The universe is everything that we can perceive and more. It is all the mass that exists, from the largest galaxies to the tiny subatomic particles, and since mass is exchangeable with energy, it is also all the forces and energies that exist. What’s more, since the human being, like all living things, is a physical part of the universe, it includes the human physical body and strength. The term strength includes all physical energy and metaphysical energies, such as the mental energy, spiritual energy and will power. The metaphysical energies are physical activities of the brain powered by the intake of food and drinks. In order to account for all masses and all energies in the universe T.R.U.TH., in trying to be a complete model of the universe, includes all physical energies as well as all metaphysical energies in the discussions... These pages contain a new model of universe, which is also written and presented in a manner and style completely of its own. The aim of these writings is to present a new but detailed model of universe understandable to most Internet visitors, not just specialized physicists or space scientists, therefore, there will be as little scientific jargons or mathematics as possible, just plain and simple language, and everything discussed here will be based on common science and known facts. So, from this point on, I shall try to revisit and relate from the first principles some of the the topics relevant to cosmology and to this theory. All I hope is to build a full and new theory of universe, which is easily understandable, readable and free of anomalies, preferably even enjoyable to most readers. Because of that and because all these pages were written and added directly onto this website over a long time, everything simply grew on spot without a careful drafting process, I tend to repeat myself quite a bit. So, if you find it too simple or long winded, please bear with me. Thank you!

"Universe" is a word derived from the Old French univers, which in turn comes from the Latin roots unus ("one") and versus (a form of vertere, "to turn"). Based on observations of the observable universe, physicists attempt to describe the whole of space-time, including all matter and energy and events which occur, as a single system corresponding to a mathematical model.
The currently-accepted theory of the universe's formation is the Big Bang model, which describes the expansion of space-time from a gravitational singularity. The universe underwent a rapid period of cosmic inflation that flattened out nearly all initial irregularities. Thereafter the universe expanded and became steadily cooler and less dense. Minor variations in the distribution of mass resulted in fractal segregation into features that are found in the current universe; such as clusters of galaxies..

UNIVerse is an english word for UNI + VERSE.
Now what is UNI ?
UNI examples are :
UNI in University -
Place where all subjects of the Universe are tought
UNI in Unity - Symbolise single force
UNI in Uniform - Symbolise same form or structure or pattern
The meaning of UNI is therefore can be deduced as "similar or same".
The meaning of the word "VERSE" means
words or group of words that describe some event.
There fore the meaning of the word UNIVERSE stands of "same or similar events".
However note that the word "UNIVERSAL SYSTEM" has different meaning is scientific community.
UNIVERSE is an entity which contains all the manifested and un-manifested OBJECTS like Galaxies, Solar System, Earth, Water, Fire etc....
UNIVERSE is ENDLESS that is without any limits.

Ha !!! I think your Caps Lock Key got stuck.
The universe is generally accepted to be everything out there that is not on Earth. That means that the universe contains our Solar System, our Milky Way Galaxy (some 200 Billion Stars and all their planets and moons), all the other galaxies
with all their planets and moons, and all of that very empty space in between all the above.

'Universe' is used in the meaning of 'everything that exists'. If you mean in astronomy, Universe is the infinte space that encompases and extends into the deep sky. There are lots of theories about birth and nature of universe. Search the net with key words 'space universe', 'astronomy universe' to get more details.

The term universe derives from Latin: uni = one, or single, and versus=to turn - literally the ALL TURNED INTO ONE. As such, the universe is the totality of energy and matter whether observable by humans or not.

The universe is how far one can possibly travel in 3-dimensional space. There might be more universes other than our own, but you would not be able to travel to one through ordinary 3D space.

All matter and energy, including the earth, the galaxies, and the contents of intergalactic space, regarded as a whole.
Whole cosmic system of matter and energy of which Earth is a part. Its main constituents are the galaxies, within which are stars and stellar groupings and nebulae (see nebula). Earth's Sun is one star among the billions of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. All atoms, subatomic particles, and everything they compose are also part of the universe. The universe is governed by four fundamental forces: the strong force, the weak force, the electromagnetic force, and gravitation. Numerous theories have been proposed for the origin and structure of the universe
Universe, totality of matter and energy in existence. The study of the origin of the universe, or cosmos, is known as cosmogony, and that of its structure and evolution, cosmology. The age of the universe depends on which theory of cosmology one accepts. According to the big bang theory, favored by most scientists, the universe is between 10 and 20 billion years old. The steady-state theory holds that the universe has been in existence for all time.
Matter and Energy in the Universe :-
The matter in the universe is subject to various forces, but the greatest force on the cosmological scale is gravitation. This force pulls matter together to form stars, which either exist alone or are part of binary star or multiple star systems, or brown dwarfs, which are also known as “failed stars.” Gravitation also acts to group billions of stars into galaxies and to group galaxies into clusters and superclusters. The main source of energy in the universe is the conversion of the matter of the stars into energy through thermonuclear reactions (see nuclear energy). These reactions continue throughout the different stages of stellar evolution (see also stellar populations) until the star has consumed all its available nuclear fuel.
The Size and Shape of the Universe :-
The first systematic theory of the size and shape of the universe that attempted to explain observed data was constructed by Ptolemy in the 2d cent. In this theory the solar system was thought to be the entire universe, with the earth at its center and the distant stars located just beyond the farthest planet. This belief was held until the 16th cent., when Copernicus advanced the idea that the sun, rather than the earth, is at the center of the system and that the stars are at very great distances compared to the planets. During the first part of the 20th cent., astronomers discovered that the sun is only one of billions of stars in the Milky Way galaxy and is located far from the galactic center.
Estimates of the size of the universe have been refined as methods of measuring galactic and extragalactic distances have improved. Close stellar distances were at first found by measuring a star's trigonometric parallax. A more powerful contemporary method is to analyze the light reaching the earth from an object by means of a spectroscope; the distance of a very faint object can be estimated by comparing its apparent brightness to those of similar objects at known distances. Another method depends on the fact that the universe as a whole appears to be expanding, as indicated by red shifts (see Doppler effect) in the spectral lines of distant galaxies. Hubble's law makes it possible to estimate their distances from the speed with which they are rushing away from the earth. At present the universe is believed to be at least 10 billion light-years in diameter. One problem with estimating the size of the universe is that space itself (or more properly, space-time) may be curved, as held by the general theory of relativity. This curvature would affect measurements of distance based on the passage of light through space from objects as far away as 5 billion light-years or more.
