The Big Bang
Over 13.7 billion years ago, a tiny tiny object, the size of a pinhead exploded with all the mass being cramped into it. This started to build up rapidly and creating a hot explosion. Evidence providing the truth of the big bang are: All the galaxies are moving away from us and the further a galaxy is, the faster it is moving away from us. -

Stars Light Up
200 million years after the Big Bang, hydrogen atoms floated freely around the Universe. These atoms were slightly more packed together in some places than in others. In the more crowded areas, the hydrogen atoms were close enough to each other to let gravity do its work. In these little pockets of hydrogen, stars lit up across our Universe.
