How do we know that the universe even exsist? Is there proof?

Yes! Fortunately over the past decades technology has lead us to amazing discoveries that has affected our history tremendously and all of these discoveries and information are found by Astronomical Telescopes and satellites.

(Active Satellites)

The most basic instrument regarding recent discoveries of the universe is called the Telescope. This instrument enables astronomers to see distant objects in space and record the information. Telescopes work like this

-VERY powerful magnifying glass making objects appear much bigger and clearer to the naked eye.

The bigger and more powerful telescopes are located in large buildings known as observatories. Many of them are found on high lands (better for clear starry nights, which enables us to look at the sky more clearly through a telescope.)
