The universe we are part of originated from an infinitely small point and, through the Big Bang, evolved into the magnificent cosmic immensity we know today. Therefore, knowledge of the "immensely big", or rather the universe that surrounds us,cannot be separated from understanding the infinitely small structures of matter that make up the universe itself.
In simple yet comprehensive language, Mauro Ricchetti takes readers on a journey of discovery through atomic structures and galactic immensity.
He also recounts the lives and contributions of the scientists who made this knowledge possible.
To better understand the Big Bang and black holes, i.e.the unsolved mysteries of science, we must ask ourselves what "time" really is and consider the hypothesis that the beginning and end of the universe are simultaneous.
