The step of the Big Bang Theory when all of the energy of the universe is contained in one small, hot, dense point.

Step #4 of the Big Bang Theory

The step of the Big Bang Theory when gravity of more massive objects begin pulling smaller objects forming galaxies.

Step #3 of the Big Bang Theory

The step of the Big Bang Theory when particles of matter begin to cool and clump together due to gravity, creating stars and planets.

Big Bang Theory

The theory that the universe originated in a huge explosion that released all matter and energy.

How did Galaxies form?

Throughout the life of the Universe, huge pockets of gas have been pulled together by gravitational forces to form stars. In turn, these stars have been drawn together by GRAVITY to form families of billions of stars, called galaxies.
