Why is the Earth Round and the Milky Way Flat?

The video explores why the universe predominantly forms spheres and disks, focusing on the roles of equilibrium, symmetry, and gravity. It explains how these forces shape planets, stars, and galaxies, emphasizing the balance between pressure and gravitational forces. The video also discusses the impact of rotation and centrifugal forces on celestial bodies, leading to the formation of disks in space. Key concepts include the laws of physics governing these shapes and the fundamental symmetries that influence the universe's structure.

How does the rotation of a planet affect its shape?

How do the concepts of pressure and gravity lead to the formation of different structures in the universe?

What is the difference between the formation of spheres and disks in the universe?

Discuss the significance of the laws of conservation of energy in relation to the shapes of celestial bodies.
