Question

What's the steady state theory

Answer 1

In cosmology, a view that the universe is always expanding but maintaining a constant average density, with matter being continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate that old ones become unobservable as a consequence of their increasing distance and velocity of recession.

Answer 2

Answer:

A theory explaining the model of the Universe.

Explanation:

Steady State theory, proposed in 1948 by Sir Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold, and Sir Fred Hoyle, suggests that the universe is always expanding while maintaining a constant average density. This is achieved as matter is continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate as that of old ones becoming non-observable. This occurs as a consequence of increasing distance and velocity of recession of old stars and galaxies.

As per this theory, Universe has no beginning and no end in time. If looked at it from a grand scale, the arrangement of galaxies and average density remain same.

Later observation of the Universe gave results contradictory to Steady State Theory. This has led to increase in support of Big Bang Model of the Universe.
