New Frontiers in Cosmology	In the fourth part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock conjecture about future developments in cosmology. What part of cosmology is most likely to be fruitful? This discussion was conducted at Trinity College, Oxford, on May 12, 2016.	John Peacock, Joe Silk	13 July, 2016
Dark Energy and the Multiverse	In the third part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock consider approaches to dark energy. Should we accept the multiverse, or wait for a theory of quantum gravity?	John Peacock, Joe Silk	13 July, 2016
New Data and New Work	In the second part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock discuss possible future sources of data and developments in cosmology. They conjecture about the search for dark matter and its impact on astronomy.	John Peacock, Joe Silk	13 July, 2016
New Statistics and Prediction	In the first part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock compare approaches to statistics and how these bear on predictions in cosmology, including Weinberg’s prediction of the cosmological constant.	John Peacock, Joe Silk	13 July, 2016
