Amazingly, using only a few basic scientific principles one can construct a quantitative model of the universe that agrees surprisingly well with observational data. This model not only is in agreement with current observations, but makes clear predictions for the age of the universe and its future fate.

You will know that the Universe underwent a period of rapid, exponential expansion at early times. You will understand how inflation can explain the observed homogeneity and isotropy of the Universe. You will understand how inflation can explain the observed flat geometry of the Universe. You will know that inflation is driven by a release of energy from the
