An open universe is one that?
An open universe is a universe where all of the galaxies and stars and everything in the universe keep expanding with nothing stopping them. This theory says that the galaxies and stars will keep going further and further from the centre of the universe until everything dies off. This is the opposite of the closed universe theory where everything will expand, and then something will cause a turning point and everything will contract until everything there ever was will fit into a space the size of the dot at the end of this sentence. Then, possibly another 'Big Bang' will happen and start everything over again. :)
