“…During the first eight billions years, the formation of huge diversity of stellar bodies and new heavy elements took place in the Universe until about 5-4.5 billion years ago there the conditions were formed for the formation of stellar (Solar) system. On one of its planets there started new geological, chemical and biochemical processes (for more detail see Christian 2004;Lin 2008;Batygin et al 2016;Grinin 2017Grinin , 2018.…”

“…In other words, we deal here with a vivid example of self-organization that takes place under the influence of gravitation and thermodynamic laws. In particular, an intensive contraction leads to heating, which increases the internal pressure, which, eventually, stops the compression process (for more details about the processes of young stars emergence including the direct observation of them as well as about the Sun's birth see Marakushev et al 2013;Marov et al 2013;Grinin 2017Grinin , 2018.…”

“…Thus, it is supposed that the Moon emerged as a result of a collision of a large object with the Earth. The shockwave from a nearby supernova may have been such a trigger for the birth of the Sun about two million years before its collapse started (see Adushkin et al 2008, 276;Bizzarro et al 2007;Grinin 2017Grinin , 2018. Thus, we can formulate rule of necessary triggering phenomena or events to launch evolutionary process.…”

“…While studying the issue it became clear that the number of similarities and common features of the evolutionary progress at its various stages and levels is extremely large, that they can be revealed in the most seemingly different processes and phenomena. Almost everything, that we know about evolution can be already found at its cosmic phase (see also Grinin 2013Grinin , 2014aGrinin , 2014bGrinin , 2015aGrinin , 2015bGrinin , 2017Grinin , 2018Grinin , 2019. Naturally, many phenomena are revealed in a rudimentary or unsystematic form, but a number of characteristics, on the contrary, are more clearly expressed just at the cosmic phase.…”

“…An absolute homogeneity makes some evolutionary processes impossible while even a slightest difference can trigger the regrouping of matter or elements in the assemblage. And a new structure and order arise on this basis (see Grinin 2017Grinin , 2018 for more details).…”

The effort to understand the Universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy." These words said by the Nobel laureate Steven Weinberg (1977: 155) undoubtedly deserve attention, although they dramatize the origins of interest to the problems of the Universe. In fact, we do not need any justification to explain the desire to understand the origins of all living beings. This aspiration to perceive the world in its entirety lies in the human psyche, it is an integral feature of the mind, at least of a certain kind of people who always want to reach out to ultimate causes (although they can never stop on this way). Moreover, in recent decades the investigation of the world in its entirety (but not of its separate aspects) has been intensified in particular within the Big History. Big History provides unique opportunities to consider the development of the Universe as a single process, to detect vectors of changes of certain important characteristics of the Universe (such as complexity and energy) at various phases of this development. Some authors analyze important general evolutionary mechanisms and patterns, which can be seen at all phases of Big History (e.g.

Although complexity plays a significant role in big history, substantial gaps persist in our comprehension. While the papers in this issue do not provide definitive answers to these gaps, they contribute to the ongoing discussion on how to address these issues and propose potential pathways for resolution. These gaps encompass measurement, focus, organization, relevance, consistency, and interpretation. While there may not be unanimous agreement on the specific direction to take, the academic discussions evident in these papers aim to elucidate the issues and foster understanding within the expansive and diverse scientific community.The theme of this special edition is "Evolving Continuously to Bridge Substantial Gaps in Our Understanding of Complexity." Comprising 14 articles, including this Introduction, the issue is organized with a focus on complexity growth, evolution, and various aspects. The articles on growth explore methodologies for measuring, assessing, and examining the symmetry of singularity trends in complexity within the framework of Big History. Those addressing complexity and evolution delve into perspectives such as chaotic cascades, general evolution, selection, and chemical evolution. The aspects section encompasses discussions on integration with traditional academic disciplines, handling the multidirectional aspects of complexity, practical applications of complexity science, proposing an approach to interpreting the Big History journey, and comparing the process to cybernetic models.The significance of the concept of complexity, along with its various facets, is not merely substantial; it forms the very structure of understanding. When contemplating the broadest concepts that can encompass the entirety of Big History or the field of evolutionary studies, only a handful stand out. These include notions tied to evolutionary dynamics, such as development, change, and progress, yet these concepts often spark debates. Central among them are energy and entropy, and to a lesser extent, self-organizationencompassing crucial aspects of energetic and structural ordering. Information is also a contender, though the period at which it becomes an independent aspect of evolution remains a subject of debate. However, we contend that one can fundamentally discuss information from the inception of Big History.Arguably, few would dispute that complexity stands as one of the key concepts in Big History. Yet, given the substantial gaps in our understanding of the complexity concept, any novel ideas or hypotheses are warmly welcomed.The complexity growth papers delve into fundamental questions of measurement, assessment, and symmetry of patterns. Nick Nielsen ("A Complexity Ladder for Big History") suggests that big history could draw inspiration from astronomy, where a unifying ladder of distance measurement was constructed to handle diverse spatial and temporal scales. This ladder extended from the size and distances of the Earth-moon-sun system to other stars and galaxies, allowing telescopes across the ele...
