Among the many theories explaining the life cycle of our Universe, the "Conformal Cyclic Cosmology" is of particular interest. Its author is the famous physicist Roger Penrose, who is on a par with such personalities as, for example, Stephen Hawking.

The theory tells us that our world exists in a continuous cycle of birth and death: that is, our universe had descendants, and after it dies, a new universe will appear in its place. So how will the end of our universe occur?

A scientist believes that in the distant future, all the particles of our Universe that have mass will gradually be pulled into huge black holes. Gradually, the extremely expanded universe will consist only of massless particles - photons - and black holes. But this will not last forever: because of Hawking's radiation, any black hole will gradually evaporate. It takes billions of years, but the end is predetermined.

According to Roger Penrose, with the disappearance of the last black hole, there will be no object left in the Universe, relative to which measurements can be made - that is, the very concept of space and time will disappear.

The characteristics of the future Universe will not differ from the singularity - the very point from which the Big Bang occurred and our world arose. As soon as this happens, a new universe will emerge from the singularity, and with it a new space-time.

Not only Penrose's name alone makes one pay attention to this theory - recent discoveries of scientists have presented certain evidence of correctness of conformal cyclic cosmology. The fact is that conformal cyclic cosmology assumes possible presence in our Universe of traces from previous Universe. Such traces can be left by the only objects left at the end of the life cycle of the previous Universe - supermassive black holes. If they can somehow be detected, then only by studying the distribution of relic radiation.

It is assumed that exactly in these places in the previous Universe there was evaporation of black holes with the release of so much energy into space, that echoes of those events we - the inhabitants of the next world - can observe until now.

So far, the world community is waiting for additional confirmation of the discovered structures, and if the data are confirmed, the scientists' discovery may overturn the whole modern view of life and evolution of the Universe.
