I like the second option, but I don't really have an opinion on this. o_o They're all equally plausible to me.

Theories say it will expand, stop, then go back to it's original size. Canned Earth anyone? EDIT Think it was called "the big crunch" or something. Kinda found the name funny

I think it will expand and then just slow down and stop. Hopefully it won't contract.

The universe is already infinitely expansive.

Well, if you think about it, scientists say it's a infinite expansion of nothingness; then again it couldn't be measured in a way so.... I dunno. But, I know that I made the universe!

[quote] ElJefe : The universe is already infinitely expansive. [/quote] What do you mean infinitely expansive? At this very moment the universe is expanding, sure, but the question is whether it will keep expanding forever or collapse. Space is finite.

It will expand infinitely, at a constant speed, until the expansion is so great, that the entire universe reaches absolute zero and exists in a state of frozen time for all eternity.

Furthermore, if you believe one of the first two options of the poll, then for you, space really is infinite. But we're all divided on which theory to believe.
