Cosmic evolution refers to the process of change and development in the universe from its inception to the present day. It encompasses the formation of fundamental structures, including galaxies, stars, and planets, beginning with the Big Bang approximately 13.8 billion years ago. This evolution is driven by physical laws, such as gravity and thermodynamics, which govern the behavior of matter and energy. Throughout cosmic evolution, various stages have occurred, including the formation of hydrogen and helium in the early universe, the birth of stars, and the creation of heavier elements through nuclear fusion. These processes have led to the development of complex systems, including solar systems and potentially habitable planets, shaping the cosmos as we know it today.
