Matter is everything around you. Atoms and molecules are all composed of
matter. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. If you are new to the
idea of mass, it is the amount of stuff in an object. We talk about the
difference between mass and weight in another section. Matter is sometimes
related to light and electromagnetic radiation.
Even though matter can be found all over the Universe, you will only find it in a few forms on Earth. We cover five states of matter on the site. Each of those states is sometimes called a phase. There are many other states of matter that exist in extreme environments. Scientists will probably discover more states as we continue to explore the Universe.
