The Universe Began on Monday Afternoon.A large telescope is on its way to take a look at how the universe began.  It took 30 years to get such a project off the ground, which tempts me to compare it with the model plane my pal Ronnie and I constructed out of balsa wood in just 2 days. Admittedly, we never managed to get ours off the ground at all, but I'm just saying.
