"...in 1942 Bondi returned to work in the Admiralty on the refinement of
radar techniques, which brought him into contact with Fred Hoyle, and
shortly afterwards they were joined by Tommy Gold. Together, in the 1950s,
Bondi, Hoyle and Gold would cause controversy when they proposed the
"steady-state" theory for the origin of the universe, which challenged the
idea that the universe had begun with the explosion of a super atom (what
Hoyle called the "big bang" theory). This was to give Bondi an entrée into
American science at the highest level."
