Big Bang Theory Steady State Theory
Scientists have not found objects older than 14 billion years.

Cosmic radiation levels were predicted by this theory before they were detected.

Galaxies are moving outward from a central point.

Answer 1

Here's the matching of each piece of evidence to the appropriate theory:

• Big Bang Theory:

  • Scientists have not found objects older than 14 billion years.
  • Cosmic radiation levels were predicted by this theory before they were detected.
  • Galaxies are moving outward from a central point.

• Steady State Theory:

  • (none of the provided evidence supports this theory)

In summary:

• Big Bang Theory: 1) Scientists have not found objects older than 14 billion years, 2) Cosmic radiation levels were predicted by this theory before they were detected, 3) Galaxies are moving outward from a central point.
• Steady State Theory: None of the provided evidence.
