COSMIC HISTORY TIMELINE

An interactive timeline covering 13.8 billion years of cosmic history

About

Cosmic History Timeline is an interactive visualization that spans from the Big Bang to the present day. It covers the formation of the universe, galaxies, our solar system, the evolution of life on Earth, the rise of human civilizations, religions, and modern nations — all on a single, zoomable canvas.

Built as a lightweight single-page application with vanilla JavaScript and Canvas rendering. No frameworks, no backend, no tracking — just data and code.
