Solution

The Big Bang Theory is the prevalent scientific view that the universe originated from a massive explosion of tightly condensed matter billions of years ago. This theory describes a singular huge explosion, unimaginably large in physical terms, which caused the universe to expand. As the universe expanded, its temperature dropped. This cooling allowed hydrogen and helium to form. These gases later condensed under gravitational forces to form galaxies, which contain stars and clouds of gas and dust.
