fundamental question in cosmology is, “How did the universe begin? ” The two pivotal ideas of infl ation and cold dark matter (CDM), combined with extensive observational results, including the unpre-dicted accelerated expansion of the universe, underpin a new standard model of cosmology. Modern cosmology began with the appli-cation of general relativity to interpret the relation between galaxy redshifts (how fast they are speeding away) and their distance from us ( 1). The presence of large amounts of dark matter was deduced early on ( 2) and has become part of the standard model. The dis-covery of the cosmic microwave backgroun
