Content Universe definition Components Summary

WHAT IS THE UNIVERSE? This huge vast empty space consists of planets, stars, galaxies. GalaxiesStarsPlanets

WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF THE UNIVERSE? Location: Milky Way galaxy Star name: Sun Star type: G-type (yellow dwarf) SOLAR SYSTEM - A group of planets or celestial bodies that revolve around a star

STAR S Location: Milky Way (also found in Canis Major constillation) Name: VY Canis Majoris Star type: Red hypergiant Location: Milky Way (also found in constellation Scorpius) Name: Antares Star type: Red hypergiant

GALAXIES A system of millions and billions of stars, together with gas and dust, held together by gravitational attraction Name: IC 1101 One of the largest galaxies discovered that is 6,000,000 light years in diameter

GALAXY CLUSTERS Galaxies formed together by mutual pull of gravity

In Summary The Universe is: - a vast space and is forever expanding - it is 13.7 billion years old - continuously adds new stars and galaxies - it is made of trillions of galaxies which contain billions and trillions of stars depending on its size -
