Although this explanation was not widely accepted even then, it was the first attempt to explain the nature of the universe in a way that did not involve mythology or forces beyond human understanding. (wikipedia.org)
Among other open theoretical questions, the origin of the observed baryon asymmetry in the Universe is not explained within the Standard Model due to a lack of sufficient charge-parity violation and strong cosmological first-order phase transitions. (lu.se)

Planets2
However what you have failed to successfully explain is, 1) how our local system containing the miraculously created earth, Sun, and planets could possibly have been spared from complete vaporization caused by the enormous heat and harmful cosmic radiation generated by your Day 4 cosmic expansion event, and 2) how that event is anything short of a big bang in and of itself! (vachristian.org)
[1] Most of the names of the stars, planets, and constellations of the northern hemisphere are inherited from the terminology of Greek astronomy, [2] which are however indeed derived from the empirical knowledge in Babylonian astronomy , characterized by its theoretical model formulation in terms of algebraic and numerical relations, and to a lesser extent from Egyptian astronomy. (wikipedia.org)
Antimatter2
But this violation of "charge-conjugation parity-reversal symmetry," or CP symmetry for short, wasn't substantial enough to explain the matter-antimatter disparity. (space.com)
It fails however to take into account dark matter and can't even explain why matter wins over antimatter. (lu.se)
