Our Universe
What is Space?
Space is space,
empty space. It is
full of energy and
matter. You can’t
even think what
kind of stuff is in
space. It’s an
ocean of darkness
and vacuum. It is
not what you see
in Star wars or
Star trek, It is
kind of different.
Space is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, big it is. I mean,
you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that's
just peanuts to space. The observable Universe is 27 Billion light-years in
diameter.

What is Universe?
• Universe is
everything that
exists in the world.
• It is something that
made us.
• Universe is the
limit.
It all stared with a explosion of a small bubble which was
smaller than a pinhead known as the Big Bang. The
explosion was so powerful that the stuff that came out of it is
still moving forward making new galaxies and stars. Many
people think that the Big Bang happened about 13 billions
years ago but that’s not true, Big Bang happened more than
8o Billion years ago and our solar System is pretty young.
The picture in the bottom right is pretty Fascinating. Here
you can see the early stages of the forming of the very first
stars of our universe. The space telescope, Planck, has been
observing the oldest light in the world, from just after the
beginning of the Universe! These observations have now
been collected into this map, showing the shape of the
Universe when it was very young. The blue and red
splotches you can see are the ancient ‘seeds’ of today’s
stars and galaxies.!
How are we connected to universe
Every one in this world
came from universe.
If we put it in more
sciencetefic way it means
that the stardust from
space which consisted of
carbon made us and
everything in this world is
about of carbon but that’s
not it. But if you think it
in a common way then
there is a big reason that
the universe is a sea of
energy, deep energy and
a tiny bit of that energy is
given to us too, to our
earth and its all cause
that energy, we survive.
Universe and Time
Time is pretty interesting, cool and sad. In order to
explore space you need time. Let me explain it to
you- When you see stars at night you think that is
the most recent picture of that star but that’s not
true, the stars we look at today looked like that
about 3 to 10 billion years a ago, so this star looked
like this when our solar system was being made with
explosions and reaction and when think about it is
pretty cool and seems astonishing. Scientist used this
information to know what is the current size of the
universe but they are never right, no one can
because universe is full of mysteries and we don’t
know of. What is sad about time is that it never stops
(what we know of) and that’s why things change,
people get old and die and the universe continues to
grow and this is called the arrow of time.
Quasars is a very
energetic and
distant active
galactic nucleus.
Quasars is the
brightest light in
the Universe.
Yuri Gagarin, Neil Armstrong, John Glenn, Buzz
Aldrin, Michael Collins, Alan P. Shepard and many
more. All these great guys changed the way people
thought about space and created a ignition in
everyone’s heart to disclose the outer space, to
know what the reality is just cause of one habit of
humans-Curiosity.
Every human is the same in one
thing for sure, “CURIOSIY”
Our nature of finding the answer
to anything, to ask the solution of
the word “why” got us where we
are now. Isaac Newton asked why
does the apple falls from a tree,
Albert Einstein asked why light
travels in a straight path, Werner
von Braun asked why can’t we go
in space is what made the
difference and the mysterious
universe was introduced to us.
April 12 1961,Yuri Gagarin became the first
person to go to space. May 5 1961, Alan
Shepard became the first American to got to
space. February 20 1962, John Glenn became
the first American to orbit space. June 20
1069, Neil Armstrong became the first person
to walk on moon. All these great men were the
first ones and the best ones.
The Solar System
• 8.5 planets, thousands and
thousands of planetoids and
asteroids, billions of comets and
meteoroids
• Mostly distributed in a disk about the
Sun
• Sun blows a constant wind of
charged gas into interplanetary
space, called the Solar Wind
The Milky Way Galaxy
The Milky Way Galaxy is a giant disk of stars 160,000 light-years across and 1,000
light-years thick.
The Sun is located at the edge of
a spiral arm, 30,000 light-years
from the center
It takes 250 Million years for the
Sun to complete one orbit
You Are Here
There are over 100 Billion stars in
the Milky Way
The Spiral arms are only 5% more
dense than average, and are the
locations of new star formation

Current Space Missions
Currently Expedition 34 and 35 onboard
the ISS. Their commander is Chris
Hadfield who is an Canadian astronaut.
Nasa has recently founded the first dark
matter ever found with the help of AMS a
3.7 billion dollars arm recently attached
to the ISS.
