Abstract

This research emphasized on create a model of the expansion of the small universe and study the physical characteristics of the expansion of the small universe, including a comparative study with the theory of universe expansion using balloon technique, which is an easy-to-find material, cheap and convenient for experimentation. The research results found that the experimental data were consistent with theoretical results. The regression velocity and arc length show a linear relationship that corresponds to the equation equation. The change in the value of the Hubble constant over time is given by  equation. The change of arc length between two points with time (seconds) is given by equation. Finally, the analysis of the motion of objects on the surface of the balloon expansion found that the experimental results were basically consistent with the theoretical results equation.
