How Big Is the Universe? A Tour of Our Cosmic Address
So... how big is the universe? It's big... really big... no, bigger than that... it's big. In this episode of Crash Course Kids, Sabrina gives us some perspective on this whole universe thing and how we fit into it. This first series is based on 5th-grade science. We're super excited and hope you enjoy Crash Course Kids! ///Standards Used in This Video/// 5-ESS2-1.
