    The oscillating universe theory proposes that the universe expands from a Big Bang, then contracts back into a Big Crunch singularity which triggers another Big Bang, resulting in indefinite cycles of expansion and contraction. Under this model, the universe is currently expanding after a Big Bang but will eventually reverse and collapse back down to a dense state where another Big Bang will occur, giving birth to a new universe.

    The oscillating universe theory is 

    a cosmological model that states that the universe


    oscillates between indefinite, self-sustaining cycles of expansion in contraction. In other
    words, the Big Bang and Big Crunch occur regularly, and we are in between the two currently.

    The Big Crunch occurs when the universe expands and eventually reverses, then collapses
    causing a singularity or the formation of another Big Bang. The Oscillating Universe Theory
    suggests that once the universe reverses and attains the point of singularity, another
    universe will be born.

    Einstein first proposed this theory in the 1920's in response to the model of the expanding
    universe.
