Lost in Spacetime.Just when you thought it was safe to take final exams ...a vindictive multi-dimensional being reaches down (up? over? through?) to Earth and pulls you out of the universe.You are thrown back into the universe at a place of this being's choosing,and she permits you to leave only after you have identified your surroundings.You are subject to several tests.
Through a scientifically unexplainable miracle,you are able to survive in every one of the places you are tested.(Lest you become too comfortable,however,you certainly are able to feel any associated pain due to high temperature,pressure,gravity,etc. ) In each case described below,identify your surroundings.In some cases,the surroundings described may exist only during eras of the universe (past or future) other than our own time;in those cases,you should identify both the place and the time where you are located.

B) You are in the early universe before the Planck time.
C) You are floating somewhere in the universe near its end,10¹⁰⁰ years from now.
