Title: How to Bake a Universe
Abstract: In this recipe, I will share the steps to bake the universe. It begins as an infinitely hot, dense dough and expands into the universe we live in today, ready to be served at room temperature. The baking time is approximately 14 billion years. I will highlight key moments in this process, including the formation of the first sprinkles (stars), and explore the possible future of our universe. Don’t forget to bring the most important ingredient with you: nothing.
