Moriond Conference Summary: The Cosmological Model(s)

The XXXVIIth Rencontres de Moriond on "The Cosmological Model" is briefly summarized. Almost none of the current observations argues against the popular Cold Dark Matter + Lambda concordance model. However, it remains to be tested how astrophysical uncertainties involved in the interpretation of the different data sets affect the derived cosmological parameters. Independent tests are still required to establish if the Cold Dark Matter and Dark Energy components are `real', or just `epicycles' that happen to fit the current data sets well.
