does the universe end anywhere? .?
End of Humanity – 10,000 years
End of Life – 500 million years – 5 billion years
End of the Earth – 7.5 billion years
End of the Sun – 7.5 billion – 1 trillion years
End of Cosmology – 3 Trillion Years from Now
End of Stars – 100 trillion years from now
The End of Regular Matter – 1030 years
End of Black Holes – 10100 Years
End of the Solar System
Even though the Sun will have burned out billions of years from now, the planets that weren’t consumed will remain. Perhaps even Earth will join that group. Certainly Jupiter, Saturn, the rest of the outer planets and the Kuiper belt objects will remain orbiting for eons.
A recently discovery, published in the journal Science, reported that astronomers had discovered a disk of rapidly rotating metallic material orbiting a white dwarf. Researchers built a simulation where they put hypothetical planets in orbit around a dying star, and found that the star’s death wreaked havoc on the stability of a star system. Changes in the mass of a star causes planets to collide, and rearrange their orbits. Some spiral into their star, while others are ejected into interstellar space.
Once all these new gravitational interactions are worked out, all that might remain of our solar system is the white dwarf remnant of our Sun and the rapidly rotating disk of planetary wreckage surrounding it. Everything else will be lost to interstellar space.
End of the Milky Way
Galaxies collide. All you have to do is look out into space with a telescope and see the fate that awaits our galaxy. In all directions we can see the interactions between the gravity of various galaxies. At first the encounters are violent; galaxies tear at each other, stripping off material, and generating huge swaths of star formation. The dormant supermassive black holes at their centres spring to live and become active galactic nuclei, gobbling up the newly delivered material.
Our future merger partner is barreling towards us right now: Andromeda. In approximately 2 billion years from now, our two galaxies will collide, and then pull apart. Then they’ll collide again and again until they settle down into a new, larger galaxy: Milkomedia. The twin supermassive black holes will orbit one another, and eventually merge together into an even more massive black hole.
Our position in the galaxy will change; we’ll probably be pushed out to the outer reaches of the galaxy’s halo – at least 100,000 light years from the centre. Since the Sun will still have billions of years left, some future form of life on Earth might be around to watch these events unfold.
The merger process will be complete approximately 7 billion years from now.
That’s not the end of the galaxy, though. It will still be an island in space, with stars orbiting a central core. Over a long period of time, though, estimated to be between 1019 1020 years. The galaxy will erode, with all the stars escaping into intergalactic space.
The End of Everything – 10100 years and beyond
When the last black hole evaporates, all that will remain in the Universe are photons of radiation, and elementary particles that escaped capture by black holes. The temperature of the entire Universe will reach a final temperature just above absolute zero.
Dark energy may play some future role, continuing the expansion of the Universe, accelerating each of these elementary particles and photons away from each other until they’re effectively cut off from one another. No future gravity will bring them together again.
Perhaps there will be another Big Bang someday. Perhaps the Universe is cyclical and the whole process will start up again.
Perhaps it won’t, and this bleak future of a cold, dead Universe is all that awaits us. It’s not happy, but it’s awe inspiring to consider the long future ahead, and helps us appreciate the vibrant age we live in today.

Their are two theories
theory one: The universe was created by the big bang which started out at one point and exploded into the universe as we know it today.The universe continues to expand so that theory say that the universe says that the universe does have and end that is constantly expanding outward.
theory two. according to one recent experiment involving light reflections, the universe is either infinite or curved so slightly that the most modern equipment can't detect the curve.

End of the Earth- Anywhere from 5 to 7 billion years from now, the sun will expand into a red giant, and Mercury and eventually Venus will be deystroyed. Earth will likely be destroyed when it reaches its peak and then it will explode. Mars has a tiny chance of meeting the same fate. However, by then, Humans will likely have colonised Mars and many other planets in the galaxy by then. Mars and the gas giants will be left revolving around a non existent star for billions, even trillions of years.
End of the Milky Way- In about 5 trillion years, the Milky Way will collide with Andromeda and form a Super Galaxy. The two black holes will orbit each other until eventually merging and forming a giant black hole.
End of the Milky Way/Andromeda Galaxy- In Approximately 50 trillion years, the whole super Galaxy will be engulfed by the large black hole in the centre.
End of the universe- In 100 trillion years. Star formation ends.

Your copy-and-paste left out a few details, and made many assumptions. The last two lines should be:
The End of Regular Matter – 10**30 years
End of Black Holes – 10**100 Years
The cyclic universe concept has no process or force (such as gravity) to pull the universe back together. Now that we've discovered that the rate of expansion of the universe is increasing.

Yes there is an edge to the matter making up the Universe....
but not the space containing it.
The "edge of the Universe" is the "Event Horizon" for an on going "spontaneous creation" of matter.
The "Event Horizon" is ever expanding.
What is contained on our side of this "Event Horizon" is a self sustaining sphere of energy, where energy and matter are drive by "a force of thermodynamics" back and forth to keep the void of space at a constant temperature.
Just thought I would visit the science room.

There will be no end to the universe, stars and regular matter. The universe is static and in a general state of equilibrium. There is no expanding space or "big bang". The universe is infinite in time time and space. No beginning, no ending. This documentary may enlighten you...

Uniontera poem is to ferrari what big bang theory is to porsche.
Just trust me and read my poem. There is an everything you want.
Hope it helps.
Uniontera number 11-1, hope it helps. This is your so-called dark energy.
Uniontera number 15, hope it helps. This is your so-called 2 dimension.
Existence is the time expressed by light itself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AN1jTwHUC7E
1. Arrow A is the laser work. (Same time work)
2. Arrow B is the reason of gravity. (also, Higgs boson individually / Different time work)
3. The rose line is the beginning light. (result from Bible)
4. The existence of different time. (result from relativity of light)
5. 2 dimension is not a space. (result from 2-axis, math)
6. Universe came from nothing. (result from No.5 / cf. Playing with bubbles)
6-1. A barrier[posititon] exist between the inner and outer bubbles. But universe do not have that barrier. (Cause of Inertia / Reason of Sun / Position of Antimatter / Origin of Fire / cf. Expansion)
6-2. Nothing is not a no existence. No existence is a zero dimension. There is two zero dimension. One has a position. The other doesn't have a position. These different positions were connected by something. That "something" is not a what but a way. (Cause of Light / cf. Ether)
7. Progress / Event / Probability is a time. (This is my trinity.)
8. Wave-particle duality of light, creation & evolution, uncertainty principle, etc. (result from No.7)
9. Coalescing of different time. (Cause of Rotation & Spin / Equator has plenty of time.)
10. Your so-called black hole is a wholly condensed time. (cf. Kerr spacetime)
11. The reason of "your so-called magnetic field". (result from step3 and 4)
11-1. The reason of "your so-called dark matter". (result from step3 to 4 / Energy-Mass duality / cf. Dark energy "step4 to 3")
12. The reason of "your so-called electric field". (result from the crack of time / Same time's crack is a different time's connection. / Cause of Static electricity)
13. Your so-called "space" is a crack of time. (result from No.12 / Cause of Lightning)
14. Boundary is a crack of space. (result from No.13 / Same space's crack is a different time's contact. / Cause of Superfluid / cf. Fractal)
15. Boundary is nothing. Your so-called hole is a boundary itself. Also, nothing is K=0 temperature. (result from No.14 / cf. Calabi-Yau, Hilbert space)
16. This is a wall of your so-called fire. (result from No.15) - copyright ⓒ uniontera
Our nonsense has come from one time. Uniontera is a key.
English is not my first language, sorry!
If it is difficult to understand, just remember & enjoy "Hand touching everything is a time". This is the only one result of uniontera.

Where did you get these ridiculous figures from?
Or did you just make them up?
If so check them out, end of matter 1000 years, end of everything 10100 years, end of sun 1 trillion years (1 000 000 000 000 yrs)
makes no sense.
The sun explodes in 5.4 billion years, that's all that's definite.

universe doe not ends, actually it expands each and every seconds in a very rapid way,in universe one energy is converted into another it cannot end it can Only be transformed.neither it is energy or it is a state it cannot be destroyed

its only theorized that humanity will end in 10000 years how do you know we will not survive we might even be so advanced that we have the power to make stars therfeore no destruction
