The Primordial Era is defined as "−50 < n < 5". In this era, the Big Bang, the subsequent inflation, and Big Bang nucleosynthesis are thought to have taken place. Toward the end of this age, the recombination of electrons with nuclei made the universe transparent for the first time.
The age of the universe by redshift z=5 to 20. For early objects, this relationship is calculated using the cosmological parameters for mass Ω m and dark energy Ω Λ, in addition to redshift and the Hubble parameter H 0. [9] This period measures from 380,000 years until about 1 billion years.

This is a timeline of science fiction as a literary tradition. While the date of the start of science fiction is debated, this list includes a range of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance-era precursors and proto-science fiction as well, as long as these examples include typical science fiction themes and topoi such as travel to outer space and encounter with alien life-forms.
