In this video, we tackle mind-blowing scientific questions about the mysteries of the universe.

*What Was There Before The Beginning Of The Universe?*
Delving into cosmology, this question challenges our understanding of what existed before the universe's inception.

*How Does the Universe Create Something From Nothing?*
This fundamental inquiry probes the role of quantum fluctuations in the universe's genesis from apparent nothingness.

*If the Universe Formed from Nothing, Who Created the Nothing?*
Bridging science and spirituality, this debate questions the origins of the void predating the universe.

*Why Can’t We See 95% of the Universe?*
This topic illuminates the elusive nature of dark matter and dark energy, which make up the vast majority of our universe.

*How Many Galaxies Are In the Universe?*
A journey into the cosmos, this question explores the vastness of space and the billions of galaxies it contains.

*If The Universe Is Expanding, Where Is The Centre?*
Challenging conventional understanding, this inquiry disputes the notion of a central point in the ever-expanding universe.

*What Shape Is The Universe?*
Delving into cosmic curvature and topology, this topic seeks to define the universe's spatial configuration.

*How Do We Know the Age of the Universe?*
Utilizing the Hubble constant, this question examines the methods used to estimate the universe's age at roughly 13.8 billion years.

*Is The Entire Universe the Same Age?*
Merging astrophysics and cosmology, this query probes the diverse ages of celestial entities within the vast universe.

*Is Time Travel Possible In Our Universe?*
Blending science fiction and theoretical physics, this topic investigates the possibilities and paradoxes of time travel.
