We present an interdisciplinary group devoted to the discussion of topics that are common to science, philosophy and teology. In particular, we approach the study of the end of the cosmos and analyze the antropological and teological implications of the scientific eschatology. From a scientific point of view, the end of the universe raises the challenge of making predictions from models that use observational evidence from a large span of past times, but can not be confirmed. Against this limitation, the complementary approach of the philosophy allows to build conceptual bridges between the scientific vision and the physical manifestation of the world, arising questions about the place of the human being in the cosmic eschatology. Also, we seek for the links between the natural and religious realisms, trying to establish relations between the revelation of the image of God and their manifestation in the observable universe.
