1 Introduction. 1 There may, of course, in principle, exist other universes, but they are not accessible to our 1 1 Introduction Cosmology is the study of the universe as a whole, its structure, its origin, and its evolution. Cosmology is soundly based on observations, mostly astronomical, and laws of physics. These
