Astronomy - The Big Bang

Explore a comprehensive 30-part video series on the Big Bang theory and the evolution of the universe. Delve into topics such as Hubble's Law, cosmic background radiation, Einstein's cosmological constant, and the various eras of the early universe. Learn about key concepts like nucleosynthesis, matter-antimatter asymmetry, and the formation of stars and galaxies. Examine evidence supporting the Big Bang theory, investigate the curvature of the universe, and gain insights into the role of entropy in cosmic evolution. This in-depth exploration covers the timeline of the universe from the Planck era to the present day, offering a thorough understanding of modern cosmology.
