The creation of the universe:

At the initial stage of explosion, matter can only exist in the form of elementary particles such as neutrons, protons, electrons, photons and neutrinos. The continuous expansion after the explosion of the universe caused the temperature and density to drop rapidly.

With the decrease and cooling of temperature, atoms, nuclei and molecules are gradually formed and combined into common gases. Gas gradually condensed into nebulae, which further formed various stars and galaxies, and finally formed the universe we see today.
