 'From the beginning we have asked ourselves how life began, what the meaning of our existence is, and where we are going. We have strived to understand time, matter, the infinite universe, who we are, and if we are alone. Great minds have imagined the most astonishing and terrifying answers to these questions. We invite you to join us in this great endeavor.' (Stephen Hawking)
