Alice's Amazing MOTU Project

As we all know, our current model of the universe was not the first one ever thought of as true. From the dawn of time, man has wondered about the stars and space around him, and has proposed different theories about that space. For the purposes of IB Physics II, this page will explore the different models of the universe. Enjoy! You might even learn something!
