Abstract
Regarding the current status of the superstring theory, despite its fully developed contents of all interactions in nature, it is no doubt that unfortunately it lacks a well established early universe cosmology content, that is, the inflationary universe. In the present work, we would like to address precisely this issue. To be more concrete, we would like to demonstrate that remarkably it is the well established open string tachyon condensation which is essentially equivalent to the stringy inflation that has been missing and hence long-seeking by nearly the entire string community.
