The origin of the universe
Astrologers do mainly researches in cosmology in order to find
out how the galaxies are related to each other, how to measure
distances, whether the universe expands constantly...

The Big Bang
Most of the scientists suppose that our universe had its origin
in the Big Bang. However, this theory has not yet been proven entirely.
The cause of the Big Bang is unknown, too. There are measurements,
which prove that the galaxies are moving away at high speeds. This
could mean that all galaxies were contained at one point 15 billion
years ago. Thus, the gases, stars, moons, the whole matter existing
in the universe, were united in a tiny energy bundle.
The matter
According to Albert Einstein's famous formula: E = mc2, energy (E)
can become mass (m). This as well as the velocity of light (c =
300,000 km/s) played an influent role at the origin of the universe.
Indeed after the Big Bang, tiny elementary particles and antiparticles
were quickly generated from an incredibly hot energy cloud (1 billion
Kelvin). They were the building blocks of matter. After 100 seconds
atomic nuclei were already formed and 150 minutes later the first
atoms. One assumes that the molecules appeared only one billion
years after the Big Bang. They formed a sort of gas and dust fog.
The origin of the suns
Hydrogen nuclei assembled. This mass contracted because of the pHydrogen
nuclei assembled. This mass contracted because of the power of attraction
and grew very hot. The high temperatures let the hydrogen melt with
helium (= fusion). Through this reaction the body continued to grow
hot. The attraction compensated the radiation, so that a star could
hold together. Billions of these suns gathered together and thus
formed galaxies.
The origin of planets
One presumes that gas and dust nebulas accumulated around a sun.
Through the balance of attraction and centrifugal forces (those
prevent the fog clouds from striking the sun), the gas and dust
fog came together and formed clouds. In these clouds appeared the
meteorites, huge lumps. The various meteorits collided and this
resulted in enormous explosions and a glowing heat that made the
meteorites fuse together. The cloud shrinked because of the force
of gravity, but it kept the same mass. This body, a planet core,
attracted again meteorits and matter. However, the cores
could
also hit one another. Then they merged or flew to pieces. Those
pieces could again attract matter. When the glowing celestial body
cooled down, they constituted a planet.

The origin of a solar system
A further assumption is based on the conception that the planets
stopped colliding when they revolved around the sun. This is how
a solar system emerged. (These systems are frequent in the universe).
The origin of the living space
The fusion of these planets lasted approximately 1 billion years.
The core, coat and the crust emerged only after a long time from
this 'liquid' state. This resulted from the migration of heavy matter
like iron, nickel,... inside the planet. At that time, the atmosphere
still contained no oxygen, only poisonous gases, and there were
strong ultra-rays. When the crust's temperature fell below 100°
C, the water vapour could condense, and water appeared on the planet's
surface. Yet, the surface area altered constantly so that the first
forms of life had their origin in the water. These very primitive
forms of life were limited to microbes, which produced oxygen by
photosynthesis. The oxygen entered the atmosphere, where ozone gradually
developed. The ozone layer held back a large part of the radiation
from the universe, and life could develop further.
The plasma
More than 99% of the celestial bodies consist of plasma, an electrically
conducting gas consisting of a high density of electrons and ions.
Even a planet with an electrically neutral surrounding area has
a very leaky ion sphere above the atmosphere.
The universe, allegedly a tiny energy bundle at the beginning, consists
of the same matter, obeying the same laws. Thus the universe is
isotropic and homogeneous (in all respects equally). For this reason
one can presume that a different form of life in the universe must
have large similarities with us.
