Pelican nebula - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding Nebulae: From Kant's Proposal to Hubble's Discoveries

In 1755, Kant proposed that nebulae are island universes, sparking a debate on their nature within or outside our galaxy. Shapley and Curtis debated whether spiral nebulae were rotating systems like our Milky Way. Hubble's observations of the Andromeda Nebula led to the realization that it is a gala

The History of the Earth

The Earth, 4.5 billion years old, emerged from a nebula in the Milky Way Galaxy. Gravity led to the condensation of a rotating cloud into the Sun and planets. Over time, lumps collided, forming gas giants, rocky planets, and asteroids. The outer planets attracted hydrogen and helium, while the inner

Geology of the Earth

The evolution of elements in the universe began with the Big Bang, leading to the formation of hydrogen, helium, and heavier elements through stellar processes like fusion and supernovae. Our solar system formed 4.5 billion years ago from a nebula containing a variety of elements. These elements pla
