Is the universe infinite and will it last forever?

The video discusses a project aimed at understanding the universe's expansion and its potential to slow down and collapse due to gravity. Initially expected to take three years, the project took ten years to conclude. Contrary to expectations, the findings revealed that the universe is not slowing down but is instead accelerating, challenging existing physics theories.

What was the initial question the speaker aimed to answer through their work with supernovae?

• The possibility of life on other planets

• If the universe is infinite and will last forever

• How stars are formed in distant galaxies

• Whether the universe is expanding at a constant rate

What was the expected duration of the supernova project?

• Five years

• One year

• Ten years

• Three years

What surprising discovery was made about the universe's expansion?

• It was collapsing

• It was accelerating

• It had stopped expanding

• It was slowing down significantly

How did the unexpected findings affect the scientific community's understanding of physics?

• It disproved the theory of relativity

• It had no impact on current theories

• It confirmed existing theories

• It required a reevaluation of physics

How long did it actually take to obtain the results of the supernova project?

• Three years

• Seven years

• Five years

• Ten years
