Greetings fellow Earthling! Allow me to extend my sincerest gratitude to you for showing interest in this text. It's been a long time coming - 13.8 billion years by my count. Have you ever wondered why we exist? Have you ever pondered what it means to live? Have you contemplated what it means to die? Think of all the things you know. No matter what you can imagine, it is all connected somehow. From the light of the Sun to the thoughts in your mind, all matter and energy within the universe share the same common thread. In our world there are all kinds of things, each unique in their own complexity. But of all that we see in the universe, none is able to question reality like human beings. And despite all of our cultures and behaviors, we still share a connection to every living thing and every shining star from the instant that time began. Within this text lies everything in existence, from the most distant galaxy to the most fundamental constituents of matter. The history of life, the universe, and humanity, all lie within our topic of our discourse. We will discuss all of the complex nuances of the cosmos, all the ways in which we understand the world, and most importantly the implications of all the knowledge our species has acquired since the first humans emerged on the savannah so many years ago. To all those who have loved, all those who have suffered, to all those who have ever looked at the world and asked what it all means, know that you are not alone.We may never have met, but this book was made just for you. Welcome to our cosmic home. Cover Image Credit: Hubble Space Telescope, NASA/ESA, http: //www.spacetelescope.org/images/heic0607a/
