Question about the oscillatory universe theory.

Asked by jaketheripper (2779points) November 6th, 2009

Ok maybe this is a completely stupid and uninformed question but here I go…
Why would there be enough energy to explode when matter is at its closest and gravity is at its strongest, but then when the matter is completely dispersed and gravity is weaker It causes another crunch?
If there was enough gravity to cause a crunch wouldn’t it maintain that dense state indefinitely?
