The Universe is expanding at an accelerating rate, but new research hints that this acceleration is not constant—dark energy may change its strength over time, like gusts of wind. In the far future, this could lead to an unexpected end of the cosmos.
🎯 If dark energy is indeed inconstant, the Universe's finale could be different: expansion isn't eternal—after trillions of years it might slow down, and galaxies will start approaching each other, triggering a reverse collapse.
