According to what the universe's total amount of energy does not change?
It is because of the law of conservation of mass and energy, which states that the total amount of energy and mass in a closed system remains constant. This is because of Noether's Theorem. It states that some value in a symmetrical and closed system remains constant. Because of this, the mass and energy content of the universe remains constant as long as the laws of physics in it remain constant.
