Introduction to Structure of the Universe Section:-
''The Earth is merely one planet of one sun in a corner of one of countless millions of galaxies that spread to the ever-receding boundaries of an expanding universe.
With the aid of telescopes, radio astronomy, artificial satellites and space probes, scientists have learned how galaxies are born from spinning clouds of gas and dust, and how the stars die in monstrous nuclear explosions. They even suspect that the cores left behind by these explosions may be so dense that they collapse in on themselves endlessly, sucking all neighbouring matter into a black hole - perhaps into another universe.''
