Space inquiry

Research into the most abundant elements in the universe has its roots in astrophysics, dating back to discoveries made in 1925 by Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin. Her work revealed that stars are primarily composed of hydrogen and helium, elements that formed shortly after the Big Bang through the combination of protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Most abundant elements in the universe

When was this discovered?

It was discovered in 1925.

When do you think you'll gain more information?

It is unknown, as dark matter is being researched is hard to study.

What accomplishments do you work for?

It was probably to prove other people wrong

Who does most of the research

In 1925, Cecilia Payne-Gapsochkin discovered Stars were made of Hydrogen and helium

Why is it very light elements?

Since stars live by atom fusion and fission, the hydrogen would be fused into helium and return to hydrogen.

Who might continue this research?

Nasa is probably a possible researcher in the competiton.

How is this research possible?

It probably was astrophysics that lead to this discovery.

Where can I see some proof?

This book is proof:Stellar Atmospheres: A Contribution to the Observational Study of High Temperature in the Reversing Layers of Stars

How might it explain the beginning of the universe?

Since the big bang, there were protons neutrons and electrons, and it formed Hydrogen and helium.

What other elements might there be?

There is this thing called dark matter, and it is what holds galaxies together.
