The development of cosmology will no doubt be seen as one of the scientific
triumphs of the twentieth century. At its beginning, cosmology hardly existed as
a scientific discipline. By its end, the Hot Big Bang cosmology stood secure as
the accepted description of the Universe as a whole. Telescopes such as the
Hubble Space Telescope are capable of seeing light from galaxies so distant that
the light has been travelling towards us for most of the lifetime of the
Universe. The cosmic microwave background, a fossil relic of a time when
the Universe was both denser and hotter, is routinely detected and its
properties examined. That our Universe is presently expanding is established
without doubt.
