Expanding universe
Expanding universe. Computer artwork of galaxies (blue-yellow) in an expanding universe. A yellow glow (centre) represents the origin of the universe in the Big Bang, the initial expansion of the universe from an infinitely compact state 12-15 billion years ago. Matter formed and, around 100 million years after the Big Bang, condensed into the stars that formed the galaxies. On the largest scale, these galaxies are observed to be moving away from each other, rather than a central point. This is seen as the continuing general expansion of the universe. A common analogy is to imagine the universe and its galaxies as being contained on the surface of an expanding bubble

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Expanding Universe" takes us on a mesmerizing journey through the vastness of space and time. Created using computer artwork, it beautifully illustrates galaxies in various shades of blue and yellow, representing the awe-inspiring expanse of our universe. At the center of this cosmic masterpiece, we are drawn to a brilliant yellow glow symbolizing the origin of everything - the Big Bang. This monumental event marked the beginning of our universe's expansion from an unimaginably compact state around 12-15 billion years ago. As time progressed after the Big Bang, matter began to form and coalesce into stars that eventually gave birth to galaxies like those depicted here. However, what is truly mind-boggling is that these galaxies are not stationary but rather moving away from each other on a grand scale. This ongoing phenomenon signifies the continuous expansion of our universe. To grasp this concept more easily, one can imagine our universe as existing on the surface of an expanding bubble. Just as bubbles grow larger with time, so does our cosmos expand relentlessly. This extraordinary artwork not only showcases humanity's deep fascination with space but also highlights key aspects of astrophysics and cosmology. It serves as a reminder that we are part of something much greater than ourselves – an ever-expanding tapestry woven by light rays stretching across billions upon billions of years.
