After Penzias and Wilson shared the Nobel Prize in 1965, the Cosmic
Background Explorer (COBE), was rocketed into the sky in 1989.
The data received from COBE confirmed the discovery of Penzias and
Wilson. A great number of scientists evaluated the data produced by
COBE as conclusive proof. Thus the process initiated by Lemaître in
THE QURAN: UNCHALLENGEABLE MIRACLE

the 1920s was substantiated
once again with
new discoveries in the
1990s. 1400 years had
elapsed since the revelation
of the Quran
and the satellite’s findings
validated its statements.
Supposing that
we landed on a desert
island and stumbled
upon ashes: no one
would doubt the fact that there had once been a fire on this island.
The residue radiation that Penzias and Wilson ran across, and the
COBE’s data, indicated the existence of the Big Bang. The contention
by dissenters that the radiation scattered all over space had to be perfectly
uniform in all directions is another indicator of the soundness of
this evidence.
