Signs of the Quran - Astronomy

Scientists agree that shortly after the Big Bang small particles or smoke (nebula) filled up the existing space, as this has been discovered in distant interstellar space.

Most of the universe is vacuum and its main elements are atoms of Helium and Hydrogen, which build up to 98% of the matter in the universe until today. Out of this substance the supernovae came together. These are gigantic young stars that can measure light years across they build up the distant heavens.

The older they get, the more they come together and the smaller and denser they become. Planets likewise come together out of these nublae, as shown in the picture above. Our planet Earth came together like this inside planetary nebulae.
