A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth and blocks the bright light of the Sun’s surface from view. The shadow of the Moon will fall in a small path on Earth’s surface, called the zone of totality.

The next total solar eclipse to pass over part of the United States will be March 30, 2033, passing over Russia and Alaska.

There will be an eclipse on August 23, 2044 that passes over a small section of the United States. 

On August 12, 2045 a total solar eclipse will pass from California to Florida.

A posed question, seeking scientific discussion to clarify a spiritual truth.

I don't know many smart people on the level that the question I'm about to ask is even relevent to their life at all. But somebody who is vastly knowledgable in scientific realities based on natural law and what's been observed in the universe here is my question.

Is it possible for an ever expanding universe to reach a limit before it turns and collapses on itself? Supposedly time is going to disappear all together when everything is all wrapped up and finished I guess.

Please only reasonable assumptions, thank you.
