\u2018Astronomers have made astonishing progress in probing our cosmic environment. We can trace cosmic history from some mysterious \u201cbeginning\u201d nearly 14 billion years ago, and understand in outline the emergence of atoms, galaxies, stars and planets.<\/p>\n

But the key parameters of our expanding universe — the expansion rate, the geometry and the content — were established far earlier still, when the physics is still conjectural but can be pinned down by future observations. These advances pose new questions: What does the long-range future hold? Should we be surprised that the physical laws permitted the emergence of complexity? And is physical reality even more extensive than the domain that our telescopes can probe? This illustrated lecture will attempt to address such issues.\u2019<\/p>\n
