Best Answer

According to modern science, the universe was created in a burst of energy 13.7 billion years ago that expanded space, began time, and eventually evolved into matter which then eventually became life and intelligence. So it was energy that created the universe since it can never be created or destroyed. We commonly know this as the Big Bang.

How does science define the word 'universe'?

The universe, as recognized by modern science, is the aggregate of observable, measurable reality defined as the whole region of space within which light has had time to traverse since the big bang. It consists of a four-dimensional space-time continuum containing all matter, energy, and forces. The universe is mostly a vacuum or empty space.


What is the universe according to modern science?

The universe is all physical reality as a single comprehensive system. The universe has four basic parts. Space is the three-dimensional fabric in which objects and states of matter coexist and what gives objects extension. Time is the continuous succession of events or states of matter and also the measure of duration of events. Put simply, space and time set the stage for the actors, matter and energy. Matter is the basic substance of physical objects which occupies space, evolves in time, persists in its state of rest or continuous uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force, and is convertible to energy. To put it simply, matter is basically stored energy in the form of atoms which consist of particles and exists in four basic states as a solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Energy is what makes matter move or undergo change. Two basic forms of energy are potential energy and kinetic energy. Energy can never be created or destroyed. According to modern science, energy created the universe 13.7 billion years ago in what we commonly know as the Big Bang.

What model of universe creation is supported by the red shift?

All modern models based on science that are worth their salt would be. The only major theory I know about the origin of the universe is the Big Bang Theory, which is supported by Red Shift observations. Galaxies we can observe are all moving away (we know this due to Red Shift) from a central point, believed to be the epicenter of the Big Bang.

What caused the creation of the universe?

According to modern science, energy created the universe in the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago since energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy existed before matter, space, and time. Energy is also causing the expansion and acceleration of the universe. We can say with certainty that energy is eternal and existed even before the universe and will outlast the universe.
