The Symphony of Science is a musical project of John D Boswell, designed to deliver scientific knowledge and philosophy in musical form. The project owes its existence in large measure to the classic PBS Series Cosmos, by Carl Sagan, Ann Druyan, and Steve Soter, as well as all the other featured figures and visuals.

All the matter was flung out, not entirely flung, but the space in between them expanded in scale. The matter first spread in uniform, then evolved to a world containing dark matter, star clusters, galaxies, and solar systems. Every second, our universe expands, still possessing the energy of the Big Bang. With the Big Bang came the birth of time
