How Will the Universe End?
Episode 1112
Today, we're bringing you the final installment of our space summer series ... with the end ... of EVERYTHING. Will the universe end in a huge cosmic unraveling? A slow and lonely dissolution? Or a quantum-level transition that breaks the laws of physics? Theoretical astrophysicist Katie Mack breaks down three possible scenarios for how the universe as we know it will finally come to an end.
To celebrate the end of our Space Camp series, we also made a QUIZ! Check it out at npr.org/spacecamp.
