During this experiment we had to draw dots onto a balloon. The dots that we drew represent all of the galaxies, and the balloon represents the universe. When we blew air into the balloon it represented the expansion of the universe. All of the dots (galaxies) moved further away from each other the more we expanded it. The letters D and E moved 4 cm each away from M when it was barely inflated. The trend of the movement of galaxies was that everytime we inflated the balloon a little bit more, the dots would move further away from each other. Some more then others, but every time each one would move. This experiment is a great model of what is happening currently in our universe because our universe is expanding. All of the different galaxies are moving further and further away from each other. The balloon is a great representation of the universe but there are some things that make them different from one and other. The fact that if we continued to blow up the balloon it would explode, which most likely would not happen to the universe, I hope. A balloon can sometimes inflate in one area more then the other so that could have impacted the results because the universe expands evenly. This is not scientifically proven, but the shape of the universe is probably not a circle, unlike the balloon.
