We study the time evolution of freely rolling moduli in the context ofM-theory on a G_2 manifold. This free evolution approximates the correctdynamics of the system at sufficiently large values of the moduli when effectsfrom non-perturbative potentials and flux are negligible. Moduli fall into twoclasses, namely bulk moduli and blow-up moduli. We obtain a number ofnon-trivial solutions for the time-evolution of these moduli. As a genericfeature, we find the blow-up moduli always expand asymptotically at early andlate time.Comment: 17 pages, Late
