Our Universe 4: Mysteries of the Cosmos

by Robert Piccioni

Overview

In this book we explore great cosmic mysteries still beyond the reach of established science:

What came before our universe?
How was our universe created?
Is our universe all that exists?
If not, what lies beyond?
Are there other universes?
Is the origin of life inevitable or miraculous?

We may never have objective evidence to definitively answer any of these questions. Nonetheless, they remain some of the most intriguing mysteries of our existence, and merit thoughtful consideration.
