00:00Oh, it all started with the big bang.
00:08It all started with the big bang.
00:12Bang!
00:13What?
00:15Yes, little kitty.
00:17Everything we look around, right from the grain of sand to trees,
00:22to mountains,
00:24earth,
00:26galaxies and the universe,
00:28it was all formed after a big bang.
00:33Still confused friends?
00:35So, in today's episode, let us learn about the beginning of our universe
00:41and shed some light on an interesting question.
00:44That is,
00:45What is the big bang theory?
00:48Zoom in!
00:51The universe,
00:53it has fascinated humanity so much,
00:56that cosmologists have devoted their entire lives gazing into the space
01:03to find the answer to the most important question
01:07about the universe and how it evolved,
01:11its actions in the past, present and future,
01:15and how it came into existence in the first place.
01:20Sorry, I got a bit carried away.
01:24A lot of scientists assume that the universe began nearly 13.7 billion years ago,
01:31with a massive explosion of an extremely hot bubble,
01:35that was thousands of times smaller than a pinhead.
01:40This idea at first was jokingly referred to as the Big Bang.
01:46But as the time progressed and evidence piled up,
01:50the concept and the name stuck with the scientific community.
01:54After the explosion,
01:58the universe that we know today was born.
02:01And with it,
02:03time, space and matter came into existence.
02:07And it all happened in a fraction of a second.
02:10Yes friends,
02:12in just a matter of seconds,
02:15the universe grew from smaller than a single atom,
02:19to bigger than a galaxy.
02:21And it kept on expanding at a phenomenal rate,
02:26and continues to grow even today.
02:29As the universe cooled down,
02:33the energy converted into particles of matter and antimatter.
02:38These two opposite types of particles fought hard,
02:42and largely destroyed each other.
02:44But some brave matter managed to survive.
02:49Please note,
02:50that just one second has gone by so far,
02:53since the beginning of everything.
02:55And the universe had already grown into 100 billion kilometers,
03:01and is cold enough to form more stable particles,
03:04called protons and neutrons.
03:08Over the next three minutes,
03:10the temperature fell below 1 billion degrees Celsius.
03:14Now the universe got more cold,
03:17to allow the protons and neutrons to come together,
03:21and form its first atom,
03:23the hydrogen.
03:26After millions of years,
03:27when the hydrogen gas clumped together,
03:30and gravity started to put it under pressure,
03:33stars and galaxies began to form.
03:37Their radiation began dissolving the stable hydrogen gas,
03:41into plasma,
03:43that allowed visible light to pass.
03:46And finally,
03:47there was light.
03:50Trivia time!
03:51Did you know,
03:53the single super concentrated point or bubble,
03:56which later became the universe,
03:59before the big bang was called the primeval atom,
04:02or the cosmic egg?
04:05Also, in one of the possible scenarios for the ultimate fate of the universe,
04:10known as the big crunch,
04:12the universe will eventually stop expanding,
04:15and start collapsing in on itself.
04:19Then however,
04:20another big bang might happen.
04:22It's question time!
04:25Today's question is,
04:27How many years ago,
04:29did the big bang occur?
