The Triumph of Time

Cities in Flight #3 / 4
by James Blish
The Triumph of Time (Cities in Flight #3) by James Blish
Unrated

The Triumph of Time is also known as A Clash of Cymbals.

In three years' time the two universes were doomed to inevitable, catastrophic collision! When the scientists of the wandering planet, journeying through inter-galactic space, heard the sound of hydrogen atoms coming into existence out of nothing, they realized that they had accidentally discovered the birthplace of continuous creation. They had lifted the curtain and caught an instant's glimpse of the unknowable. But to have looked it full in the face could have been no more fatal. For later, much later, they were to learn that they had also uncovered mankind's Day of Judgment!
