Abstract
The current state of cosmology is easy to summarize: a very successful standard model - the hot big-bang cosmology - that accounts for the evolution of the Universe from 10 −2 sec until the present; bold ideas based upon early-Universe physics - foremost among them inflation and cold dark matter - that can extend the standard cosmology to times as early as 10 −32 sec and address the most pressing questions; and a flood of observations - from determinations of the Hubble constant to measurements of CBR anisotropy - that are testing inflation and cold dark matter.
