A transition from normal hadronic matter (e.g. protons and neutrons) to quark-gluon matter is expected at both high temperatures and densities. In physical situations, this transition may occur in heavy ion collisions, the early universe, and in the cores of neutron stars. The author discusses the transition in the latter two of these environments. With regard to the early universe, he focuses attention on the effect of inhomogeneities produced by the transition on big bang nucleosynthesis, the theory describing the primordial origin of the light elements. A transition to quark matter in the interior of neutron stars, further enhances our uncertainties regarding the equation of state of dense nuclear matter and neutron star properties such as the maximum mass and rotation frequencies.
