Unraveling the Mysteries of the Observable Universe

The observable universe is the part of the universe that we can see from Earth. It includes all the light that has reached us since the Big Bang, allowing us to observe distant galaxies, stars, and cosmic phenomena. However, it's limited by the finite speed of light and the age of the universe, estimated to be about 13.8 billion years. Beyond the observable universe lies regions we cannot see because light from those areas hasn't had enough time to reach us yet.
