About this listen

The universe is not static—it’s expanding! But what does that really mean? In this episode, we explore how general relativity predicts the expansion of spacetime and how this discovery reshaped our understanding of the cosmos. From Edwin Hubble’s groundbreaking observations to the role of dark energy, we’ll break down how space itself stretches and why galaxies are moving apart. Could this expansion continue forever, or will the universe one day collapse? Join us as we unravel one of the biggest mysteries in modern physics.
