In 2006, researchers used the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (launched by NASA in 2001) to measure variations in the cosmic microwave background (a "faint glow which permeates the universe"). According to these measurements, the universe is estimated to be about 13.7 billion years old, "give or take a few hundred-thousand years".

He also talks further about the many theories that have been proposed to counter the Big Bang Theory due to it concluding there is a beginning or orgin of creation. These additional theories have been broken down to still revert to a beginning. This in essence tries to proves a divine power or creator which frustrates the many scientists that are trying to prove that God does not exist including well known physisict Steven Hawking. The current evidence points overwhelmingly towards this theory being correct, though the means this took place are still unknown.

Christian physicists, such as Dr. John Hartnett,<ref>http://creation.com/starlight-and-time-a-further-breakthrough</ref> have noted that the Big Bang theory was constructed to account for serious pitfalls to the [[theory of evolution]], particularly the needed timescale of billions of years, amply contradicted by terrestial and astronomical evidence. Thus the big bang is trotted out by [[atheist]] evolutionists to silence [[creationist]] opponents, even though the theory is based on enormous amounts of guesswork, speculation, and pure assumptions.
