THE EXPANSION OF THE UNIVERSE
This widely accepted theory is particularly evidenced by the Expansion of the Universe. This hypothesis states that, since the emergence of the big bang, the matter which was spread as a consequence of the explosion, is continuously moving backwards, caused by the big force produced by this explosion. An example could be the red-shift of light, which is the finding of cosmic background radiation that is left over from the galaxies that are moving away from Earth faster as the further they are. -

THE BIG-BANG: 13,8 BILLIONS YEARS AGO.
A sudden and instantaneous expansion of space from an exploding point of dense energy known as the Big Bang. Science claims that this explosion was the main process by which the universe was created. It is responsible for the creation of planets, stars, asteroids, and the entirety of their contents, adding both living and non-living matter. In summary, it is credited for the creation of everything visible in the universe, such as the solar system or our own planet, where we are living nowadays. -
