- The universe has cooled (photons have red-shifted) to 1 trillion K.
- Photons no longer have enough energy to create protons and antiprotons.
- Protons and antiprotons annihilate, leaving the extra 1 proton per billion.
- Photons are still energetic enough to make electron-positron pairs
- Too hot for nuclear fusion to occur. Photons destroy any nuclei that form.
