1
How will the universe die?
2
There are three big theories,
3
and this one just got some brand new evidence.
4
So we know that the universe isn't just expanding,
5
it's expanding faster and faster.
6
We can see galaxies moving away from us,
7
and the farther they get, the faster they go.
8
If that keeps going, the universe could expand so fast that gravity can't hold anything together anymore,
9
and everything starts getting ripped apart.
10
That's the first possible end,
11
also called the Big Rip.
12
But some scientists think it won't keep going.
13
At some maximum size, gravity will start smushing everything back together again,
14
crunching it down like the Big Bang but in reverse.
15
That's the big crunch.
16
But this third theory says that everything will keep expanding but stop accelerating,
17
meaning that everything in the universe will spread out,
18
thinning and cooling until it can no longer sustain life or light.
19
That's called the big freeze.
20
Don't worry, all of these are at least this many years away.
21
And all of these theories depend on just one unknown number,
22
the energy in empty space.
23
So right now, scientists are studying this brand new data set to learn more.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
