How do you think the universe will end?

[dank]

You forgot the option of singularity.

Earth will ascend through a positive feedback loop of synchronized conscious energy.  A mass of humans will quickly discover everything is happening at once and evolution will exponentially accelerate until the point of singularity, where the one will defy the energy of gravity by harnessing the infinite power of the feedback loop.

The power of the ascension will be strong enough to lift every human on earth.

Never ends

Ouroboros.

I was playing around with this idea earlier too. Kind of like how we're getting closer and closer to a consciousness singularity here (I see it, dank does, do you?), I could hypothesize that in the future our universes in the multiverse might merge into a singularity, too, and that might be . /fractalz

---perhaps singularity-realization might represent one of the higher (highest?) rungs of the Sephirot?

there's no doubt about that, except sun is getting closer to the earth

Humans will exterminate themselves before universe ends so we will never see it

[Splatters]

None of us will be here to see that moment, what a pity!

no one can know what the show will be at worlds end

The end of the universe will not be televised. 

My favorite ending is someone turning off the switch on this virtual reality. And the laws of physics of reality might be different than in this simulation, so we can't very well speculate how that universe will end.

I too believe it is quite possible that we exist within some form of The Matrix. It may be that some highly advanced beings created an exact copy of the omniverse to serve as an archive, allowing them to experience it virtually. I could also simply be a program of an artificial brain running a simulation. Whatever the case may be, contemplating our existence seems to be a part of my programming which I enjoy exercising.

It will not end 

[cocos]

The universe has no beginning or end.

[drmundo]

the earth will end with possible bigger asteroids.

Most people enjoy doing it. And fortunately so. What I meant by the last part of my answer was that reality might be so different that we can't easily extrapolate from what we know about this universe to find out how reality will end. But we should definitely keep trying anyway.

Don't worry about it. You'll be dead before you notice.

On the contrary, whether it comes from science or religion, I find most people choose to accept the status quo and actually find it a chore to use their brain. Fortunately, we are blessed by extraordinary individuals now and then and this is the only reason why we have managed to make actual progress every once in a while. Einstein said it best, "Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." I am in no way suggesting that I am one of these extraordinary individuals, just pointing out that people who think outside the box are not as common as you think.

I completely agree with what you say about the likelihood of our perceptions of the universe turning out to be different from reality. (In fact, all too often this has been proven to be the case.) The scenario I gave of the artificial brain running a simulation also supports this, implying that the laws of physics within its universe could be completely fictitious.

Universe? I dont think it will end. I cant imagine it ending. Earth, earth might end in a nuclear war.

[Bitcoin Magazine]

technically when the last organism dies.  which is like a long time away.  and by that time, jesus.   who knows.  2.1 trillion years?? 

[sumantso]

It will just keep expanding at  a slower rate, entropy will keep building up and eventually stars will have used up all the fuel and all the lights will be out.

Very bleak future, but its billions of years away so unless we get a time machine to check it out its just going to remain academic.

[cookiemonsterwhat]

I say we will die by heat eventually weather changes so much we cannot go outside.

[iluvbitcoins]

if the universe compresses into one singularity and creates a new big bang

was it really destroyed?

there wasn't an end

it's a continuum

[dank]

It's not the universe that will be destroyed, it is evil that will.
