1. Cosmology = Big Questions
What is the universe made of
How does it evolve
How do galaxies, stars and planets form
How do they evolve
What Laws of physics in extreme conditions
What are the origins and properties of the energetic particles reaching the Earth
Can we learn in earthbound laboratories about the beginning and evolution of the Universe
OR …..
