth and you will definitely need to provide more detail then.

Claims:

1. We have a sense of what happened during the first few minutes of the Big Bang.

2. The four fundamental forces are gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force.

3. As the Universe expanded, it got hotter.

4. The formation of the first atoms had no effect on the Universe.

5. Cosmic background radiation is compelling evidence that supports the Big Bang theory.
