The Basics About Space

                      

                                                        The Basics About Space

      Space is a place in the universe where stars, planets, meteors, asteroids, black holes, and many more extraterrestrial things float non-stop due to zero gravity. Since there is no air in space, no known living organisms live in it. Also, there is no way to communicate with each other since sound cannot be carried through space. In our solar system, the Milky Way Galaxy, we have one star called the sun and 8 planets that orbit the yellow star due to its gravitational pull. Our solar system is just a tiny part of space. There are billions and trillions more galaxies out there that scientists haven't discovered, yet. There are spiral ones, circular ones, just plain irregular shaped ones, and many more kinds of galaxy shapes. 

    The theory of Big Bang is about how our whole universe was created. Big Bang states that the whole universe started at one point and then expanded. Scientists calculated that the universe started about 13.8 billion years ago. Astronomers, today, are still trying to find the answers to the thousands if not millions of questions that had not been answered yet. But through time and as knowledge grows through the generations, questions might be answered. Scientists might figure out a way for humans to live in Mars. We might even see aliens coming to our planet and try to take over it. (JK) But as far as I'm concerned, we all just need to be patient and let time be the tunnel to victory.
