AMNH trip

http://adler-planetarium-chicago.visit-chicago-illinois.com/sky-pavilion-adler.jpgat the astronomy trip we went into the rose center where my class saw models of the universe and planets. some students learned about their body. i also saw a movie about the big bang and how the universe was after this event. i also learned about the sun to.at the hall of metorites i learned about 3 significant meteors; ahgnitio, the woman and the dog. they were all located on greenland where they were soon discovered.i also saw a movie where i learned about the sun and stars.

1 thing i learned about the trip is that after the Big Bang ocurred for seconds the universe was nothing but space and darkness. another thing is i learned about nebulas,their names and how and why they were created. one more thing i learned is i learned how comets where created. they are made of rock, ice, and dust.

there are still 2 questions that haven't been answered yet. why was the universe created? and why haven't ancient discoveres discover uranus, neptune and pluto?
