  2. Age of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_universe

    In physical cosmology, the age of the universe is the time elapsed since the Big Bang.Astronomers have derived two different measurements of the age of the universe: [1] a measurement based on direct observations of an early state of the universe, which indicate an age of 13.787 ± 0.020 billion years as interpreted with the Lambda-CDM concordance model as of 2021; [2] and a measurement based ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_timeline_from...

    This is a timeline of the Universe from the Big Bang to the heat death scenario. The different eras of the universe are shown. The heat death will occur in around 1.7×10 106 years, if protons decay .

  4. Ultimate fate of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_fate_of_the_universe

    However, only a portion of the universe would be destroyed by the Big Slurp while most of the universe would still be unaffected because galaxies located further than 4,200 megaparsecs (13 billion light-years) away from each other are moving away from each other faster than the speed of light while the Big Slurp itself cannot expand faster than ...

  5. Chronology of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_the_universe

    The chronology of the universe describes the history and future of the universe according to Big Bang cosmology. Research published in 2015 estimates the earliest stages of the universe's existence as taking place 13.8 billion years ago, with an uncertainty of around 21 million years at the 68% confidence level. [1]

  6. Timeline of the far future - Wikipedia

    The estimated time for all nucleons in the observable universe to decay, if the hypothesized proton half-life takes its smallest possible value (8.2 × 10 33 years). [ 144 ] [ note 4 ] 10 36 –10 38 (1–100 undecillion)

  7. Heat death of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_death_of_the_universe

    Some large black holes in the universe are predicted to continue to grow up to perhaps 10 14 M ☉ during the collapse of superclusters of galaxies. Even these would evaporate over a timescale of up to 10 106 years. [17] After that time, the universe enters the so-called Dark Era and is expected to consist chiefly of a dilute gas of photons and ...

  8. Future of an expanding universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Future_of_an_expanding_universe

    Given our assumed half-life of the proton, nucleons (protons and bound neutrons) will have undergone roughly 1,000 half-lives by the time the universe is 10 43 years old. This means that there will be roughly 0.5 1,000 (approximately 10 −301 ) as many nucleons; as there are an estimated 10 80 protons currently in the universe, [ 41 ] none ...

  9. Cosmic Calendar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_Calendar

    The Cosmic Calendar is a method to visualize the chronology of the universe, scaling its currently understood age of 13.8 billion years to a single year in order to help intuit it for pedagogical purposes in science education or popular science.
