Big Bounce/Multiverse
The Big Bounce is a little different from the other scenarios because
rather than the end being the obliteration of the Universe, it ends with
the rebirth of the Universe. It is said that when the universe collapses, it
will immediately create a new Universe. The other theory that goes
along with this is the possibility that there is a infinite number of
Universes.
What factors help scientist come up with the theories?
Dark Energy
Dark Energy is this “stuff” that takes up roughly 70
percent of the Universe. Scientist are not really sure
what it is, but they are certain it has to do with the
expansion of the Universe. They believe depending on
how much Dark Energy there is, depends on how
much the Universe will expand. They theorize that it
is this mysterious dark energy that is speeding up the
expansion process by splitting apart galaxies.

The Importance
Scientists are curious to determine these theories because it has to do with the future of man kind
and the future of other species that may be out there. It is important to explore what is around us, no
matter how large.
