Big Bang & Relativity  

Relativity - NobelPrize.org - The Nobel Prize's site about Relativity. Helpful web pages that walk you through this theory.

Universe Forum - Big Bang - What was the Big Bang? What powered the Big Bang? Where did the universe come from? Answers to these questions and more!

Big Bang: How did the Universe Begin?- nice page going through the major points of the Big Bang

Red Shift Movie - nice short animation showing redshift and blue shift

Eclipse that changed the Universe - article that describes how Arthur Eddington used an eclipse to provide evidence for Einstein's theory of Relativity

Current Projects that explore Relativity and the Big Bang
    LISA - The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna - a project looking for the waves in spacetime fabric generated by binary systems (blackholes, stars or neutron stars orbiting each other)
    Gravity Probe B - a mission that looked for effects of Earth's movement through the fabric of spacetime
    COBE - the first space telescope to look for the cosmic background radiation
    WMAP - 2nd generation space telescope looking and mapping the cosmic background radiation. Both COBE & WMAP are part of the LAMBDA project

Universe 101 - good site from WMAP a telescope that is looking for the leftover radiation from the Big Bang (and has found it!)

Einstein's Big Idea - companion web site to Nova's program Einstein's Big Idea. Alot of interactives and resources that look at Einstein's ideas. This is a great show by the way! One of the best I have seen.

Cambridge Relativity - great site that goes over the big ideas related to the Big Bang. Simple language, but a work in progress, so some pages may still be incomplete.

Putting Relativity to the Test - discussion of the ways evidence has been gathered for the theory of Relativity

Einstein Light - site filled with answers to your questions about relativity, with or without math!

Einstein at Home detectors - a screen saver that uses your computer's down time to analyze date from gravational waves

FAQ about Gravity - good site with a lot of answers explained in understandable terms
