While many long-standing questions in cosmology have now been answered, the new data pose new mysteries such as the nature of the ""dark energy"" that dominates the universe. This second edition provides an accessible and thorough text on the physics of cosmology and a lively account of the modern concordance model of the universe, from the big bang to a distant future dominated by dark energy. - ;Recent discoveries in astronomy, especially those made with data collected by satellites such as the Hubble Space Telescope 606 $aCosmology$vTextbooks 606 $aAstrophysics$vTextbooks 615 0$aCosmology 615 0$aAstrophysics 676 $a523.1 700 $aHawley$b John Frederick$0786864 701 $aHolcomb$b Katherine A.$f1957-$01527640 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778127803321 996 $aFoundations of modern cosmology$93770650 997 $aUNINA
