  • Everything will end. Even the universe. But in a future so far away that it defies description, there will still be light and therefore a chance for life. It will be around White Dwarfs, the corpses of stars. But even they will fade one day..

      Well... Extrapolating that far ahead we wouldn't even be human anymore. But you're right, assuming we made it THAT far (which is really hard to imagine!) and became a Type IV Civilization... I guess we could do a lot of things. Tunnel to another Universe... Perhaps even create our own bubble Universe... And yes, transmute dead degenerate matter in black dwarfs back into hydrogen to kick off new star formation...
      As Type IV... We could practically do anything! But we currently got our work cut out for us... Stuck at Type 0.7x (or thereabouts) we are dangerously close to a threshold which will either transition us to Type I or... Type 0 (I.e. Extinction!)

      Well, it depends.
      The expansion of the Universe doesn’t really affect galaxies themselves(because I believe Kurzgesagt was talking about nearby stars), because they are held together by a gravitational force, which we believe is caused my dark energy or dark matter.
      In exchange, stars are close. The quickest way to get to Alpha Centauri would be through sails powered by ground-based laser propulsion, reaching Proxima b in around 20 years. This is so short, in the universal timescale, that we might have expanded beyond the Orion spur in a few thousand years.
      But, if you’re talking about stars in other galaxies, even travelling at the speed of light, it would take you billions of years to reach Andromeda, because of the expansion of the Universe.

Way, way before this humanity will have to deal with the death of the sun in 5 billion years, and before that with possible meteorite impacts, like the one that made the dinosaurs go extinct, and before that with the crazy climate changes the planet will go through from now until the death of the sun.

      ​@@Jeffy-331 I will start by saying that I, too, have a positive outlook on life. Having said that, I see about 5 bugs and can only envision the defeat of one of them:
      1.) biological aging -- possibly fixable
      2.) Lethal accidents and diseases. There's no such thing as safety and the longer you live the higher the cumulative chance of dying violently or of sickness, even without aging. As the duration of life approaches infinity, violent accidents become a virtual certainty, no matter how unlikely they are in a given period of time.
      3.) Food scarcity. If people keep being born and no-one dies of old age or accident, people will eventually die due to food scarcity. This is true even if we colonise space, because population would rise exponentially but the amount of space available only increases polynomially with time for any given speed of exploration.
      4.) Death of the sun. Nothing we can do about that except flee the solar system, but the same will happen in any other one.
      5.) Heat death of the universe.
      I will not rule out that there is an afterlife in a form not subject to laws of physics, but I have no reason to believe that there is any life after my death except that of other people. And that is something, isn't it? Love others, love future generations, and death ceases to be as much of a tragedy. And by the time they cease to exist for the above reasons, we won't be around to be bothered.

      I'd say this is the perfect time to be alive on Earth. Too far back there's so much war, genocides, disease and primitive technology. Too far forward and there's probably a brainwashed dystopian society, no people of their natural gender, and people with bad taste in music & unappreciative of the legends we love today

    • @TacoMastersAssociation

      This is absolutely the most perfect time to take up the opportunity to change society, so we could progress even further to a better tomorrow. Don't be afraid that you want change. Change is needed, anyways. We won't get anywhere unless the majority of everyone gets along. Besides, you can be the next person to push us an inch closer towards planetary and galactic travel. All it takes is one step.

      Whippybox_grHD! Lmao "bad taste in music". Do you think music is getting worse as time goes on? Because if that's the case, you're just lazy and not looking hard enough. As more people exist on Earth, more kinds of music from more sources will give way to much more variety and, inherently, more good music. Anyone who thinks that the popular Top 40 that people get the most shared exposure to is representative of the overall quality of all music being produced at that time is a fucking nostalgia-plagued dumbass.

      The problem with hawking radiation as an energy source is that only very small black holes emit it fast enough to be useful, and the smaller they are the faster they decay, so it's not a great long term solution. But it'd still make a great video.
