Discussion
THEORIES EXPLAINING THE ORIGIN OF THE UNIVERSE.

Universe is an all space-time, matter and energy including the solar system,
all stars and galaxies and content of intergalactic space, regarded as a whole.
There are three various theories explaining the origin of the universe.
1. Steady State Theory. It states that the counting of the galaxies in our
universe is constant and new galaxies which are forming continuously are
filling the empty spaces which are created by those heavenly bodies
which have crossed the boundary lines of observable universe. This
theory proposes that the overall structure of the universe is always the
same at any point in time and space. This structure is maintained even
when certain events, such as birth of new stars, occur. It is balanced by
the death of old stars.
2. Pulsating Theory. In this theory, it is assumed that there is continuous
expansion and contraction in universe. It proposes that the universe will
keep expanding more and more then slowly it stop. Then it will start co
contract due to gravitation. This contraction will continue until the
universe become more compact and will later explode and expand again.
3. Big Bang Theory. It proposes that the entire universe was once
condensed in a very small and compact particle called primeval nucleus.
It is estimated that about 20 billion years ago, primeval nucleus suddenly
exploded in a big bang. The force of this explosion caused matter to
scatter in any direction forming a universe.
Biblical Belief on the Formation or Creation of the Universe.

 “Genesis 1:1 – In the beginning God Created the heavens and
earth”.
 The very first claim made in the bible is that there was a beginning.
Since Genesis 1 describe how God created the universe, and in a
certain sequence, there is no doubt that he did that exactly. God
created the universe.

(Provide a preview of the universe and solar system)
Solar System
Just a part of the vast universe is our solar system. It is located somewhere in
the Milky Galaxy. It consists of the sun being at the center, minor and major
planets and other celestial bodies like satellites, comets, asteroids and
meteoroids.
ORIGIN OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM

There are major theories that explain the origin of the solar system.
1. Nebular Hypothesis Theory. According to this theory, the sun and
other celestial bodies orbiting around it where formed from a nebula
(A spinning cloud of gases). These clouds are gravitationally unstable,
and matter coalesces within them smaller denser clumps, which when
rotate, collapse, and form stars.
2. Accretion Theory. Accretion is the gradual increase in the size of an
object by the build-up of the matter due to gravity. The accretion
theory says that a protosun passing through a cloud of interstellar
materials pulled this material along causing it to swirl around the
protosun. As the protosun evolved into the sun, the material it accreted
gradually formed the planets and other revolving bodies.
3. Tidal theory. According to this theory, the time when the sun about to
form (protosun), a large body passing around it may have drawn some
gaseous material from it. The mass of gaseous materials drawn did not
completely escape gravitational pull of the protosun. It continued to
spin around it, eventually becoming more dense and gradually formed
into planetesimals. These planetisimals give rise to the planets and
their satellites.
DISCUSS WHY THE EARTH IS UNIQUE

Provide a video discussion about why the earth is a unique planet among the
other planet in the solar system. - Students watch video from National
Geography channel in youtube.
Summary
 Give a brief summary of the concept of the topic.
V. Assessment Homework: Research on the current information about space exploration Students research the internet and in the library
about the assignment.
