Abstract
For a few years now, cosmology has a standard model. By this term, we mean a consistent theoretical background which is at the same time simple and broad enough to offer coherent explanations for the vast majority of cosmological phenomena. This review will briefly summarise the cosmological model, then proceed to discuss what we know from observations about the evolution of the Universe and its contents, and what we conclude about the origin and the future of the Universe and the structures it contains.
