ORIGIN OF UNIVERSE & SOLAR SYSTEM
entire cosmic system that includes Earth and all celestial bodies.
Universe
These are symbolic narratives explaining the universe's origin according to different cultures or religions.
Creation Myths
The Big Bang theory is the most accepted explanation for the universe's formation.
Scientific Theories
Proposed by Alexander Friedman, it describes a great expansion from a point of nothingness.
Big Bang Theory
Suggests the Big Bang could be the end of a previous universe, leading to a cycle of destruction and creation.
Cyclic Universe
Explains an exponential expansion phase before the Big Bang, addressing some limitations of the Big Bang theory.
Inflation Theory
Proposes that fundamental particles are one-dimensional strings, which may unite quantum mechanics and relativity.
String theory
Understanding the universe requires recognizing it as a complex interaction of matter and energy, from atoms to galaxies.
Cosmic System
Creation myths reflect cultural beliefs and philosophical questions about existence and the origins of the universe.
Cultural Perspectives
The Big Bang theory reshapes our understanding of cosmic history, emphasizing expansion rather than mere explosion.
Scientific Inquiry
The idea of a cyclic universe challenges linear perceptions of time and existence, inviting deeper philosophical contemplation.
Cyclic Nature
addresses Big Bang limitations, offering insights into the uniformity and geometry of the universe.
Inflation's role
shifts paradigms in physics, suggesting a deeper unification of forces and particles beyond traditional views.
Strings as fundamentals
The interplay between philosophy, culture, and science enriches our understanding of the universe, encouraging holistic inquiry.

Edwin Hubble (1929)
Ancient Egyptians worshipped the sun, showcasing early human connection to celestial bodies.
Sun worship
Ancient Egyptians worshipped the sun, showcasing early human connection to celestial bodies.
Cartesian Vortex Theory
Suggests planets formed from materials ejected by the sun during stellar encounters.
Jeffrey's Tidal Theory
A great cloud of gas and dust formed the solar system through gravitational pull.
Gravitational Collapse
The shift from geocentric to heliocentric views revolutionized our understanding of the universe.
Heliocentric Model
The Big Bang theory serves as a foundational concept in understanding the universe's evolution, influencing various scientific fields.
Bigbang significance
The worship of the sun in ancient Egypt illustrates humanity's longstanding fascination with celestial phenomena and their impact on culture.
Cultural Astronomy
The solar system contains a variety of planets, each with unique characteristics, emphasizing the complexity of cosmic formations.
Planetary Diversity
René Descartes’ vortex theory integrates philosophy and science, marking a significant step in understanding celestial mechanics and motion.
Descartes' Contribution
Jeffrey's Tidal Theory illustrates the dynamic interactions between celestial bodies, reshaping our comprehension of planetary origins.
Planetary Formation Theories
The role of gravity in shaping the solar system highlights its fundamental importance in astrophysics and planetary science.
Gravitational Dynamics
The transition from a geocentric to a heliocentric model was revolutionary, changing humanity's view of its place in the universe.
