It is said, “everything which is born, must die once.” With the passage of time, everything has a lifespan.

how does the universe the universe will end?

Planets, Stars, Galaxies will all eventually cease to exist. With the Cease of planets, stars and galaxies, the universe and time itself will come to an end someday.

With the expansion of the universe, the matter becomes more dispersed. The gases and material that make up stars will be scattered over larger distances.

In this process of expansion and scattering, a day will come when the density of the universe will become very Low. It will be so low that it can not even be able to produce any new star.

By this time all the large stars and smaller sun-like stars will be gone. All that which left will be their burnt-out remnants in the form of black holes and black dwarfs.

There will be the chance of being remained is only one type star and that is Red Dwarf. Red Dwarf is a small dim star that burns its fuel at a very slow rate. It allows it to exist for trillions of years.

Any intelligent life that is lucky enough to be on a planet that orbits a Red Dwarf will look up at a black night sky, void of any bright points of light.

These Red Dwarfs also do not have an infinite lifespan. It too will eventually burn themselves out and will become faintly glowing ember known as a White Dwarf. these tiny points of light will only be left in the entire Universe.

The Universe will exist with its white dwarfs for trillions of years. Just imagine what will be the impact of that small amount of light emitted by the white dwarf.

It will be just like a firefly in kilometers of the darkness of the darkest night. This light will eventually fade away as there will be only darkness.

The earlier light-emitting white dwarfs will lose its all property of emitting light in the darkness and will convert into a black dwarf.

A Black Dwarf is an incredibly dense object made from the cold ashes of a long-dead star. This is the last stage of any star’s life cycle.

These too will be broken down and dispersed until eventually absolutely no matter will remain in the Universe, not even a single atom.

The Universe will be a cold, empty unchanging void as time itself will come to an end. This can seem like a very depressing future but the good news for us is that it won’t happen for a very, very long time.

The Universe will continue to form new stars and galaxies for trillions of years, if you consider that at the moment it is only 13.7 billion years old you begin to realize that the Universe is just in its infancy, a baby if you like. Its future in a sense has just begun.
