No. It's generally believed that the universe has insufficient mass density to slow or halt its expansion (and in fact, there's some evidence that the rate of expansion is actually increasing due to "dark energy", which is a slightly more academically acceptable way of saying "we don't know what").

Excellent answer!

The Universe (our universe) will probably end in a «Big RIP» or a «Big Freeze» scenario, after the «Dark Era and Photon Age», about 10100 years from now.

Please rememer that after the «Dark Era» age, what happens after this is speculative.

There could even occur a new «Big Bang», supereons after the «Dark Era».

Or else the «String Theory» is correct, and our universe is a «membane», or «Brane», and may collide with another «brane» sooner, creating a new universe, God nows what type of universe would be created...

What is a close universe?

The universe may be: 1) "open", which means it will continue to expand forever but at a decreasing rate. 2) "flat", which means it will eventually stop expanding but never reverse. 3) "closed", which means the universe will expand to a maximum size and then collapse in upon itself in a reversal of the big bang. The total mass-density of the universe determines which scenario will be realized. At a critical mass-density, the universe is flat. Some research has drawn scientists to believe the expansion of universe is actually accelerating. That means that the universe may actually be expanding more and more rapidly, due to a force called "dark energy". The existence of this dark energy would complicate all of the above scenarios.


How can you tell if there's more than one universe?

UniversesNo one can surely answer that, but some scientists believe that there are more than one universe. They call this multiverse.

What are some prevalent scientific attitudes and common values of scientists?

Scientists want to understand the universe in which we live, and respect honesty and knowledge. Scientists believe that the universe can be described mathematically and that it operates on the basis of natural law rather than on the basis of magic. Scientists value cooperation among scientists, so that knowledge can be shared and will advance more rapidly. Scientists believe that observation of reality takes precedence over traditional belief or established dogma.
