Cycle of Stars

The increasing production of dark energy that Dr. Franklin Benjamin and Dr. Ally Mekur found fit the model of the cyclic universe exactly. The model postulates that the current universe begets the following universe, which begets the following universe, which begets the following universe, etc., unto infinity. But the dark energy was causing problems in the present one.Areas where dark energy density was greatest were experiencing a breakdown of space. The accompanying destruction and loss of lives would only get worse as this cycle sped to its end.Dr. Benjamin discovered how to stop the cycle but had a choice to make. And the magnitude of that choice was overwhelming. Change the natural order and destroy the cycling and all future universes but save lives in this one? Or do nothing and know that more will die? Ally called it "playing God". And Franklin was reluctant to play the game.
