What Energy Drives the Universe?
energy.nobelprize.orgnumber of photons in the universe practically did not change during its evolution, but the energy of each photon decreased as the temperature of the universe T. The standard classical description of the universe becomes possible at the Planck time, when the temperature of the universe was 1032 times greater than now. At that time, the
