Cosmology deals with the physical situation that is the context in the large for human existence (Christopher Smeenk, George Ellis)
On the one hand, the argument arises from human curiosity as to why there is something rather than nothing or than something else. It invokes a concern for some full, complete, ultimate, or best explanation of what exists contingently. On the other hand, it raises intrinsically important philosophical questions about contingency and necessity, causation and explanation, part/whole relationships (mereology), possible worlds, infinity, sets, the nature of time, and the nature and origin of the universe (Bruce Reichenbach)

Everything in Our Universe—Even the Chair You’re Sitting On—May Be Conscious, Scientists Say
According to panpsychism, everything in the world is inherently soulful with an internal mind. Is this a clue to understanding our universe or just metaphysical mumbo-jumbo?

What is an atom? Facts about the building blocks of the universe
Atoms were created after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago. As the hot, dense new universe cooled, conditions became suitable for quarks and electrons to form. Quarks came together to form protons and neutrons, and these particles combined into nuclei
