Answer:

As the Universe expands, however, it not only gets less dense, but the particles within it get less energetic. Because the fabric of space itself is what's expanding, it affects every photon traveling through that space.It's only a matter of time, then, until all the photons in the Universe drop below a critical energy threshold.
