What would it be like to see the whole history of the universe,
from the moment of creation to the farthest future? Deep Time shows
us - through the eyes of a single particle that emerges from the
fires of genesis then journeys across countless billions of years
to glimpse the ultimate fate of the cosmos. Along the way, we watch
the formation of stars and galaxies, narrowly avoid falling into a
black hole, witness the birth of the sun and earth, trace the
evolution of life and intelligence, and blast off into space again
with our particle now part of the Voyager 2 spacecraft. Then we
travel on, across immense vistas of space and time, toward the end
of all things - and a strange new beginning." David Darling is the

Megacatastrophes , We Are Not Alone, Gravity's Arc, Equations of
