Evolution of the Universe, artwork
Evolution of the Universe. Computer artwork showing the evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang (far left) 12-15 billion years ago to the present day (far right). Immediately after the Big Bang was the Plank Era (yellow) during which all four forces were unified. This symmetry then breaks, leading to the inflation period (orange) a rapid time of exponential expansion. The universe begins to cool and atomic nuclei can form (nucleosynthesis, red). After 300, 000 years (pink) atoms start to form and after 1 billion years (purple) galaxies start to form

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "Evolution of the Universe" takes viewers on a visual journey through the cosmic timeline. Starting from the left, we witness the momentous event that sparked it all - the Big Bang, which occurred approximately 12-15 billion years ago. The Plank Era follows in a vibrant yellow hue, representing an era where all four fundamental forces of nature were unified. As this symmetrical state breaks apart, we enter the inflation period depicted in striking orange tones. This rapid expansion phase is characterized by exponential growth and sets the stage for subsequent developments. Cooling down gradually, atoms begin to form after 300,000 years (pink), paving the way for nucleosynthesis (red) as atomic nuclei come into existence. After one billion years (purple), galaxies emerge across space as stars and matter coalesce within them. This awe-inspiring illustration beautifully captures not only our universe's evolution but also its vastness and complexity. From subatomic particles to planetary formations and beyond, this artwork encapsulates key milestones in cosmological history while highlighting humanity's quest to understand our origins. Created by Science Photo Library with meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy, this print serves as a testament to human curiosity about our place in an ever-expanding cosmos.
