Abstract This paper discusses the various theories that were developed beginning at the end of the nineteenth century and leading over time to superstring theory as a way of explaining the fundamental nature of the universe, with necessary earlier ideas including relativity theory, quantum theory, and the idea of higher dimensions over the four usually cited.
From the Paper "The development of superstring theory required a number of theoretical shifts from the earlier Newtonian model of the universe, which itself had supplanted other ideas about the nature of reality. In this development, the nature of the human relationship to the universe changed because of scientific theories of the time that were offered, that countered the prevailing beliefs, and that seeped down into the culture to be expressed in art, literature, and the popular press in various ways. The central figure in this shift was Albert Einstein, though he was not alone in making discoveries that would alter the prevailing Newtonian, Copernican, and common-sense view of time and space and the immutability of both."

From The Big Bang To Life On Earth, 2000. This paper examines the history of the Big Bang theory and how life may have been created on Earth. 2,545 words (approx. 10.2 pages), 5 sources, $ 77.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines the Big Bang theory, and how the planet Earth is thought to have come about. The author discusses how if life on Earth was created via the Big Bang, could not humans expect to find intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, created in the same manner? The paper looks at whether humans have the technology to discover possible extraterrestrial life.
From the Paper "Should we as humans expect to find intelligent life elsewhere in the universe? There are many reasons for and against this concept, but first we should trace just how our terrestrial life started. The beginning of time and the universe began with the Big Bang. This was an explosion that started the expansion of the universe. In the most basic sense, the standard model is simply the idea that every bit of the matter and energy in the universe was once compressed to an unimaginable density. In the big bang, the material exploded outward into the formation of matter that we see today."

The Big Bang and The Birth of The Universe, 2006. An overview of the big bang theory and how it attempts to answer the question of creation. 1,575 words (approx. 6.3 pages), 2 sources, $ 62.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The Universe around us still contains many mysteries that are the subject of both our imagination and scientific research. One of the oldest questions is the question of creation. The currently accepted theory that addresses this problem is so called The Big Bang Theory. Even though there are still some skeptics regarding its validity, it is the hypothesis that has found solid evidence. This paper discusses the big bang theory, pioneered by George Gamow who based his ideas on the previous concept of exploding 'primeval atom.

The Big Bang Theory, 2004. An overview of the Big Bang theory of the origin of the universe. 2,736 words (approx. 10.9 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 81.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses how the Big Bang theory is considered by many to be the most plausible model concerning creation and how modern educational institutions, especially from elementary school to undergraduate university level, continue to teach the Big Bang without question or qualification. It provides an overview of the physics of the theory and also looks at other theories, such as the Steady State theory, which have departed form the original model.
From the Paper "From the beginning of the recording of human consciousness, man has looked up to the skies of heaven and pondered the creation of the universe. The earliest recorded writings on the subject addressed the universe, and its nature, from the most basic origins. These writings included the questions of whether a ?higher power/omniscient being? was responsible for its creation, if the universe was based on a singular ?event? that resulted in its evolution, to the most basic, and seemingly logical idea (to many ancient sources, anyway) that the universe was simply infinite, uncreated, and forever unchanging."

A Look at the Big Bang Theory, 2002. A study of the sources that support and question the Big Bang Theory of the beginning of the universe. 1,439 words (approx. 5.8 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 47.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The writer gives a background of the Big Bang Theory and explores the theory as an explanation of the beginning of the universe. However, since the 1940s and the introduction of this theory, scientists have raised questions as to the validity of the explanation and continue to research other ways in which the universe might have been created. The paper traces some of this research.
From the Paper "One such area of research has been the model for the expansion of the universe and so for the Big Bang. One theory offered to explain this is the inflationary model, and over the last two decades what has happened to this model shows some of the ways scientific truth is pursued and fine-tuned. Alan Guth developed the idea in 1979 and wrote it in his notebook. Inflation was the name for the mechanism Guth proposed for igniting cosmic expansion and which might have operated for as little as 10-35 seconds. Still, it would have whipped up all the matter and energy in the universe and laid the seeds for galaxies and galaxy clusters in that brief time, and in that time the universe would have blossomed exponentially from as small as 10-24 centimeters across to perhaps the size of a pumpkin. Michael Turner of the University of Chicago describes inflation as "the most important idea in cosmology since that of the big bang itself.""

The Big Bang, 2006. An explanation of the big bang theory - how our earth was formed. 1,144 words (approx. 4.6 pages), 7 sources, MLA, $ 39.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper shows the scientific progression of the creation of earth from tiny particles through to the earth we know today. The paper explains that, once enough atoms gathered together, stars were formed. The writer explains that our earth was the result of the explosion of a star which was too small to sustain the thermo nuclear reactions, so it eventually cooled and became a solid mass. The paper describes two theories of how DNA was created. The writer concludes that the seeds of life, containing DNA, from which all living creatures on earth grew, came from outer space.
From the Paper "How life originated is one of the most debated and most sought after question. Life as we know it requires water and, until one billion years ago, the earth was too hot to sustain liquid water, so we know that life on Earth must have formed within the last one billion years. There is evidence that shows that the oldest life we can detect occurred 500 million years ago. "We now understand that all life on Earth contains DNA, which is a long complex carbon-based strand consisting of billions of molecules. Every plant and animal on Earth has DNA. This DNA contains the instructions of how to grow and replicate itself, thereby creating more life. A single strand of DNA is unbelievably complicated, even in the smallest organisms. How is it possible that such a complicated thing was created in the short span of only one billion years? "According to the "Big Bang" theory, who maintain the belief that life on Earth was created in some primordial soup. Somehow a soup formed consisting of water, carbon and other elements and by chance eventually some of these elements came together in a form, which reproduced itself. The key feature of life it is that is able to create a duplicate of itself. The problem that scientists have faced with this theory is that they have never been able to replicate this primordial soup."

Big Bang Theory, 2000. An examination of the arguments attempting to support or discount the theory of the origins of the universe. 1,350 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 4 sources, $ 47.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
From the Paper "Background
The Big Bang Theory is an explanation for the beginning of the universe. The universe today is expanding, as can be seen in the way all matter is moving outward. Tracing this movement back through time takes all matter to a single point, leading to the view that at one time all matter was concentrated in a singularity which for some unknown reason exploded, throwing all material now seen in the universe outward from that central point. There are various corollaries to this theory, such as the issue of whether the expanding universe will continue to expand forever or will eventually reach an end point and fall back on itself. There are also various consequences of the Big Bang which can be used to determine if the theory has validity. A number of researchers have examined aspects of the Big Bang theory and developed ideas..."

From the Paper "Cosmology and the Big Bang Theory
Overview
Since the beginning of human history, there have been questions about where the "stuff" that composes our universe comes from. In cosmology, the study of the origin and evolution of the universe, theories are put forward to explain the known facts and assumptions about the stars and everything we know and sense.
There are "steady state" theories that propose that everything in the universe is pretty much the way it always has been. The steady state theory posits that the universe is contained within a "closed" system, and so the assumption could be made that the universe extends for a vast though finite distance in all directions. However, in 1823 a German cosmologist named Wilhelm Olbers asked the question, "Why is the sky dark at night?" Olbers ..."

Abstract The paper argues the scientific big bang theory and order in the development of our universe. It describes the hierarchy of events and the Great Chain of Being theory. In particular, it discusses the electron atom nucleus universe expands origin universe Big Bang primordial ball creation overall order. This paper is well formatted with intelligent depth to the argument of the creation of life and our planet.
From the Paper "Electrons circle the nucleus of an atom. Untold trillions of atoms collide together and explode. The universe expands. Electrons race down the copper wires of an electric cable. The sun shines. Leaves digest the sunlight, produce nutrients, live, grow, die, and fall to the ground. The wind bears aloft the leaves, scatters them over earth and sea. The tide moves them, pushes them up into rivers where at last they settle into the mud. Salmon swim upstream; lay their eggs on the muddy bottoms of lakes and rivers. A powerful grizzly bear nuzzles the icy water of a mountain brook. His great paw sweeps into the water and catches a darting salmon. Men come; establish a city on the banks of the stream. They drive the bear off. Their boats coast upon the surface of the sparkling water. Nets plumb the frigid depths, resurface filled with salmon. The men eat the salmon. The salmon are digested, turned into fodder for a thousand other creatures and into the food that builds civilizations. Digested again, these minute particles break down into molecules, and the molecules into atoms. A lone atom floats off in the vast emptiness of space. Electrons circle the atom?s nucleus. These are cycles, yes, but wherein lays their ultimate origin? Is there a connection between all that makes up the universe? Is there a plan?"

Stephen Hawking, 2007. A review of Stephen Hawking's book, "A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes." 1,426 words (approx. 5.7 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 47.95 »

Abstract This paper discusses Stephen Hawking's book, "A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes." It describes some of the concepts that Hawking discusses in his book, such as his allusions to God and his discussions on the "classical" and the "quantum" theory of gravity. The paper also briefly describes Hawking's physical and personal challenges in life.
From the Paper "Hawking discusses the "classical" and the "quantum" theory of gravity, in a way that makes sense to the average non-science-focused person. The "classical" theory of gravity (based on "real space-time") offers only two ways the universe can behave, Hawking writes (135): either the universe has been around "for an infinite time," or otherwise it has had "...a beginning at a singularity at some finite time in the past." As to the "quantum" gravity theory there is a third possibility in terms of a definition. That is, space-time could possibly be "finite in extent and yet...have no singularities that formed a boundary or edge." In other words, the surface of the earth is indeed finite, we can walk on it and build on it; but it has no "edge" so if you go sailing off "into the sunset, you don't fall off the edge or run into a singularity," he continues. And he adds some humor to his explanation, as he often does in this book: "I know," he says, adding to the concept of not falling off the edge of the earth, "...Because I have been round the world!""

Big Wave Cruise: A Case Study, 2007. An analysis of the human resource weaknesses present in the Big Wave Cruise company. 2,168 words (approx. 8.7 pages), 12 sources, MLA, $ 67.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper shows how the Big Wave Cruise organization must make some significant changes to their human resources strategies in order to become more competitive in an increasingly competitive industry. The paper discusses how the organization does not have the level of employee commitment to the organization that is so critical to its success. The paper contends that Big Wave Cruise must address the training issue currently plaguing the company, the perception and/or reality of an excessive workload on employees and the unacceptable compensation plan.
Outline:
Introduction
Division of Labor at Big Wave Cruise
The Perception of Lack of Skills by Big Wave Employees
The Perception of Excessive Workload by Big Wave Employees
Inadequate Compensation Received by Big Wave Cruise Employees
Conclusion
From the Paper "The cruise industry is a hyper-competitive industry, as the Big Wave Cruise organization has discovered. Even with the phenomenal growth rate of the industry, Big Wave has felt the increased competition as competitors enter the market with newer ships, better technology, and more exotic destinations. Add to this challenge the increased demand from customers for higher levels of customer service, including 24-hour entertainment options and catering, and it becomes clear that even a well positioned cruise line is bound to feel the strains from increased threats in the industry. For Big Wave Cruise, these threats are compounded by internal weaknesses specifically within their human resource strategies."
