I'm studying the Big Bang theory in class and for my project we have to show all of our vocab words into something creative so I've decided to draw them all in on big drawing.
I need to know how to draw these;
-Electromagnetic Spectrum (I don't even know what that is!!)
-Red Shift (I kind of know what it is)
-Cosmos (isn't that the same as a galaxy? or universe??)
-WMAP (Don't even know what the stands for but if you can tell me that'd me great haha)
-Fusion
-Nucleosynthesis
When I draw them they have to fit into like space. My drawing so far is just the moon, Earth, stars and then I drew in my other vocab words.
please, help! Thank you.

Electromagnetic spectrum is best represented as a line with wavy wiggles. It starts at the short wavelength end (lots of tight wiggles) for xrays, then middle spaced waves (light going from ultraviolet to the rainbow colors blue to red, then to infrared) and very stretched out waves for radio.
Cosmos is a greek term for the whole universe. Cosmology is a study of how it came to be, what it is, what it will end up as, and the theories of how it works.
Galaxy is a greek term related to milk, as it was thought the view of our Milky Way galaxy across the sky looked like diluted spilled milk among the stars.
WMAP you can look on google--http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/ says "The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) is a NASA Explorer mission that launched June 2001 to make fundamental measurements of cosmology -- the study of the properties of our universe as a whole. WMAP has been stunningly successful, producing our new Standard Model of Cosmology. WMAP's data stream has ended. Full analysis of the data will be competed in the remaining two years of the mission."
Fusion is the process inside a star that creates its energy. Hydrogen nuclei (proton particles) stick together to make helium nuclei. In the process, a tiny amount of matter is converted into much energy by Einstein's equation e=mc^2
Nucleosythesis is the higher order of fusion. More complicated and heavier atoms are made inside stars until the iron atom is formed. Heavier ones than that were made when stars exploded (supernova).
