Physics & Cosmology
Steady-State Theory

Proponents
Fred Hoyle, Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold
Evidence For
Satisfied the "perfect cosmological principle" that the universe looks the same at all times, not just all places.
Evidence Against
Discovery of the cosmic microwave background in 1965 strongly favored an evolving, hot early universe and is considered to have effectively falsified it.
