Around fourteen billion years ago, something amazing happened to all the compressed stuff that existed before the universe. Kaboom! This amazing thing that happened is believed to be the “Big Bang”—the birth of the universe. It was hot, and it was sudden, and it was powerful. Tiny new particles formed and began crashing into each other, creating energy and eventually joining to form larger bits of matter. The universe kept expanding and cooling down. Substances kept crashing into each other, and brand new bits of matter were formed. Eventually new gases formed. As these gases began to cool, they collapsed because of gravity, and formed the first stars. The universe kept expanding and stretching, and more and more stars were born. Then galaxies formed. About nine billion years after the Big Bang, our sun and solar system were born when gases collapsed in on themselves and formed our sun.
