THE BIG BANG TIMELINE

big bang timeline in order

• electroweak -> particle -> hadron -> nucleosynthesis -> era of atoms -> era of galaxies -> unnamed

• hadron -> electroweak -> era of galaxies -> unnamed -> nucleosynthesis -> era of atoms

• era of atoms -> electroweak -> era of galaxies -> unnamed -> nucleosynthesis

• nucleosynthesis -> hadron -> electroweak -> era of atoms -> era of galaxies -> unnamed

cosmos goes through a superfast inflation, expanding from the size of an atom to the size of a grapefruit

electrons combine with protons and neutrons to form atoms, hydrogen and helium 

gravity makes hydrogen and helium merge to form giant clouds that will become galaxies

hadron epoch / formation of basic elements

• rabid cooling of cosmos turns quarks to change into protons and neutrons

• universe continues to expand and become distinct, possessing gravity, strong nuclear force and electromagnetic force

• protons and neutrons combine to form nuclei of hydrogen, helium and lithium

• electrons combine with protons and neutrons to form atoms, hydrogen and helium

electroweak era / inflationary epoch

• comsos go through a super fast inflation

• universe continues to expand and become distinct, posessing gravity, strong nuclear force and electromagnetic force

• rabid cooling of cosmos turns quarks to change into protons and neutrons

• protons and neutrons combine to form nuclei of hydrogen, helium and lithium

particle era / formation of the universe

• electrons combine with protons and neutrons to form atoms, hydrogen and helium

• universe continues to expand and become distinct, posessing gravity, strong nuclear force and electromagnetic force

• protons and neutrons combine to form nuclei of hydrogen, helium and lithium

• rabid cooling of cosmos turns quarks to change into protons and neutrons

protons and neutrons combine to form nuclei of hydrogen, helium and lithium

nucleosynthesis era

• rabid cooling of cosmos turns quarks to change into protons and neutrons

• protons and neutrons combine to form nuclei of hydrogen, helium and lithium

• electrons combine with protons and neutrons to form atoms, hydrogen and helium 

• gravity makes hydrogen and helium merge to form giant clouds that will become galaxies

era of galaxies

• gravity makes hydrogen and helium merge to form giant clouds that will become galaxies

• electrons combine with protons and neutrons to form atoms, hydrogen and helium 

• as galaxies cluster together under gravity, the first stars dies and discharges heavy elements into space

• protons and neutrons combine to form nuclei of hydrogen, helium and lithium
