[FPSPACE] The Discovery Enterprise: A Seemly Stupid Question: What did the Big Bang Sound Like?

[Alex Michael Bonnici]

Hello Gang,
               Here is my most recent blog:

  "Everyone has heard of the Big Bang which occurred some 14 billion years ago when a kernel of energy smaller than a proton exploded and gave rise to the whole shebang of existence. The extreme heat generated by that explosion exists today as the 3 K microwave background radiation that permeates the whole of the Cosmos. But, in my teaching experience some variation of the following questions always seems to crop up: Did the Big Bang really go BANG, as in KABOOM? And if so what did it sound like? Personally, I always thought these questions were rather stupid and would proceed to remind the offending student of some very salient facts from pervious lessons."
