End of the universe

The end of the universe was an event that took place far off into the future in which the universe, or N-Space, collapsed in on itself due to being a closed system and entropy constantly building up. It was also known as "Event Two", (PROSE: The Infinity Doctors) the "Big Crunch" (PROSE: Timewyrm: Apocalypse, Millennial Rites, Sometime Never..., The Big Crunch) the end of time, (TV: Listen, Hell Bent) and the "Blue Shift". (PROSE: Timewyrm: Revelation, Special Occasions: 2. Do You Love Anyone Enough?)

According to Straxus, travelling to the end of the universe was forbidden to the Time Lords. (AUDIO: The Great War)

Interference with fixed points in time had the potential to endanger entire universes. (TV: The Wedding of River Song) In one alternate timeline in which this occurred, a portent of the end of the universe was the appearance of stars being closer in the sky than they were supposed to, a result of time and space contracting. (AUDIO: The Death of Captain Jack)

Projected dates
Long before 1981, the universe had already passed the point of total collapse. Having discovered this, the Logopolitans created Charged Vacuum Emboitments which opened N-Space into other universes, notably E-Space, allowing entropy out of N-Space and into other universes. Though Logopolis was destroyed in 1981, a single CVE was rebooted and continued to feed entropy from N-Space into E-Space. (TV: Logopolis)

The end of the universe was projected to occur in varied times, including the years 60,000,000,000 AD, (AUDIO: Zagreus) 100,000,000,000,000 AD (TV: Utopia) and, in an alternate universe, 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (One hundred nonillion, 1032) AD. (PROSE: The Infinity Doctors)

The Mandelbrot Set informed the Grey Man and Bernice Summerfield that, due to the actions of Gabriel and Tanith in 1994, the universe would now end "several metacenturies" earlier than projected. (PROSE: Falls the Shadow)

Near misses
In 1981, nearly ended the universe when he disrupted the Logopolitans' Block Transfer Computations which closed the CVEs they created. As a result, an entropy wave formed which caused heat death as it spread through the universe. The Fourth Doctor prevented the total destruction of N-Space by reopening the last remaining CVE which dissipated this accumulated entropy by releasing it into E-Space. (TV: Logopolis)

Dimensional transference was a theoretical phenomenon caused by a black light explosion that would threaten the stability of the entire universe. Intrigued by the uniqueness of this, Drathro allowed his black light converter to fail before he was stopped by the Sixth Doctor. (TV: The Mysterious Planet)

The collision of two versions of the TARDIS piloted by the Fifth and Tenth Doctors respectively had the potential to open up a black hole strong enough to swallow the entire universe. However, this was averted by the Tenth Doctor, who remembered how to do so from the perspective of his fifth incarnation. (TV: Time Crash)

Donna Noble prevented the Daleks from eradicating all things, in both N-Space and the rest of creation, using their reality bomb. (TV: Journey's End) The Tenth Doctor later stopped the Time Lords from transcending into creatures of pure consciousness, as a means of escaping the end of the universe they tried to cause via the Ultimate Sanction. (TV: The End of Time)

The universe was put at risk after the end of the Long Song, as Akhaten awoke and attempted to consume all of existence. With the help of Clara Oswald and her leaf, the Eleventh Doctor was able to put Akhaten to sleep for good. (TV: The Rings of Akhaten)

When the Thirteenth Doctor learned that she was the Timeless Child and had many incarnations before her "first", her memories of which had been redacted following her service to a Time Lord organisation called the Division, (TV: The Timeless Children) she went searching for any trace of her past that she could find. (TV: The Halloween Apocalypse) Tecteun, who was once the foster parent of the Child and had been the one to discover the secret of regeneration in her first incarnation, had since become the de facto leader of the Division since the destruction of Gallifrey by. She engineered a spatial event called the Flux to destroy the universe and protect the existence of the Division from the Doctor's "hounding". (TV: Survivors of the Flux) Suspecting that it may not be enough, however, she also "reintroduced" the Ravager siblings, Swarm and Azure to act as a "temporal poison", (TV: Once, Upon Time) who went on to disrupt the Temple of Atropos by disintegrating two of the Mouri, causing time to run wild (TV: War of the Sontarans) and unleashing the Time Force across the universe in an event called the Great Disruption. (TV: Once, Upon Time) The universe was saved by the Doctor, who thwarted the Flux by throwing her TARDIS in front of it, (TV: The Halloween Apocalypse) and fixed the Temple of Atropos by disguising two Mouri within a Passenger form. (TV: Once, Upon Time) Eventually Swarm and Azure seized Division Control and sought to release a second and final Flux event; however, realising that the Flux was made of anti-matter, which could be slowed by matter, the Doctor used one of the Ravagers' Passengers to "hoover" up the Flux, saving the universe from total destruction. (TV: The Vanquishers)

In an alternate timeline where the Cybermen conquered all of time and space, in the final days of the universe, Rassilon and the Cybermen, after invading Gallifrey, nearly ended the universe by harvesting regenerative energy from captured Time Lords via looms and feeding it into the Eye of Harmony. Rassilon intended to rebirth the universe and become the god of the new reality, however the Cybermen betrayed him immediately afterwards, their Cyber-Controller revealing the Cybermen's plan to forge the new universe into the "Age of the Cyberiad", a universe dominated by an ultimate evolution of Cybermen from its very beginning. They were defeated by the Twelfth Doctor and Rassilon, who used the regenerative energy stored inside the Eye of Harmony, combined with the Cyberiad's existence across all of time and space, to revert the universe back to its form before Rassilon encountered the Cybermen after his exile by the Doctor. (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen)

Actual ends
The Kovarian Chapter of the Silence (TV: The Time of the Doctor) caused the universe to undergo total event collapse when they destroyed the Doctor's TARDIS, causing every star to explode at every moment in history. (TV: The Pandorica Opens) The Eleventh Doctor was able to "reboot" the universe using a restoration field. (TV: The Big Bang)

The Silence, again trying to kill the Doctor, trapped River Song in a space suit at Lake Silencio, a still point in time, where she would be made to shoot the Doctor. Refusing to do so, however, River altered a fixed point in time, causing all of time to occur simultaneously in a "bubble of time" and the outside universe to collapse. The damage was undone when the Doctor and River made contact during their wedding, saving the universe and restoring the proper flow of time in the process. Unknown to everyone except River, the Doctor actually survived their encounter by using the Teselecta to mimic his appearance. He then erased himself from databases across the universe, and laid low to avoid detection by the Silence. (TV: The Wedding of River Song)

In an altered timeline in which John Hart became King of the British Empire, he inadvertently caused the end of the universe by allowing Jack Harkness, a fixed point in time, to die after he used distilled rift energy to rob him of his immortality. As a result, John found that everyone had disappeared bar himself, trapped in a universe of his own making while history, as Jack put it, went back to "how it should be." (AUDIO: The Death of Captain Jack)

In an aborted timeline, the universe was consumed by an entropy wave unleashed by. When the wave finally consumed the surviving incarnations of the Master it caused a paradox, as the wave was the Master’s final form, which erased these events. (AUDIO: Masterful)

However, she eventually left with Clara Oswald to drop the Doctor off in Nevada, and then to take Clara back to Gallifrey "the long way round." (TV: Hell Bent) Romana regenerated into their fourth incarnation on a world orbiting the last sun in the universe. (PROSE: Tomb of Valdemar)

Somewhere beyond Gallifrey, an asteroid colony of Cybermen continued to survive even in the universe's final days. Sometime after being exiled from Gallifrey, found the Cybermen's colony and, inspired by their resilience to survive in a dead universe, assisted them in a mission to conquer all of time and space, and ultimately, create a new universe from the ruins of N-Space. This alternate timeline was eventually erased by the Twelfth Doctor and Rassilon, after the Cybermen betrayed the latter. (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen)

A book about the history of the universe claimed that, mere moments before the universe reached its heat death, all that was left was the “starless void” space had become, several scattered individuals who had immortality, and Gallifrey.
