Don't most astrophysicists now predict some "end of the line" - an end to it all? Not just the death of things, but the annihilation of everything. Some great contraction, or collapse.

So complete that, perhaps, for all intents and purposes, it never really did. (attrib: F.L. Vanderson) . Mort W. Lumsden
