Didn’t they come up with the theories of “dark” energy and matter in order to fudge the calculations that disproved some pet creation theory, like the Big Bang?

There are a couple more problems, I’ve heard, as well.
Where are the monopole magnets and the missing anti-matter?

Why can Hubble “see” further away, light-years-wise, than they estimate the universe is old?

Magnetic fields can send particles to infinity:

No. Astrophysicists observed some time ago that the rotation and certain other behavior of galaxies seemed to require the galaxies have more, and more smoothly distributed, mass than was accounted for by their stars (the non-dark, or baryonic, matter). In other words, galaxies spun more like they were solid discs rather than collections of stars separated by light years from one other.

This phenomenon would require some explanation regardless of the origin of the present universe. Red shift and other evidence of expansion continues to support the Big Bang theory notwithstanding other phenomena as of yet not explained.
