behind a cat filled homes to head out into the great beyond this week's viewer question comes from zambia. why is it dark in outer space. there are more than one hundred billion stars in our milky way and it's just one of the countless galaxies and the universe sensitive instruments like the hubble space telescope have revealed that there are ten times more galaxies out there than we thought just a few decades ago and these gigantic swarms of stars are distributed quite uniformly throughout space so we should see light shining at us from every direction right. just like we see trees in every direction when standing in the midst of a huge forest but the night sky is mostly dark this apparent contradiction was first described by astronomer hines they should hand around two hundred years ago that's why it's called paradox. today we believe the universe formed fourteen billion years ago in what's called the big bang since then says the theory the universe has been expanding at an ever increasing rate. here on earth we can see just one small sliver of the universe many stars are so far away th
