Scientist's playthings, Cause the end not just of earth, But of our universe.
This is one of two quite different end of world scenarios in my Echoes of the Mind's Eye short story collection. This novelette is at once the darkest of my short stories precisely because it is quite plausible. It posits a completely new theory of cosmology that explains both the birth and death of universes in the multiverse (or omniverse, my own coined phrase) based on the role that black holes play in the creation. and extinction of an endless number of bing and colossal crunches of universes both large and small. If you would like to hear me read a free preview of about half of the short story, you can do so at https://open.spotify.com/episode/2UaNRr1aRdran3DEcidYu9?si=NPJbA-uIShe3JSyQWJb87Q
