TRIVIA TIME: Primordial fireball is an alternative term for the radiation era in the Big Bang Theory. It's also known as the epoch of recombination and it was at this time that photons could travel freely throughout the universe for the first time.

Georges Lemaitre was one of the first to come up with the idea of an expanding universe and what was known as the Big Bang Theory of the origin of the universe, which he himself called his "hypothesis of the primeval atom" or "cosmic egg".

TRIVIA TIME: Did you know that the term "big bang" was coined by Fred Hoyles during a March 1949 BBC radio interview where he stated "one [idea] was that the universe started its life a finite time ago in a single huge explosion, and that the present expansion is a relic of the violence of this explosion. This big bang idea seemed to me to be unsatisfactory even before detailed examination showed that it leads to serious difficulties."
