FIFTH EDITION: JULY 13, 2014.* The latest advances in physics and cosmology are important and exciting. This book provides this information for both the general reader and the science student. It also serves as a reference book. Information is indexed and easily found and used. Content includes: A timeline of key happenings in the history of our Universe including the birth of the Universe 13.8 billion years ago, first multi-cell life on Earth 4 billion years ago, Einstein's Special and General Theories of Relativity 1905-1915, and the end of the Universe a few hundred billion years or so from now. *The values of important constants such as the speed of light and the mass of the sun to nine significant digits. *Basic science information (a quick course in general physics). *Information about the tiny unseen particles that make up the atoms of our planet. Information about the Higgs Boson that culminated in the experimental detection of the Higgs Boson at the high-energy collider at CERN, Switzerland in July 2012. *Gravity Waves * Information about empty space before Big Bang, at the Big Bang, during the Big Bang, after Big Bang. *Information about empty space beyond our Universe and empty space after our Universe disappears. *This book facilitates the understanding of future scientific breakthroughs.
