The Universe is a vast‚ enormous space that holds everything that exists from the smallest subatomic particles to the largest galaxies. Galaxies and solar systems are constantly clashing and creating new worlds within our Universe. Within these billions of galaxies‚ are solar systems. Our solar system‚ the Milky Way‚ contains many stars‚ planets‚ black holes and everything in between. The universe is a net that holds everything that exists. Everything that is not within the universe‚ is non-existent

STUDYING THE UNIVERSE * Before 1610‚ people viewed celestial bodies with their naked eyes. * In 1610 Galileo Galilei first used a telescope to observe celestial bodies. * In the following centuries‚ astronomers developed more powerful telescopes. * However‚ details gathered by means of scientific instruments were not enough to satisfy scientists. TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS * Scientists have developed advance equipment in order to explore Earth and other celestial bodies closely

The Creation of the Universe In my short life on this planet I have come to question things that many take upon blind faith. We all know that we must some day die; yet we continuously deny the forces at work inside ourselves‚ which want to search out the answers of what may or may not come after. It is far easier for humanity to accept that they will go to a safe haven and be rewarded for their lives with pleasures and fantasies of an unfathomable scale than to question the existence

Life in the Universe In this talk‚ I would like to speculate a little‚ on the development of life in the universe‚ and in particular‚ the development of intelligent life. I shall take this to include the human race‚ even though much of its behaviour through out history‚ has been pretty stupid‚ and not calculated to aid the survival of the species. Two questions I shall discuss are‚ ’What is the probability of life existing else where in the universe?’ and‚ ’How may life develop in

Age of the Universe The age of the universe is said to be about 13.75 billion years old. The method used in determining this age would be attempting to find the age of chemical elements‚ oldest star clusters‚ as well as white dwarf stars. Scientists also try to find the universes rate of expansion‚ and behavior of globular clusters‚ which are spherical collection of stars. In order to find this‚ scientists can use radioactive decay to determine how old a given mixture of atoms is in rock samples

1. A galaxy is a collection of planets of stars and space. The name of our galaxy is the “milky way”‚ and its shape is of a spiral. 2. Another galaxy found in space is called “Andromeda”. 3. There are millions upon millions of galaxies in the universe. 4. Cosmology is the study of the cosmos. 5. Light Year: The distance that light travels in a vacuum in one year‚ approximately 9.46 trillion (9.46 × 1012) kilometers or 5.88 trillion (5.88 × 1012) miles. Star: A self-luminous celestial body

1. Statement of the problem The issue in the formation of Jupiter is how each company will treat their investment in the company. This paper will perform a consolidation analysis that follows the guidelines of the VIE model laid out in ASC 810-10. I will determine whether Jupiter is a Variable Interest Entity and who is the primary beneficiary. 2. Relevant Facts • Saturn and Venus‚ two unrelated parties‚ formed Jupiter‚ a joint venture • Saturn owns 51% and Venus owns 49%‚ contributing

THE PARADOXES OF TIME TRAVEL David Lewis T travel‚ I maintain‚ is possible. The paradoxes of time travel are oddities‚ not impossibilities. They prove only this much‚ which few would have doubted: that a possible world where time travel took place would be a most strange world‚ different in fundamental ways from the world we think is ours. I shall be concerned here with the sort of time travel that is recounted in science fiction. Not all science fiction writers are clear-headed‚ to be sure

describes the early development and shape of the universe. The Big Bang Theory is the most accepted theory for the origin and evolution of our universe. The big bang theory states that at some time in the distant past there was nothing. It suggests that around 10 to 14 billion years ago‚ the part of the universe we can see today was only a few millimetres across. According to this theory‚ at the beginning of time‚ all of the matter and energy in the universe was concentrated in a very dense state‚ from
