Our Universe in Time
(intro survey)
![Page 2: Our Universe in Time (intro survey). Everything's moving! From studying these motions “we” find …. Our universe is expanding – and hence has a history](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649f565503460f94c7a327/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Everything's moving!
From studying these motions “we” find ….
• Our universe is expanding – and hence has a history
• We don’t know what most of the matter in it is!

How are we moving through space?

This illustration shows a stage in the predicted merger between our Milky Way galaxy and the neighboring Andromeda galaxy, as it will unfold over the next several billion years. In this image, representing Earth's night sky in 3.75 billion years, Andromeda (left) fills the field of view and begins to distort the Milky Way with tidal pull. (Credit: NASA; ESA; Z.

Is it just US?Is it something we said?
The Basic assumptions of cosmology:• Universe is isotropic
• Universe is homogenous

In a length of the universe 3.3 Mly long, 70 km of ‘new space’ is
added each second.

Tricky: Universe hasn’t always
expanded at the same rate
