General Relativity and Noether's theorem were both found in 1916, and so
physicists knew that there was not a law of conservation of energy, so they
must have known the distant past and distant future must be very different
from how things are now. So why didn't they know in 1916 that something
like the Big Bang must be true and something like the Steady State Theory
must be wrong? But the Steady State Theory didn't die till the 1960's.
