Did the Gravity of the Big Bang Determine the Fate of the Universe?

šŸ’” The Answer

  • The overall density of matter and energy dictates cosmic expansion.
  • Critical density separates scenarios: Big Crunch, Big Freeze, or accelerating.
  • Dark energy's repulsive gravity is currently accelerating expansion.
  • Observations suggest the universe will expand forever, cooling down.
