Will the Universe End in a Big Rip?

NASA APOD · Lynette Cook
COSMIC MESSAGE

Our universe began with a Big Bang, but how will it end? One theory suggests a 'Big Rip,' driven by a mysterious repulsive phantom energy. This controversial scenario posits that dark energy will grow so powerful that, in a few billion years, even galaxies will be torn apart.
