La tentation est grande de chercher, dans l'histoire de l'Univers et dans celle de ses origines, une réponse à nos questions existentielles. Mais la science, réfractaire à ces questions, se contente de s'appuyer sur ce qui est définitivement élucidé pour aller vers l'immense à découvrir. C'est en physicien que Michel Crézé nous conte cette histoire, depuis le bien mal nommé «Big Bang», nimbé d'un brouillard épais d'où émergent des structures nuageuses faites des atomes les plus simples. Là naissent les premières étoiles, forges des éléments plus complexes, et les premières galaxies. Pendant des milliards d'années, étoiles et galaxies vont coopérer pour produire des cortèges de planètes riches de toute la diversité de la matière. Sur la Terre au moins se sont trouvé réunies les conditions suffisantes pour qu'apparaisse la vie.Un récit de voyage vers l'infini qui se dérobe, un scénario où s'emboîtent magnifiquement les ressources de toutes les sciences, et aux frontières duquel on voit déjà se dessiner des failles, des fenêtres ouvertes pour chercher plus loin.

Stephen Hawking's closest collaborator offers the intellectual superstar's final thoughts on the universe. Perhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary life was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life. In order to solve this mystery, Hawking studied the big bang origin of the universe, but his early work ran into a crisis when the math predicted many big bangs producing a multiverse - countless different universes, most of which would be far too bizarre to harbour life. Holed up in the theoretical physics department at Cambridge, Stephen Hawking and his friend and collaborator Thomas Hertog worked on this problem for twenty years, developing a new theory of the cosmos that could account for the emergence of life. Peering into the extreme quantum physics of cosmic holograms and venturing far back in time, they were startled to find a deeper level of evolution in which the physical laws themselves transform and simplify until particles, forces, and even time itself fades away. This discovery led them to a revolutionary idea : the laws of physics are not set in stone but are born and co-evolve as the universe they govern takes shape. As Hawking's final days drew near, the two collaborators published their theory, which proposed a radical new Darwinian perspective on the origins of our universe. The book offers a striking new vision of the universe's birth that will profoundly transform the way we think about our place in the order of the cosmos and may ultimately prove to be Hawking's greatest legacy.
