Ask About it - The Big Bang Presentation
In this presentation from our Ask About it STEM range, we respond to a student who asked a question about the Big Bang. After briefly discussing what a scientific theory is, the presentation outlines the history and evidence behind the Big Bang theory, and how scientists believe the universe expanded and changed since the Big Bang.
If you and your students have a question you would like to ask, email it to STEM@Teachthis.com.au.
