Module 1 Flashcards
Most accepted theory of the origin of the universe
Big bang theory
Bigbang started with ______ observation
Edwin hubble
2 observations of edwin hubble
1.milky way is not the only galaxy
2. Galaxies are in constant motion
The birth of the big bang theory was Georges Lamaitre and his question
How did the universe start
Quarks form
Protons and neutrons
Phases of the big bang theory
- Boiling soup
- Superhot fog
- Form atoms
- Galaxy formation era
- First dying star
Explain “Boiling soup” phase
a. rapid cool off
b. Quarks form proton and neutron
Explain “superhot fog” phase
A. Heated proton and electron hinder light
B. First light elements were created
First light elements created
Deuterium, lithium, helium
Explain “form atoms” phase
First and second elements are produced (hydrogen and helium)
Explain “galaxy formation era” phase
Hydrogen and helium form giant clouds that became the galaxies and stars
What produced heavy elements
Dying stars or the supernova
Subatomic particles of an atom
Proton, neutron and electron
Big bang theory timeline
