As early as 2.8 billion years the new universe dies, don't be too afraid

Based on previous analysis of many advanced research and hypotheses, especially on dark energy, scientists predict that in the worst case scenario, the universe will end in as early as 2.8. billion years from now and they tell us "be assured, we are safe now".

Until now, most scientists agree that the universe will die but exactly when and how it will happen, they still cannot be identified. However, scientists at the University of Lisbon, Portugal led by Diego Sáez-Gómez conducted an analysis based on numerous studies to verify the "Big Rip" hypothesis that is widely accepted to explain the universe's death .

Many hypotheses have been proposed for the death of the universe. One of them said that because the universe continued to expand with increasing speed and until all the stars died, everything disappeared, the universe would be too cold and eventually create so "death of heat" . There is also a theory of a "Big Crunch" , that the universe will collapse on itself leading to destruction. However, since the emergence of the concept of dark matter physicists began to get some other ideas and that was Big Rip.

Big Rip is also based on the rapid expansion of the universe and this acceleration will be led by dark energy.

Big Rip is also based on the rapid expansion of the universe and this acceleration will be led by dark energy. Therefore, if the entire dark energy is increasing according to the hypothesis of scientists, it may, tearing the structure of the universe into pieces. Previous predictions suggest that the event will happen about 22 billion years - a time too far in the future.

However, based on further research on dark energy and how it controls the expansion of the universe, Sáez-Gómez decided to reestablish models that could happen on a hypothetical basis. These models allow him to estimate the universe's timeline, the earliest or latest time that Big Rip event can take place. Accordingly, at the earliest, it will take 2.8 billion more years before the event of Big Rip takes place.

The 2.8 billion year figure probably makes us feel really safe compared to the life expectancy of a lifetime. And in fact, things get even brighter when scientists still have not determined the latest threshold that Big Rip can take. They even think that Big Rip may no longer happen but the heat death will happen to the universe.

2.8 billion years is still just an estimate in the new study and there is still no concrete evidence.

Still, 2.8 billion years is still an estimate in the new study and there is no specific evidence yet. For comparison, it was previously predicted that the Sun would shine at least 5 billion years and compared to this study it was clearly contradictory. The researchers also stated that there should be more research tools on theoretical basis, especially knowledge of quantum mechanics, relativity, . to be able to solve this question in the future. hybrid
