The End of Everything by Katie Mack – Audiobook Online
The End of Everything by Katie Mack is a thought-provoking exploration of the end of our universe. Mack examines various theories and scenarios for how the universe might ultimately come to an end. She covers topics such as the Big Bang, black holes, dark matter, and the potential for a “big rip” or a “big freeze” in the distant future.
Mack’s writing is accessible and engaging, making complex scientific concepts understandable for a general audience. She also delves into the philosophical implications of the end of everything, such as the question of whether there is any meaning or purpose to our existence in an ultimately doomed universe.
Overall, The End of Everything is both informative and inspiring, leaving readers with a better understanding of the universe and our place within it.

The End of Everything
- (Astrophysically Speaking)
- Narrated by: Gabra Zackman, Katie Mack
From one of the most dynamic rising stars in astrophysics, an “engrossing, elegant” (The New York Times) look at five ways the universe could end, and the mind-blowing lessons each scenario reveals about the most important concepts in cosmology.
We know the universe had a beginning. With the Big Bang, it expanded from a state of unimaginable density to an all-encompassing cosmic fireball to a simmering fluid of matter and energy, laying down the seeds for everything from black holes to one rocky planet orbiting a star near the edge of a spiral galaxy that happened to develop life as we know it. But what happens to the universe at the end of the story? And what does it mean for us now?
Dr. Katie Mack has pondered these questions since she was a young student, when her astronomy professor informed her that the universe could end at any moment, in an instant. This revelation set her on the path towards theoretical astrophysics. Now, with lively wit and humour, she’ll take us on a mind-boggling excursion through five of the universe’s possible finals: The Big Crunch, Death Due Heat, Massive Tear, Vacuum Decomposition (crash can happen at any time!), and Bounce. Guiding us through cutting-edge science and key concepts in quantum mechanics, cosmology, string theory, and more, The End of Everything is an incredibly fun, surprisingly upbeat ride to reach the farthest we know.
Basically she is delightful. Very fun overview of possible end (or cyclical) scenarios for the universe. Excellent physics writing for a layman.
