In the high altitudes atop the pole's ice cap, the detectors are well above the densest, murkiest layers of atmosphere and can peer through some of the dryest, clearest air on earth to help determine whether the original Big Bang was unique or was followed by smaller ones.

Palmer has spent 15 years deciphering the symbols on the map, and he believes that the early careerists used different symbols to represent different possible futures. (Palmer also notes that the belief that each individual could pursue...
