In the beginning... There was dust... A LOT of dust...
But then something happened. Something miraculous. Something wonderful. Something so mind-blowingly abstract than mankind can barely grasp its conception. This event was eventually called "The Big Bang".

An appropriate name too, since it was this union of time and space that spawned existance. How and why did this occur? Simple... Mother Nature lost her virginity to Father time. The womb of empty space filled with ejaculated particles of dust. As the dust settled and the stars and planets formed, something began to expand and grow. Billions of years later, the Universe was born.
