    Cosmology: The

    Study of the
    Universe
    Cosmology is the study of the universe as a whole. It explores the origins,
    evolution, structure, and composition of the cosmos. From the Big Bang to the
    vast expanses of space, cosmology seeks to unravel the mysteries of our
    universe.

    The Big Bang Theory

    1 The Big Bang


    The Big Bang theory proposes that the universe began from a
    singularity, a point of infinite density and temperature, about
    13.8 billion years ago.

    2 Expansion
    The universe has been expanding ever since, with galaxies
    moving apart from each other.

    3 Cooling and Formation


    As the universe expanded, it cooled and formed the first
    atoms, stars, and galaxies.

    The light from distant galaxies Hubble's Law states that the

    that they are moving away us.
    from us.

    3 Accelerating Expansion
    Observations indicate that the expansion of the universe is
    accelerating, driven by a mysterious force called dark energy.

    By studying the CMB, scientists can gain insights into the conditions of
