🌌 Edwin Hubble's Discovery of the Expanding Universe and Georges Lemaître's Big Bang Suggestion
Edwin Hubble discovered that the universe is expanding and that the farther away a galaxy is, the faster it is moving away from us. Two years later, Georges Lemaître suggests that the expansion can be traced to an initial "Big Bang".⟶
