      Hey dude!

      We have answered a very similar question already – here’s the link /calciumj11-zone/2011/06/how-can-the-world-end-is-there-any-acctual-reason
      I think it will be someway hot – like being hit by an asteroid and all burning up…no one really knows!! 🙂

      Hi there. The question we answered was about the world ending. The universe ending is a little different. We talk about the “Heat death of the universe”. This doesn’t actually mean hot or cold, it just means that over time everything falls into a state of equilibrium where nothing further can happen. “Not with a bang, but with a whimper” – a very long drawn out whimper.
