Origins of the Universe
How old is the universe? How was it created? How has it evolved over time? These are only a few questions about the origins of the universe that have baffled many scientists since the dawn of curiosity.
Age of the Universe
Recently, the Hubble Space Telescope was used to measure the distance to a galaxy named "M100". Based on this distance (56 million light-years), the age of the universe is apparently 8 to 12 billion years. Yet there are stars right here in our own galaxy that are believed to be older than that! How can the universe be younger than stars contained in it?
How Big Is The Universe
The Universe is an enormous almost unfathomable size.
The Plasma Universe
More than 99 percent of matter in the Universe exists in the plasma state though nature rarely produces plasma on Earth's surface. Earth's electrically neutral environment is a rare exception.

How old is the universe? How did it begin? How has it evolved over time? Although no one knows all the answers to these questions, astronomers and physicists are discovering pieces of the puzzle every day.
