Publisher's Summary

Sample key takeaways: 

  1. Protons are an infinitesimal part of an atom. They are so microscopic that about 500,000,000,000 of them could fit in a dot of ink. 
  2. A universe is created when a proton shrinks down to one billionth of its normal size into a space so small that the proton looks enormous by comparison. This compact space is then packed with every last mote and particle of matter. This is how a universe is created. 
  3. In a single blinding pulse or a Big Bang, the universe begins to infinitely expand. In the first lively second, gravity and the other forces that govern physics are produced. In less than a minute, the universe is billions of miles across and growing fast.
