Our age is counted in term of Earth years defined as the time taken by Earth to complete a revolution around Sun.One of the most fascinating difference in the different 'Yugas/Aras' as per ancient Indian religions is the decline of ages and heights in different Yugas.
In 'Satyuga', people are taller and live for many years. The height and age decreases continuously and is least in 'Kaliyuga'. Now the Earth always seem to revolve round the Sun in all Yugas in a similar manner. What can be the cause of this rise and decline?
According to one interpretation,distance of the Sun from centre of Universe (Vishnu Nabhi) governs this rise and decline.
There is nothing such center of universe that modern science has been able to discover so far.As we explore this universe, our concept and ideas about it changes. We have come a long way since the modern beings started exploration of this universe. Have a look at the following video which describes Universe as known so far to modern science.
