A Dialectical-Materialist View of the Big Bang

The big bang, widely accepted in a variety of forms by most physical scientists today, was first put forward in rudimentary form by a Belgian priest-astronomer, Georges LeMaître, in 1927. LeMaître’s concept of an expanding universe (not yet as a consequence of a "big bang") was stimulated by the earlier discoveries of American astronomer Edwin Hubble and others that galaxies were in motion at high speeds and the work of the Soviet mathematician Alexander Friedmann, who showed that an expanding universe was a possible mathematical consequence of Einstein’s 1915 general theory of relativity. Astronomical observations established that the properties of the universe were essentially the same everywhere, independent of the position in the universe. Further work by Hubble showed that galaxies were moving away from each other at speeds related to the distance.
