Long ago—some 12 billion years—our universe was formed in the Big Bang, an immense explosion that gave birth to countless galaxies, stars, and planets. Scientists today—trying to understand more about the origin and destiny of the Universe around us—have a better understanding than ever before of when and how the Big Bang took place. Learn the ways in which images from the Hubble Space Telescope have contributed to our knowledge of those first cosmic moments, and how current research is giving rise to theories about the universe's expansion and eventual end. Discover how cosmologists are closing in on answers to the greatest questions facing the human race: Where did we come from? Where are we now? And where will we ultimately go?
