Timelines
- World historyScience & NaturePublic
This timeline outlines the history of the formation of our Galaxy, from the earliest formation of the Galaxy to the emergence of the Earth, and then takes a look at the future to at least 100 million years ahead. It combines historical-scientific facts about cosmic and planetary formation with a speculative vision of the further evolution of the Galaxy and our solar system. The tone is large-scale and epic, fitting for astronomical timescales and the transition from documented past to hypothetical future.
