Why is it that you think all the stars will be gone? It seems that they are born and die almost like living beings. Matter just changes form... decaying is not becoming nothing, it is just a process of changing the energy in matter into a different form. Even if scientists interfere, the energy will still exist, somehow, in some form.
What do you consider "the end"?
