But where does all the energy go?
The volume of the universe is increasing at a large rate as the most distant objects we can detect are moving away from us at a high % of the speed of light.
The mass and energy of the universe are rapidly being diluted into an ever larger amount of space.
The cosmic background radiation is 2.73 degrees above absolute zero, and was much higher in the past, and will continue to diminish into the far future.
In some extremely remote era of the universe, the mass and energy will be so diluted as to be all but undetectable, and the universe will continue to expand to even larger size.
The universe, by means of it's expansion, is essentially erasing itself.
I'm getting depressed . . . .
Why? What does the fate of the universe, after you are long dead, have to do with you? Right now, you seem to be a pretty good guy. That is not altered by what happens after you are long dead.
