Short Questions
The Universe is very vast and there is a distance of millions of miles among the stars. That is why, a star seldom finds another star near it.
According to Sir James Jeans, some two thousand million years ago, a star happened to come near the sun and raised huge tides on the surface of the sun. As a result, a high mountain of waves was formed there.
When the wandering star came nearer and nearer, the mountain of waves rose higher and higher.
Planets are heavenly bodies revolving round the sun in fixed orbits. Once a star came near the sun when that star began to move away, the mountain of waves was torn into pieces. These pieces fell off into space. They are planets and our earth in one of them.
The stars lack all the physical conditions which are necessary for the existance of life. i.e. air, water, soil etc. Moreover, the stars are extremely hot. That is why, there is no life on them.
In the beginning, the pieces of sun where very hot. Gradually, they became cooler. In course of time, one of these cooling pieces gave birth to life. It started in sample organisms. They were able to reproduce themselves before dying. After a long time, human beings came into existance.
The Universe is frightening because of immence stretches of time, great distances and absence of life on other planets and our loneliness.
Life can exist only in some suitable physical conditions like reasonable temperature, air and water. Such conditions do not exist on other heavenly bodies except the earth. Therefore, there is no life on other heavenly bodies.
