Cards (5)

    • First proposed by Alexander Friedmann - Russian Mathematician (1922).
    • Expanded on by George-Henri Lemaitre - Catholic Priest (1927)
    • Developed by professor Stephen Hawking
    • Universe came into existence about 15B years ago
    • Matter became so dense + hot it couldn't keep together, so it caused a "Big bang" (time + space = created)
    • Scientists conclude universe has NO creator, things must've happened by themselves
    • Temperatures cooled forming elements + islands of more solid matter, combining to form galaxies containing many stars
