This story explores theories in Physical Cosmology and how humankind has represented the universe since before the emergence of modern science, as well as alternative theories that were later abandoned: · The Ancient Greek and Medieval Theory of Spheres. · Heliocentric models of the 16th and 17th centuries, such as the one proposed by Copernicus. · The Steady-State Universe Theory of the 19th and 20th centuries. · The Big Bang Theory, which is the standard model describing the history and expansion of the universe. · Alternative hypotheses that were later abandoned, and the reasons why, such as Tired Light or Plasma Cosmology.
