This is the COBE satellite that was sent to find cosmic ripples in 1989.
Summary
• The term “Ex nihilo” is Latin for “out of nothing.”
• This term is implied in Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God create the heavens and the earth.” It can also be found in: Proverbs 3:19, Psalm 90:2, John 1:3, Romans 4:17, Colossians 1:16, acts 4:24, Acts 17:28, 2 Timothy 1:9, Titus 1:2, Hebrews 11:3, and Revelation 4:11. This teaches that God created the universe in totality, which is in accordance with what the great galaxy seeds proved.

Macroevolution: evolution that results in relatively large and complex changes.
The Great Galaxy Seeds are basically bundles of matter, not too small to dissipate and not too large to have the fresh universe collapse on itself. In light of this, an Intelligent Designer would still be necessary to reasonably maintain the balance of these seeds. Without an Intelligent Designer, and based solely in the ideas of macroevolution, it could be deemed implausible that the newly made universe was able to spontaneously maintain stability after such a violent creative reaction.

What are these “Great Galaxy Seeds”? Explain.
In 1948 three scientists predicted that cosmic background radiation exists if the Big Bang
actually happened, but no one looked for it. In 1965 two Bell Lab scientists, Penzias and Wilson,
accidentally discovered it. This light is no longer visible, but the heat can still be detected. This
discovery has exactly the pattern of wavelengths expected for the light and heat produced in a
great explosion. People have tried to find an alternative explanation but have failed.
After the discovery of the cosmic background radiation, scientists believe that if the Big
Bang actually happened, there would be slight variations in the temperature of the cosmic
background radiation. These variations allow matter to congregate by gravitational attraction into
galaxies. NASA launched a satellite called COBE to look for these ripples and their findings
amazed people. COBE found the ripples, but scientists concluded that the explosion and
expansion of the universe was precisely tweaked to cause just enough matter to congregate and
allow galaxy formation, but not enough to cause the universe to collapse back on itself. Any
variations one way or the other and none of us would be here. These ripples are so precise that
they are down to one part in one hundred thousand and they are known as the “fingerprints of the
maker.”
