Description
Has the universe always been there? Or, was it created some time? What was there before creation? How large is the universe? How and why did the solar system form?
Is the solar system going to last for ever? Is the universe static, or has it been evolving? What is going to happen to the universe as a whole in the future? How does science go about finding answers to such questions?
These are only some of the questions that the author answers in this little book.
