  • Abstract
    The article is about the origin and the arrow of time. The author explains that special conditions in the early universe are responsible for the arrow of time. The authors talk about the nature of time, the origin of entropy, and how what happened before the Big Bang may be responsible for the arrow of time we observe today.
