In line with the specification, the chapter on our universe explores a single model to illustrate the origin of the universe, the big bang theory.
NoS 2 - The aim is for students to be able to recognise questionable hypothesis about the universe and evaluate how scientists used such guesses to identify relationships within the universe around us.
EaS 2 - As well as the objects listed in the specification, dwarf planets can be described.
EaS 3 - Students will compare the different planets with respect to mass, size and number of moons. 
EaS 8 - This LO allows to discuss the future role of and implications of space exploration in society which will include discussing the different celestial bodies.
PW 3 - Students will investigate how several celestial bodies behave in relation to one another in the universe. 
- These outcomes are addressed through discussion of space technologies that are used in everyday situations, the work of the international space station, recent, current and possible future space exploration and ethics of space exploration.
