Future of Space: From Inflationary Universe to Mars Colonies and Beyond
Manage episode 431648961 series 2794714
The Inflationary Universe Theory proposes that the universe underwent an exponential expansion in the first fraction of a second after the Big Bang. This rapid inflation stretched space-time itself, smoothing out any irregularities and setting the stage for the universe as we know it today. This theory was first put forward by physicist Alan Guth in 1980, and it has since become a cornerstone of modern cosmology.
