The Pre-Columbian era incorporates all period subdivisions in the history and prehistory of the Americas before the appearance of significant European influences on the American continent, spanning the time of the original settlement in the Upper Paleolithic period to European colonization during the Early Modern period.
While the phrase "pre-Columbian era" literally refers only to the time preceding Christopher Columbus's voyages of 1492, in practice the phrase is usually used to denote the entire history of indigenous Americas cultures until those cultures were exterminated, diminished, or extensively altered by Europeans, even if this happened decades or centuries after Columbus's first landing. For this reason the alternative terms of Precontact Americas, Pre-Colonial Americas or Prehistoric Americas are also in use. In areas of Latin America the term usually used is Pre-Hispanic.

❄<u>Edwin Hubble made many important contributions to astronomy. Up until his observations in 1922, scientists were of the opinion that the universe consisted of only one galaxy: the Milky Way. Hubble's observations of Cepheids and subsequent measurement of their distances (using Henrietta Swan Leavitt's calculations) showed that many celestial objects were too far away to be part of the Milky Way and were actually galaxies themselves.❄</u>
<u>❄By calculating the distances to many newly found galaxies, Hubble also discovered that the galaxies were receding away from Earth and that the speed of recession was proportional to the distance. This established the fact that the universe was expanding, which changed the entire consensus (from the time of Newton) that the universe was finite. It also backed up Georges Lemaître's theory that the universe had a beginning (later called the Big Bang).❄</u>
