That's not proven physics, just speculation. There are no answers at this point, especially regarding end of the universe.
Also, infinite universe is not necessarily the same thing as a growing one.
For all we know all we see could be some local quirk of spacetime or whatever that creates a weird projection. I would at least wait for a return data from a probe in nearby star system's before accepting that yes, that's probably how it actually is, at least in our larger neighborhood.
- krapp 10y agoUnless the laws of thermodynamics and the speed of light are wrong, there is only a finite region of spacetime with a finite amount of energy that we will ever be able to interact with. Infinite expansion would require expending infinite energy, and that's just not possible. Not even "proven physics" supports an argument that an economy can "grow exponentially, forever."
