Do We Expand With the Universe?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

The cat's out of the bag (or off the leash, in this case) regarding the expansion of the universe. In this intriguing episode, the narrator explains that space is expanding, not the objects within it. He also tells how expansion overcomes the gravitational pull between objects. Short, but sweet, the topic is an exciting addition to your space science or physics lectures.
