Mysteries of the Cosmos

1. Formation of galaxies.


Galaxy

The biggest mystery of this universe is its own formation. In other words, how the galaxies/universe or any of this is formed. Most of the scientists are sure that this whole universe came to the existence due to a big bang but still there are some other facts to deny this theory. So nobody is totally sure about how this universe came to be. Since the mystery about the existence of stars and planets was solved not too long ago, scientists are now looking at a bigger picture i.e, the mystery of the existence of galaxy.

2. White Holes.

Since the theory about the existence of black hole became right, scientists are now looking for the existence of white hole which was also proved by a theory alongside the black hole Theory. Totally opposite to black holes, white hole spits matter and energy instead of sucking it. As no one was able to find a white hole till this day, the existence of white holes is still a mystery.

3. UFOs.

UFO or Unidentified Flying Object are just like its name suggests is an unidentified object. There are many mesteries which revolves around a UFO. There have also been many UFO sightings. Many types of UFO are found till now, some have a cylinder like appearance, some seem to have round shape some are deformed. There are many conspiracies about a UFO, some people believe its a n experiment of the government other view them as an extraterrestrial spacecraft but its mystery is yet unsolved.

4. Multiverse.


Multiverse or multiple universes is also one of the biggest mysteries of the cosmos. We have witnessed many stars, many planets, many solar systems, many galaxies but could there be a possibility about the existence of multiple universes. We haven't witnessed any evidence to support this theory but none has been found to completely deny it. As the size of this cosmos is more than a human can grasp, the idea of witnessing multiverse feels like a fairy tale.

5. Dark Matter.



Existence of "Dark Matter" is certainly a possibility. As we have only discovered only about 4-5 percent of the matter in the universe, a question arises, where or what are the remaining matter? Well scientists believe it's in the form of "Dark matter". As per the scientist, anything and everything which we cannot touch, feel, hear and through which all the radioactive waves gets past is dark matter. As it cannot be witnessed by our current knowledge, it's definitely a big mystery.

Types of black holes.

There are a lot of mysteries which revolves around a black hole. Nobody has ever seen a black hole but we certainly know a thing or two about black holes. So following are the multiple types of Black Hole : - 1. Stellar black hole. Stellar black hole or stellar mass black hole forms when a massive star dies. For a star to form a black hole, it has to be multiple times greater than "our" sun as our sun is way too small to form a black hole when it runs out of fuel. Generally a stellar black hole has about 3 to 10 solar masses. Most of the black holes found till now fall under the category of stellar mass black hole. 2. Supermassive black hole. It is a rarely found black hole mostly located in the centre of the galaxies including our own. As of now, we don't know how a supermassive black hole forms. A supermassive black hole has its mass ranging from millions to billion solar masses. Although we don't know how a supermassive black hole comes into ex...

Gravitational waves in the cosmos.

Gravitational waves, they are nothing but a ripple in the space-time, which propagates as waves outwards from their source at the speed of light. It also transports "gravitational radiation" which is similar to the electromagnetic radiation present in earth. Gravitational waves were first proposed by Henri Poincaré and later predicted by Albert Einstein. So you might be wondering what is this so called "Gravitational waves", they are ripples in space-time. A gravitational waves gets created whenever masses (bodies having mass) accelerates. Any and all body which has mass creates gravitational waves but to detect a gravitational waves, there must be the bodies with huge masses. So what are the changes it makes for us you ask? Well there are two changes :- For humans - For us humans, detection of gravitational waves now allows a better study of black holes. Cosmic change - Gravitational waves on cosmic level creates a huge change. It bends and stretches spa...

Big Bang - The creator of this Universe?

Nowadays almost everyone is familiar with the word "BIG BANG" reason being The Big Bang Theory series, but only few know what big bang actually means. The word Big Bang literally means very big/huge blast which many(including myself) believe to be the cause of the creation of this universe. Basically most of the people supporting the big bang theory believe this whole universe began from a single singularity and our universe came into existence as the singularity expanded. In simple terms, about 14 billion years ago Big Bang happens prior to this all the matters and spacial energy were the part of the singularity(whatever existed before the big bang) although everything we see in this cosmos wasn't in the singularity, big bang certainly became the foundation of the creations we see today. Edwin Hubble was the first to come up with the idea of Big Bang. He observed that the universe is constantly expanding and the velocity of a galaxy is proportional to its dist...
