How Will Our Universe End?
The concept of the Big Bang, a foundational idea in cosmology, is widely recognized as the starting point of our universe. Yet, a sense of melancholy arises when reflecting upon the conclusion of certain cherished series. In this instance, I refer not to the conclusion of a television show but to the grand cosmic event. The Big Bang Theory, an event of immense energy and creation, is a notion familiar to most. However, lesser known is the concept of the Big Crunch, distinct from a mere candy bar. While scientific consensus points to the universe's inception with an explosive burst, opinions diverge on its ultimate fate. Various hypotheses, such as the Big Freeze and the Big Rip, speculate on the universe's destiny. The prevailing theory, the Big Crunch, envisions a scenario rooted in Einstein's general relativity.
