Science Saturday: Big Bang Theory

Big Bang Conceptualization
BANG!
A singularity is born and matter is sprang.
Before the big bang, nothing existed; not even time, nor matter, nor energy, nor space.
Away from each other, nuclei and electrons race.
As unlikely as it was, a nucleus and an electron combined to make hydrogen.
Atoms made molecule armies and molecules led to a living organism legion.
Our reality is but a pocket inside another realm.
The beginning never ceases to overwhelm.
But what is understood is the ever expanding reaches of our known universe.
Blow up a balloon and see matter disperse.
Look into a telescope and see stars and galaxies as they were hundreds of millions of years ago.
Look at the cosmic microwave background radiation to see a faint glow.
Light and heat are uniform across Earth's sky.
The known universe is in a cooling state after temperatures were so high.
Thirteen-point-seven billion years is a long time.
It took that long from the start until now to make this rhyme.
It took that long for matter to coalesce and evolve into the living beings of today.
There is overwhelming proof to the skeptics' dismay.
