Current theory...for a small minority of scientists. It's a possibility, but it's now thought more likely that the universe will just continue to expand without end.
HMMMMMMMM.. If you keep walking souh in a strait line and walk past the south pole you will still be heading in the same direction but north will be your detintion.
There is to much matter in the universe or that to happen. We will be clumped together. The local group( a chain of abot 50 glaxies that are close to us) are colliding an cmping together. The mlkway isheaded to the Vegan super cluster a super glaxy made up of about 1000 galaxies.
Now thats alot of graviational pull. We will arive there in about 5 bllion years or so. when all the known matter is clumped together including the pull of black holes that strip molicules bare all compress together there will be another dawn in the universe. Another big bang.
