Abstract:
The broad outlines of the history of our Universe are now clear. This talk will summarize the modern picture for the origin of our Galaxy and the formation of our Earth, Sun, and Solar System within it. Crucially, there are many points along the way where that history could have taken a different turn, raising profound questions about chance, fine-tuning, Deity, and the very nature of reality. The modern cosmic origins story demolishes old myths and challenges us to find new meaning in the existence of Planet Earth and our presence on it.
