Contraction of universe gravity energy stored higs particle and released?
Was it closer to cylic model of 11 dimensions. Collision with our 4 dimension concept with other dimensions?
Other point hard to grasp with universe is where does it start and end.The concept of time is ours.Time is non existent; it is all at once.Time is tenseless; past , present , future are equally real.
As to begining and end of universe it is a moot point.
