Abstract
We discuss recent developments related to certain blow up methods suitable for the analysis of cosmological singularities and asymptotics. We review results obtained in a variety of currently popular themes and describe ongoing research about universes with various kinds of extreme states, higher order gravity, and certain models of braneworlds.
