How Many Do You Think?

The Universe. It is simply unique. But which one is this one? Were there any before now? Let's think about it!

The Big Bang, a cataclysmic event which created the Universe and along with it all the beauty we can see. Galaxies, nebulas, stars... All the most admirable of sights! And still, the Universe is changing, increasing in size and shape. Mutating, as to say. But will it ever stop increasing? Will it ever shrink? We believe so. The Big Crunch, also a cataclysmic event, will result in another so called "sphere" of matter, term I have used before to describe the earlier condition of our Universe.
The Big Crunch theory states that if a certain percentage of the original amount of matter and energy (meaning this the density of the Universe) still persists, the Universe will shrink, thus restarting the process.

So, considering the Big Crunch theory, we can ask ourselves about how many Universes were there before the current one. And there might be many more in a very distant future. Possibilities are immense, and together with "Three Universes Beyond", we can picture events like never before!
