The universe never failed to amuse us with its tales and facts.
First, let us talk about the universe. What is Universe? It is the term used to identify the collection of everything which exists in space. Here, everything includes stars, galaxies, black holes, planets, comets, and other amazing things. According to the research study, there are approximately 100 billion galaxies in the universe. However, the numbers may increase as the telescopic technology in space is improvising with time.
With all the elements present- the universe is a wonderland for curious minds. It leaves us fascinated and awestricken. In this article, we will learn about the five amazing facts about the universe.
Despite there are billions of elements present there in space, it happens to be silent
According to the research studies, there is no atmosphere in space. Hence, it doesn’t provide any medium for sound waves to travel through space. However, radio waves can be transmitted and used for communication in space.
Did you know there is a chance that more than one universe exists?
The concept of a multiverse existed even before the MCU creators mentioned it in their movies. It came from the theory of eternal inflation that the universe (we live in) is one of many. According to the theory, space-time expanded at different rates and places after the Big Bang. Hence, it gave rise to multiple universes which function by their own laws of physics.
Once you get your footprints on the moon, they will stay there for 100 million years (approximately)
As we already know, there is no atmosphere on the moon- there is no wind to wipe off the footprint; neither does it has waster to wipe them off. So, yes! You assumed it right. The moon still has the footprints of the Apollo astronauts and will stay there for millions of years.
There is a high possibility that the universe (that we live in) is flat
According to the study reports, its shape depends on the struggle between the gravitational pull and the expansion rate. Therefore, when the density exceeds its critical value, the universe takes the sphere shape; otherwise, it looks like a saddle. However, when the density value equals the critical density- the universe remains flat.
According to the astronomers, there is floating water in space
They have spotted a massive cloud of water vapour that holds approximately 140 trillion times Earth’s Ocean water mass.
