The Age of Precision Cosmology and the Consensus in Understanding the Universe

Welcome to the age of precision cosmology! With an enormous amount of data from satellites like Kobe, boomerang, WMAP, and SPT, we are learning more and more about our universe. By combining our understanding of matter distribution, large-scale structure, element abundances, and the expansion of the universe, we have discovered a remarkable consistency in our findings. These findings reveal the free parameters of our cosmological model, such as the number of atoms, dark matter, dark energy, and the geometry of the universe.
