Three pieces of evidence of universe expansion support the Big Bang Theory. The first piece of evidence, which Edwin Hubble discovered, is that Response area. The second piece of evidence is the change in universal temperature. The temperature Response area . The third piece of evidence is that Cosmic Microwave Background radiation is found Response area.

Three pieces of evidence of universe expansion support the Big Bang Theory. The first piece of evidence, which Edwin Hubble discovered, is that galaxies are moving away from each other. The second piece of evidence is the change in universal temperature. The temperature decreases as the universe expands. The third piece of evidence is that Cosmic Microwave Background radiation is found throughout the universe.
