#OriginoftheUniverse

1/ The universe began as an incredibly hot, very dense, single point in space roughly 13.8 billion years ago.

The entire observable universe was the size of a peach and had a temperature of over a trillion degrees.
2/ Cosmologists use sophisticated space missions, ground-based telescopes & complicated calculations 2 paint a clearer picture of th early universe &its formation.
3/ A key part of the evidence comes from observations of th cosmic microwave background, which contains the afterglow of light&radiation left over from the Big Bang.

The Universe consists of 3 types of substance: normal matter, 'dark matter' & 'dark energy'. Normal matter consists of the atoms that make up stars, planets, human beings & every other visible object in th Universe.
@gkarani1 @TTawonga In the currently scientific understanding of the Universe, 70% is dark energy, 25% dark matter and 5% normal matter.
@gkarani1 @TTawonga 3/ Hydrogen is the most common element found in the universe, followed by helium; together, they make up nearly all normal or ordinary matter.

After defining what a universe is, lets move to how it all started.
