    Human beings are everywhere. With settlements on every continent, we can be found in the most isolated corners of Earth’s jungles, oceans and tundras. Our impact is so profound, most scientists believe humanity has left a permanent mark on Earth’s geological record. So what would happen if suddenly, every human on Earth disappeared? Dan Kwartler investigates.

      @@alexdavis-mann8513 if I recall, the cooling system of a reactor automaticaly triggers, "killing" the head of the rod. A nuclear reactor is using fission, but fission isn't something ENTIRELY self-sustainable, it needs to be triggered every once in a while to cause the rod to head up, essentialy making a nuclear reactor able to "cool down" and stop working.
      For instance, Chernobyl, its still radioactive, sealed inside a huge lead "tomb" after they managed to drain the water that could've leaked into the superheated reactor and cause an explosive expansion.
      Nuclear powerplants nowadays are designed to never go BOOM, worst-case scenario is a meltdown that causes a leak of radioactivity, and I think even that have its own killswitch. Hence decades later all we had was Fukushima because of an earthquake that killed the cooling system. Meltdown ensued, no Boom.

      Interesting thought. To make it a bit more interesting, if they discovered Mount Rushmore, or any other remnants of intelligent life that remains, but they discover long enough after we are gone that it is clear no intelligent life has been present for hundreds of thousands of years, they would have to consider the fact that possibly the "aliens" have moved on to some other planet. They would have to consider the possibility that "we" never truly resided here but discovered earth, played around a bit, and moved on. In other words, just like them.

If an asteroid hits earth it needs to be huge enough to end humans everywhere ,but in this case it would end earth too,same goes with nuclear war ,if it can kill every single human then it would destroy earth completely,so in both cases earth dies with us.

      Humans, while holding a light switch: Yeah, sort of.
      Jokes aside, I’m guessing they’re referring to light pollution. If every human disappeared, every light would eventually be turned off.
      Right now, even during the night, cities can be seen glowing from space. And even if an entire city in one country is shut down without electricity, there’ll be other countries in a different time zone with their lights still on.
      So when humans disappear, light bulbs will run out and the Earth will “finally go dark.”

      The most efficient way to control our unsustainable population of nearly 8 billion without ruining the environment would be to release a plague. Release a superbug that is resistant to vaccines and everything. The bubonic plague wiped out over 2/3 of Europe's population. The world's population would be sustainable again if a new plague killed 2/3 of the world indiscriminately.

      To be honest, this could totally happen. Just simple evolution over a long period of time. It doesn't _have to_ happen, by any means - just look at how long dinosaurs were around and how intelligent they didn't become - but it could.

    You’re an alien: your people have just landed on a new planet inhabited with strange unintelligent life forms and rich plant life! You’ve been issued a new life on this planet, and have decided to explore this strange new alien world. After a while of hiking, climbing, and exploring, you finally find something that sends a chill down your spine. A towering structure, a mass carving of four beings you don’t understand. They’ve been worn, eroded, etc. and you realize, maybe you aren’t alone here.
