PART 1
A. Do you think the universe has a beginning or has it always existed?
-I think the universe has a beginning, because most astronomers and experts use the Big Bang
Theory as a basis to explain how the universe began.

I chose the image of the Big Bang because, scientifically, it is the representation of how the
universe originated, and out of all the theories that I know, it is the only theory that I
personally believe.

B. Why are other planets incapable to support life? Kindly cite specific
examples/characteristics.
-There are many reasons why other planets are not habitable. They lack the factors to
support and sustain life, such as water, energy, atmosphere, and nutrients.
I chose this image because it depicts the elements that makes Earth a habitable planet,
without them, life on Earth would be impossible.

C. Why is studying the interactions of the Earth’s four subsystem important to understand?
-The first reason why we need to study the earth’s subsystem is to cure ignorance, and
second is to know how we are able to live and settle on this planet.

The image that I have chosen is a man studying the earth. Every person must know about the
place that they are living in so they can improve it more, help it, and make it a better place.
D. What are the things you are looking forward to be discovered in our universe?
-I’m so fascinated and curious about discovering life on other planets and I’m interested in
how their lives work and what things that they have that we can’t comprehend. I just want to
discover something new and strange.

I chose the image of a rocket leaving planet Earth because of the fact that it is the best way to
discover things that are in space. Being an astronaut is one of my dreams, since I’m so
obsessed with astronomy, but the qualifications are too high for me, so I decided to just let
go of it.
