Origin of The Universe

Question 1

Non-Science

arose from indefinite sea at the first rising of the sun.

Answer 1

Egyptians

Question 2

Non-Science

due to the intense stomach pain of god Mbombo (Bumba), he vomited the stars, sun and moon.

Answer 2

Kuba People of Central America

Question 3

Non-Science

Gods sacrificed Purusha and his body parts become the sky, earth, sun and moon respectively.

Answer 3

India

Question 4

Non-Science

Biblical based story in the Old Testament

Answer 4

Creation Myth

Question 5

Scientific Thoughts

matter is constantly created due to the expansion. Proposed by Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold, Sir Fred Hoyle.
- No beginning or end: indefinite age
- Constant creation. Continually replenished in one place and being destroyed elsewhere.
- With the same density of the universe, as new galaxies form, old ones die.
- As galaxy moves apart, matter will be formed that will form new galaxies.

Answer 5

Steady State Theory

Question 6

Scientific Thoughts

proposes a period of extremely rapid exponential expansion of the universe prior to the more gradual big bang expansion. Rapid expansion of expanding bubble or vacuum energy.

Answer 6

Inflation Theory

Question 7

Scientific Thoughts

When the universe has reached its maximum expansion, matter collapses and return back to singularity.

Answer 7

Bug Crunch Theory

Question 8

Scientific Thoughts

Proposed by George Lemaitre and Aleksander Friedman. It is the theory that estimated the age of the universe. It is a result of the expansion from a tiny, dense and hot matter. Matter, Energy, Time and Space (METS) was created.

Answer 8

BigBang Theory

Question 9

Stages of Evolution

dominance of radiation. Smaller stages are called the “Epoch”.

Answer 9

Radiation Era

Question 10

Stages of Evolutions

10^40 Kelvin @ after the big bang (No matter existed in the universe at this time. Only energy and ancestor of the forces of nature (gravity, strong nuclear, electroweak and electromagnetic)
SE: Splitting off the gravity from the forces of nature.

Answer 10

Plank Epoch

Question 11

Stages of Evolutions

10^35 K @ 10^-36 (SE: Strong nuclear energy brooked away form the forces of nature.

Answer 11

Grand Unification Epoch

Question 12

Stages of Evolutions

10^33 K @ 10^-36 (SE: Universe expanded rapidly and the formation of electron, quarks and anti-quarks particles.)

Answer 12

Inflationary Epoch

Question 13

Stages of Evolutions

10^20 K @ 10^-32 (SE: Splitting of two remaining forces)

Answer 13

Electroweak Epoch

Question 14

Stages of Evolutions

10^16K @ 10^-12 (SE: Present of all ingredients; however, it is still hard to form the subatomic particles due to hotness and density.

Answer 14

Quark Epoch

Question 15

Stages of Evolutions

10^12 Kelvin @ 10^-6 (SE: Due to the cooling down of the universe, the quarks bind and formed the proton and neutron.

Answer 15

Hadron Epoch

Question 16

Stages of Evolutions

10^10 K @ 100 seconds after (The proton and neutron fused and created the first chemical element, which is the Hydrogen)

Answer 16

Lepton and Nuclear Epoch

Question 17

7 Stages of Radiation Era

Answer 17

Plank Epoch
Grand Unification Epoch
Inflationary Epoch
Electroweak Epoch
Quark Epoch
Hadron Epoch
Lepton and Nuclear Epoch

Question 18

Stages of Evolutions

3000 K @ 50000 years after (SE: Due to the cooled down temperature, the attachment of electron to nuclei happened (Recombination).
- Creation of the Second Element – Helium

Answer 18

Atomic Epoch

Question 19

Stages of Evolutions

@ 200 million years after (SE: Clusters of atoms were formed and become seedling of galaxies, and it due to the domination of H and He.

Answer 19

Galactic Era

Question 20

Stages of Evolutions

@ 3 billion years (inside the galaxies, stars begun to form

Answer 20

Stellar Epoch

Question 21

3 Stages of Matter Era

Answer 21

Atomic Epoch
Galactic Era
Stellar Epoch

Question 22

Evidence of Bigbang

380, 000 years ago after the big bang. Remnant radiation after the big bang. (1964 by Arno Penzias Robert Woodrow Wilson)

Answer 22

Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB)

Question 23

Evidence of Bigbang

describe how far away distant objects. When an object moves away from us, the light waves are stretched into lower frequency or longer wavelengths. (Edwin Hubble in 1992)

Answer 23

Red shift

Question 24

Evidence of Bigbang

abundance of light elements such as Helium and Hydrogen.

Answer 24

Relative Abundance

Question 25

The most Accepted theory of the universe

Answer 25

Bigbang Theory
