The video explores the theory of conformal cyclic cosmology, which suggests that the universe's end resembles the Big Bang when viewed from a conformal perspective. It introduces conformal geometry, focusing on the similarity of triangles, where angles, not size, determine similarity. The concept of eons, infinite cycles of the universe, is also discussed, with a conformal picture representing these cycles.
