Perhaps we are already in a contraction phase. Perhaps we are in a
continuous expansion/contraction phase. We observe that the universe
is expanding because we see stars moving away. But we "see" stars
because they are young enough to still be light emitting. But what
happens when a star burns out? It becomes dark. If stars have, say, a
15 billion year life then all stars we observe are younger than that
and so they are still burning. But perhaps there are stars which are
older and have already burned out. They are "dark" stars and cannot be
observed. At the outer edge of the universe maybe those dark stars
have slowed and stopped and have reversed direction. We cannot observe
this because they are dark. But perhaps there is already evidence this
has happened. Assuming that these dark outer stars have slowed and
stopped, then there must be an enormous number of these stars at the
outer edge. This might explain why visible stars near the outer edge
are accelerating outwardly.
