Presentation Transcript

  1. Birth of the Universe… Jeannine Fowler Duhn, duhn, duhn, DUUUHNNN!

  2. The Universe! • Begun about 13.7 billion years ago as…a… • infinitesimally small • infinitely hot • infinitely dense • Something… • Hhhmm…something…but what?

  3. A singularity! • Zones which defy our current understanding of physics • Thought to exist at the core of black holes

  4. Black holes are areas of intense gravitational pressure • The pressure is thought to be so intense that finite matter is actually squished into infinite density • These Zones of infinite density are called singularities

  5. Where did it come from? • We don't know. • Why did it appear? • We don't know.

  6. Summary of the Big Bang Theory: • After this singularity came about, it inflated, expanded, and cooled. • Going from very, very small and very, very hot, to the size and temperature of our current universe • Expands and cools to this day

  7. Summary of the Big Bang Theory: (cont.) • Hundred billion other stars in a galaxy soaring through the cosmos. • All of which is inside of an expanding universe. • Began as an infinitesimal singularity which appeared out of nowhere for reasons unknown.

  8. Questions?

  9. Misconceptions of the Big Bing Theory
