    A complete history of the universe, spanning 13.8 billion years in an ultra-accessible, uncommonly illuminating, exhilarating chronicle of key events 
     
     
     
    In this thrilling history, David Baker captures the longest-possible time span—from the Big Bang to the present day—in an astonishingly concise retelling. His impressive timeline includes the "rise of complexity" in the cosmos and the creation of the first atoms; the origin of all galaxies, stars, and our solar system; and the evolution of life on Earth, from tiny single-celled organisms to human beings. 
     
     
     
    Weaving together insights across the sciences—including chemistry, physics, biology, archaeology, and anthropology—Baker answers the fundamental questions: How did time begin? Why does matter exist? What made life on Earth the way it is? He also argues that never before has life on Earth been forced to adjust to a changing climate so rapidly, nor has one species ever been responsible for such sudden change. Baker's grand view offers the clearest picture of what may come next—and the role we can still play in our planet's fate.

    For centuries, humans have gazed up at the night sky in awe, wondering what lies beyond the stars. With the invention of powerful telescopes, astronomers began mapping galaxies, studying their motion, and uncovering patterns in how they moved through space. But something strange started to appear in the data. Galaxies were spinning in ways that defied the known laws of gravity. Based on what could be seen—the stars, dust, and gas—the galaxies should have been flying apart. The visible mass simply wasn’t enough to account for the gravitational pull holding everything together. This marked the beginning of a great cosmic mystery. 
    In the 1930s, Swiss-American astronomer Fritz Zwicky made one of the first observations that hinted at this invisible force. He studied a cluster of galaxies and noticed that they were moving too fast to be held together by the visible matter alone. He proposed the existence of “dunkle Materie,” or dark matter—an unknown substance that made up the missing mass. At the time, his ideas were largely ignored or dismissed as speculative. But in the decades that followed, more evidence began to emerge, and dark matter slowly gained credibility within the scientific community. 
    Fast forward to the 1970s, astronomer Vera Rubin provided some of the most convincing evidence that dark matter was real. By analyzing the rotation curves of spiral galaxies, she showed that stars far from the center of galaxies were moving just as quickly as those near the core. According to Newtonian physics, the stars on the edges should move slower, as the gravitational pull should weaken with distance from the center. But that wasn’t happening. Something unseen was holding these stars in orbit, acting like a glue that bound the galaxies together. This unseen substance, which does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, became known as dark matter.
