1. How did the universe begin?
By: Isabelle Attar

2. Introduction
To define my question, I am curious how the universe became, well, the universe.
How did it come to be? Did it just appear one day? Was it always here?
Throughout my presentation I will give you different theories that Scientists have. I will also give you my opinion.

3. Some theories
Stephan Hawking’s thoughts on the universe are as follows. He explains that many different cultures and races have unique thoughts on how the universe and mankind begun. He explains that the Boshongo people of central Africa believed there was a great god Bumba who felt sick and vomited up the sun. He than vomited the moon, the stars, some animals and man.

4. Stephan Hawking’s thoughts
Hawking explains that many theories have ideas on how animals, trees and humans are created. He says it is physical surroundings that changed very little in a human lifetime, consequently being thought as a constant background. The landscape had either existed forever or had been created at the same time as humans. He explains that not everyone was happy with the idea of the universe having a beginning.

5. My opinion
I believe that the greatest mysteries are the most interesting to research. It opens peoples imaginations to create theories to follow and live by. I think there must have been so long before our earth was created, or even our milky way. Some explosion impossible to imagine must have created the universe.
