Abstract: I will cover much history, of ancient cosmic ideas, of nuclear astrophysics, of CMB@75 in theory, of the golden age transition from murky subject to the high precision one now, with the data flood of cosmic information on the cosmic microwave background and the interconnected cosmic web of galaxies defining our vibrant future, as it did our golden past, with lots of pictures of people through my 5.5 decades of work – still crazy after all these years – coherently so, and entropic throughout.
