Great question. I can tell you that nobody knows for sure. The "current best answer" is that there is insufficient mass to cause the expanding universe to stop and come back together. In fact the expansion is accelerating!

Q: Theoretically the universe will keep expanding and eventually even atoms' parts separate into pure energy so why could such energy not lose momentum then collapse and re-explode?

Will one black hole eventually swallow all others?

If time were to go on infinitely, the universe were to stop expanding, and the universe didn't collapse on itself or tear apart, (a lot of prerequisites, I know) then, theoretically, yes.

Will the expanding universe collapse?

That's a possibility; but the observational evidence shows that the Universe is expanding faster and faster - and it seems likely that this tendency will continue in the future. It seems likely that the Universe will continue expanding exponentially, doubling in size every 10 billion years or so. Thus, it doesn't seem as if it will collapse again.


What are the three predictions of your Universe?

The "Big Crunch" idea was that the expansion would eventually stop and the universe would collapse. All evidence today says no way. The "Yo-Yo" says the universe repeatedly expand, collpses and then expands again of a roughly 70 billion year cycle. There is no evidence for this. The "Big Rip" says the universe will simply expand forever, with other galaxies gradually getting so far away that they fade in the distance, and then stars burn out and everything gets cold and dark forever.


Any important question on physics?

Will the Universe continue expanding forever or will it collapse?
