The article discusses the scientific concept of the false vacuum, suggesting that our universe might be in a temporary, unstable energy state that could potentially lead to its sudden destruction through a process called vacuum decay, which challenges the assumption that the laws of nature are constant and reliable.
A recent study suggests that the universe may disintegrate much sooner than previously thought, potentially within 10⁷⁸ years, by extending Hawking radiation theory to other celestial objects like neutron stars, challenging long-held beliefs about cosmic longevity.
A new study suggests the universe may end much sooner than previously thought, estimating a timeline of around 10^78 years due to quantum decay processes affecting dense stellar remnants like white dwarfs and neutron stars, which slowly lose mass through Hawking radiation, leading to a gradual cosmic fade-out.
