The Big Bang Theory, ... and this despite the fact that I believe the universe is expanding now. This expansion is still accelerating so the small acceleration itself could result in the expansion (speed distribution) without having to postulate an extremely rapid acceleration at time zero and other ludicrous extreme physical conditions.
... and yes I know also about the cosmological microwave background's perfect black body curve and such observations.
Oh, nooow I see why people just say it was god.

I mean, define "scientific". A currently-held, consensus theory? Because it's easy to find theories that were developed in accordance with scientific theory, held for a while, but discarded.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_theories
In physics, aether theories (also known as ether theories) propose the existence of a medium, a space-filling substance or field as a transmission medium for the propagation of electromagnetic or gravitational forces. "Since the development of special relativity, theories using a substantial aether fell out of use in modern physics, and are now replaced by more abstract models."
