Study Notes
The Route of the Big Bang
- A cluster of gas in galaxies initiated a process of rotation and accretion.
- This formation led to the creation of stars and their respective systems.
- The primary driving force behind this phenomenon is gravity, often referred to as “the great architect of the universe.”
- Gravitational force plays a crucial role in the formation and evolution of cosmic structures.
- The process highlights the interconnectedness of gas, stars, and galaxies in the universe's development.
