Session 16 (session 18) The Big Bang and Cosmic Microwave Radiation
Ch. 26 Section 3
If nothing falls into the black hole
Will not turn into a quasar
Will not grow anymore
NOTHING comes out of the black hole, more like things come out of accretion disk
Natural sciences- based on & proven w. experiments that can be performed over & over again w the
same result
Astronomers cannot actually produce BH in labs
Depend on statistics (looking @ many objects) or simulate through computer
Stars present a lot of answers for astronomers
Understand them the most
Guide our answers to universe
The Big Bang
13.7 billion yrs ago
NOT an explosion
Everything from nothingness-> SUDDENLY appearing
Oldest stars in globular clusters- universe must be as close to this age
“Moons” of the galaxy
Was there a universe before ours?- before existence
Time & space did not exist as we conceive them know before Big Bang
No answers
The Observable Universe
What can we see + what is size of Universe
FINITE number of matter in your universe
Matter can condense (in a BH)- still exists
Finite stars & no. of galaxies in an INFINITE universe
**Only things that emit light 13 billion years ago are in the OBSERVABLE UNIVERSE

Document Summary

Session 16 (session 18) the big bang and cosmic microwave radiation. Nothing comes out of the black hole, more like things come out of accretion disk. Natural sciences- based on & proven w. experiments that can be performed over & over again w the same result. Astronomers cannot actually produce bh in labs. Depend on statistics (looking @ many objects) or simulate through computer. Stars present a lot of answers for astronomers. Oldest stars in globular clusters- universe must be as close to this age. Was there a universe before ours?- before existence. Time & space did not exist as we conceive them know before big bang. What can we see + what is size of universe. Finite number of matter in your universe. Matter can condense (in a bh)- still exists. Finite stars & no. of galaxies in an infinite universe. **only things that emit light 13 billion years ago are in the observable universe.
