Scientific paper

A public program titled the ``Nature of the Universe Debate: Cosmology Solved?'' was held at the Smithsonian National Museum of National History on 1998 October 4. P. James E. Peebles and Michael S. Turner debated whether a fundamental set of cosmological parameters is emerging that provides a consistent geometric setting for the interpretation of cosmological observations. Introductory lectures were given by Owen Gingerich and Joseph Silk, and the program was moderated by Margaret J. Geller. This paper briefly summarizes the background, organization, and some events leading up to the program. The preceding papers are based on the actual lectures and arguments presented. The event was held in honor of David N. Schramm.
