The last star to shine.
When this star has shone it's last all that's left will be an army of black holes sucking up the last of the Cosmic debris.
This will then be the time of true darkness. But with no more food even the army will eventually evaporate and all that's left will be a void of sub atomic particles spread so thinly as to barely register as existence.
Time no longer has any meaning. But even here there is hope.
Sooner or later quantum flux will trigger a change in the laws of nature and the cycle will being again.
This is the true nature of things.
Science still has to figure out if it what we see now was simply sudden and came out of nothing, or grew out of the death of something prior. Kind of like a tree rotting and becoming fuel for new plant life.
I personally lean to a eternal cycle, but just not one that it magically caused by a super cognition. Just like we don't need a God or gods or deities to explain that the earth repeats it's cycles of seasons over and over.
I cannot see a trigger that leads to a big bang, not being the result of the collapse of a prior system. What I can say to a great certainty, for humans to think we are the center of everything is absurd and insulting intellectually.
