The future of this universe

Planck 2018 · ΛCDM reference·7f1a1a9fConditional physical model
UNDER THE SELECTED ASSUMPTIONS

Asymptotic de Sitter expansion

The resolved background approaches a positive constant-density fluid. With the specified stable future law, H tends to a constant and expansion continues. Heat death remains an additional conditional thermodynamic interpretation.

WHY THIS FUTURE?

Assumptions shape the outcome.

A cosmological model constrains the evolution of its chosen ingredients. Unknown dark-energy behavior, particle stability and quantum gravity can change the answer.

A changing cosmic scale

Not an N-body simulation

Seeded tracer groups illustrate increasing separation using the selected simulation state. The expansion mapping is compressed for visibility; coordinates and populations are not a structure-formation prediction.
