Yes friends the beginning of the end of the universe will happen in approximately 20 billion years ... give or take a million here or a million there and here a million and there a million and ergo ... the universe will collapse and coalesce into a single hyper-dense speck of cosmic schmutz and we sure as hell won't be around to enjoy it. Bummer no doubt. So here's the deal ... the whiz bang pseudo-intellectual science kids have arrived their conclusion that the universe MUST collapse which is entirely different than the bullshit the whiz kids were all worked up about not so long ago, that was their 'concern that our universe was simple expanding until ain't about nobody around nowhere and damn is it ever so cold a way out here in space ... somewhere'. Well all that has changed and the illuminating factor here is ... ready? ... lambda. That's right lambda.
The key to this switch-a-roo is the cosmological constant, which is designated by the Greek letter 'lambda'. 'Lambda' describes the influence of dark energy that if someone considers it, lambda, positive, it pushed the universe outward and an accelerating expansion. HOWEVER, "new data" indicates the possibility the lambda is negative. In a negative case lambda would work like gravity constantly pulling inward and slowing down expansion. Following ... ? There's more ...
Scientists have introduced an "ultralight axion field" into their model to explain why we are currently observing expansion. "Hypothetical particles" gave the universe a powerful push outward at the beginning of its history. Nowadays the axions are the big players, even though the little fuckers are hypothetical, making space expand faster and faster. BUT, that influence is fading. In about 11 billion years or so give or take some, the decelerating force of negative lambda will prevail. Our universe will reach its maximum size (1.7 times larger than at present) then stop expanding start contracting and voila ... fait accompli. There is NO mention how lambda goes from a positive dealy to a negative thingy so ... just believe it cause ... you know.
The whiz kids are making a universe size series of assumptions and assumptions tend to make the assumer an ass. Lots of quasi-intellectual prattle with god damn little hard scientific fact to bolster their rather ludicrous assertions. First off who in the hell told the whiz kids they could use antiquated Greek letters for scientific postulating? I didn't and I suppose we could as Dr. DeGrasse Tyson but the master himself might be hard pressed to cover the gaping holes in the genius kids gobble de gook. Gobble de gook is prattle for unmitigated and galling bullshit veiled in PhD's and various other letters of "higher education." They're talking all manner of smack. Now for some Monday machine art. I think that when our universe does collapse or end or whatever ... ain't about not too much is going to matter.

he key to this theory is the cosmological constant, which is designated by the Greek letter 位 (lambda). It describes the influence of dark energy. If we consider it positive, it pushes the Universe outward, accelerating its expansion. However, new data indicate the possibility that 位 is negative. In this case, it works like gravity, constantly pulling inward and slowing down expansion.
Scientists have introduced an ultralight axion field into the model to explain why we are currently observing expansion. These hypothetical particles gave the Universe a powerful push outward at the beginning of its history. Nowadays, the axions are the main players, making space expand faster and faster. But their influence is slowly fading. In approximately 11 billion years, the decelerating force of negative 位 will prevail. The Universe will reach its maximum size (1.7 times larger than its current size), stop expanding, and begin to contract.
