Turns out the universe might have an expiration date—and it’s way sooner than we thought! New galaxy surveys hint that dark energy (the stuff making the universe expand) could be changing over time. If that’s true, we’re looking at a cosmic plot twist: instead of expanding forever, the universe could start shrinking in about 10 billion years, ending in a dramatic ‘Big Crunch’ after 33 billion years. Wild, right? The science isn’t settled yet, but this theory is shaking up everything we thought we knew about the cosmos. #Science #SpaceNews #BigCrunch
