Big Bang Notes

Two galaxies collided causing an immense explosion as stars crashed into one another

All of what would become the universe was concentrated in a single small point, or singularity, which rapidly expanded into what is now stars, planets, galaxies, matter, and energy.

All matter emerged from a massive black hole at the center of the universe.

Parts of the sun were ripped off by massive internal explosions and were thrown into space where they cooled to become other things, like plants, comets, and other galaxies.

The discovery of black holes

The observation of cosmic microwave background radiation

The detection of gravitational waves

The redshift of light from distant galaxies

It shows that the universe is infinite

Its was the remnant of the Big Bang

It indicates the universe is heating up

It indicates that the universe is cooling down
