Mermaids‚ cynocephali‚ various bizarre species of beastmen‚ antipodes: all of them were embodiments of this dream. In course of time‚ the limits of the known Universe expanded and it became known that no such creatures existed. The only place to seek for non-human life now is other planets. Is there any hope for finding it? There are a great number of theories concerning extraterrestrial life. According to

According to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)‚ the Universe was formed somewhere between 15-18 billion years ago in a single violent event known as the Big Bang. They later confirmed that the Universe continues to expand as a result of that supernatural event. Backed by Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity‚ along with Hubble’s discovery of an ever expanding universe‚ this particular theory is accepted by the majority of the scientific community. This theory made a huge

In “Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking‚” Hawking discusses his vision of the universe and it’s ability to exist. In the episode‚ Hawking shares his knowledge on how the universe came into existence and how it managed to become what it is today. Hawking also shares the evidence that scientists‚ such as himself‚ have collected through the years. First of all‚ the video discuss that “the universe is constantly expanding… like balloon.” Hawking explains this by a simple demonstration of the Doppler

"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here‚ it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another which states that this has already happened." Douglas Adams The opening line: "In the beginning the Universe was created.

He is trying to show us the history of the universe. I believe this theme is being addressed because of the title and how his picture starts out small but then grows larger and larger just like the universe has. After a visual analysis it helped me look deeper into the painting itself. It helped me understand what the artist

Existence Of Matter In The Universe What is the Universe made of and what evidence s there for this ? The universe consists of billions of galaxies that each contain billions of stars. Around some stars Planets and moons trace elliptical orbits. Within these orbits there are spherical bodies. These range in size from large asteroids to tiny particles smaller than a grain of dust‚ all of this is classified as baryonic matter by Astronomers. The fundamental core of the universe is known as the atom

The Creation Of The Universe‚ The Earth‚ And Human Beings In the beginning there was only darkness. For many millions of years this darkness remained. There were no stars‚ no sun‚ and no earth. But one day something very special happened. The darkness created light. It was a very small amount of light but it was just enough. The light became the husband of the dark. After a long while both the light and the dark became bored. The light began to insult the dark and the light replied with equally

Some Evidence for an Infinite Universe Observations from the WMAP satellite show with a 0.5% margin of error that the universe has a flat geometry‚ which suggests that its size is unbounded.[i] Director of the Institute for Cosmology at Tufts University‚ Alexander Vilenkin says‚ “The theory of inflation is by far the best explanation we have for the big bang. If we accept this theory‚ and refuse to mutilate it by adding any ad hoc‚ unnecessary features‚ then we have no choice but to accept

acceptable explanation for the creation of the universe. The majority of scientists claim that there is no room for religion in the creation of the universe and that the creation can be explained only with science. However there are a small group of scientists that believe the God of classical theism had taken part in the creation of universe. One example is Michael Behe. As a professor of biochemistry he believes that some aspects of the universe are too intricate to have just evolved through evolution
