If we don't get off this rock in the next 150 years, I think we can kiss survival of our species goodbye.

On the 17th day of the 10th month, of the year 2103, at precisely 4:52PM.

Some people simply have too damned much time on their hands. Washing dishes or bussing tables or shoveling dirt and rocks 10 hours a day six days per week will cure that. You'll be so tired that you'll be forced to prioritize what you waste your glucose thinking about.

Honestly, if we don't blow ourselves into tiny little atomic bits in the next 100 years, I'll be astounded. Of course, I'll be dead before those 100 years are over anyway, so it doesn't bother me all that much.

Mankind will cease to exist eventually.
The universe will either expand forever and no mass will create more stars or it will go into a big crunch and new big bang.

Don't get me wrong this is trillions of earth years. I seriously doubt any human eyes will be around to see it.

I forgot, actually protons theoretically have a half life. So when they start decaying into gluons and stuff that won't be good.
There's another reason we can't last forever.

It will all be over as "it was forseen that the city would be wiped out by the wind and exiled from the memory of men at the precise moment when he would finish deciphering the parchments, and that everything written on them was unrepeatable since time immemorial and forever more, because races condemned to solitude did not have a second opportunity on earth."

From my favorite book ever...anyone else know what it is??

What a wonderful attitude.

I'm glad everybody doesen't think like that, our planet would be a sad place indeed otherwise.

You are assuming that the "universe" consists only of this single expanding hypersphere we currently inhabit.. If there are others, it may be possible to go to them.

That's a possibility astaroth, maybe we can escape to another universe if this one does indeed have a finite lifespan.

Do you have any faith that mankind will branch out to other Solar Systems encompassing much of the galaxy and possibly further. Or not.

Do you believe Einstein, that light is indeed the limiting factor of speed. If so that will greatly hinder such aspirations.

Or do you believe Star Trek, where warp speed is the norm.
