Read the selection carefully.
Then answer the questions that follow.
Astronomers who believe that the universe was once a vast tight mass of
hydrogen claim that all substances in the universe were created during the
first half hour after the heated mass of hydrogen exploded, forming our present
universe. Scientist have studied that ashes where an atom bomb or hydrogen bomb
has been exploded. They have seen what happens when substances are heated to a
high temperature in laboratories. From these studies they now know how great
explosion of the universe could turn hydrogen into helium, iron, uranium, and
all other substances found on earth and in the stars. The explosion theory is
supported by the fact that substances which the process indicates should be
common are very common and those it indicates should be scarce are scarce.
It is known that after million and millions of years uranium changes
into lead. B7 studying how much uranium has changed into lead, it is possible
to calculate how long ago the uranium was created. The time thus calculated is
about 5,500,000,000 years
Since astronomers conclude from the speed of movement of the stars that
they were exploded from some central point about 5,500,000,000 years ago and
since uranium was created about that time, it appears hat the explosion theory
of how the universe was made maybe the correct one.
