Description:
MPEG This animation shows the expansion history of the Universe by modeling the Universe as a two-dimensional grid of galaxies. The Big Bang, shown as a flash of light, is immediately followed by rapid expansion of the Universe. This expansion then slows down because of the gravitational attraction of the matter in the Universe. As the Universe expands, the repulsive effects of dark energy become important, causing the expansion to accelerate. For clarity, the size of the deceleration and acceleration has been exaggerated. [Run Time: 0:10] Description MPEG This animation shows the expansion history of the Universe by modeling the Universe as a two-dimensional grid of galaxies.
