    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 The universe has evolved over the course of time, and as we gaze upon its glory, it is easy to imagine that the universe has always been this way. But we know this is an illusion. In the life span of the universe, human lives and civilizations pass in the blink of an eye.

    #2 The universe is made up of many different pieces of mathematics that must be put together in a specific way to describe its various aspects. However, we don’t know if any of these methods is a good approximation of reality in the extreme conditions of the earliest epochs of the universe.

    #3 The first glimpse of quantum mechanics occurred on the treeless island of Heligoland in the North Sea in Germany in 1925. It was developed by theoretical physicist Werner Heisenberg, and it explained the latest experimental probing of the microscopic realm.

    #4 The uncertainty principle is an example of how quantum physics states that we can never precisely know all the properties of an object. This is because there is no experiment that can be performed that can definitively determine the properties of an object.
