Origin of the Universe

How old is the universe?

How old is our solar system?

What kind of species is “Lucy”? The first and the oldest human ancestor skeleton found

One of the books of the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old testament which describes How God created the universe in a span of six days

A Hindu text which describes the universe as an infinitely oscillating universe in which a cosmic egg or Brabmada expands out of a single point called Bindu

The philosopher who believed that the original state of the cosmos was a primordial mixture of all its ingredient, then eventually separated by a whirling motion ultimately producing the cosmos of separate material objects (primordial universe)

Name of the Philosophers who believed in an atomic universe composed of tiny, inseperable, and indestructible atoms.

Stoic philosophers of ancient Greek believed that the universe is like a giant living body with the __________ as the most important parts

Describes that the universe is static, steady stare infinite, where matter is uniformly distributed and the universe is gravitationally balanced but unstable

Rene Descartes outlined a model of the universe wherein it involved a system of huge swirling whirlpools of fine matter producing what would later be called as?

Assumed that the universe was static, dynamically stable, and is neither expanding nor contracting through his theory called “theory of relativity”

He proved that the universe was not static through light emissions (color spectrum)

The mainstream explanation of how the universe was created which describes that the universe as originating from an infinitely tiny and dense point or singularity

What did Alexander Friedman and Georges Lamaitre contributed in 1920?

Followed the general theory of relativity equations of the universe with positive curvature resulting to the universe expanding and then contracting due to pull of its gravity in a perpetual cycle of Big Bang followed by the Big Crunch.

Predicts that a universe that expanded but did not change density; matter was inserted into the universe as it expanded in order to maintain a constant density

A theory that sees our universe as just one of the many “bubbles” that grew as part of a multiverse in 1983

Has 11 dimensions and gives us the notion of multiverse/parallel universe

Representation of an idea, an object, or even process that is used to describe and explain a phenomenon

A model by Claudius Ptomely in which he explains that the Earth is at the center of our solar system

A model by Nicolas Copernicus in which he explains that the sun is the center of our solar system

Earliest known period, also known as “Planck Era”, of our Universe where all matter was condensed on a single point of infinite density and extreme heat.

Era wherein the single atomic nucleus sized particle expanded to 10^35 meters in width

Era where our Universe’s Fundamental particles and energy was made up (quarks, electrons, protons and nuetrons)
