Davetrials Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 What are you views on the end of the world?, what do you think is going to happen, what happens next? I like reading peoples views on things like this unless its turns into ANOTHER! religion post, please dont let this happen :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cant_ride Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 because I believe so strongly in science, I'd have to go with the most popular belief that in however many billions of years th sun will get all arsey and decide to blow itself up. but if you mean the end of the world of people ( sounds a bit LOTR :P ) then I think we'll probably end up killing each other before any kind of natural disaster has a chance to do it for us. This is if there arent some big changes in the world in the future. oli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyroo Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 (edited) I too think the human race will have long killed itself off before the world ends. It'll probably be a very slow process, with the sun cooling down, and all life on earth gradually wasting away. Then the sun will become a white dwarf or something and then all the life left that didnt need light or heat will be burnt to a crisp. All the water on Earth will boil away, along with the atmosphere, leaving a big barren rock. Edited February 2, 2005 by andyroo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMonkey Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 We could move to a new or many new planets. So we may change as a species so don't say we will kill each other just yet. Although it's bloody likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil james 2 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 rising sea level.....rising quite a bit every year due to the cie caps melting, this will cause more tsunamis etc and natural disasters, eventually killing everyone off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do then we can say bibi to trials :P :P :P :P. Moon BMX would be fun though, think of all the antigravity crater bowls. :P Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless this world and its people change its ways or solutions are found then I say give it 300 -500years (gotta give myself a good margin of error) and the world will be no one.

Bondy Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 (edited) Well the end of our world will eventually be destroyed no matter what because our star (the sun) will eventually burn out, when it turns into a red giant it increases about 10times its size which will engulf the earth in a huge ball of energy and heat destroying earth, but the likeliness of the human race still being alive will be slim anyway (Y) if the red giant doesnt finish us off, not to worry the sun will eventually turn into a black hole thats when everything will be a bit screwed, black holes act the opposite to white holes, instead of chucking eveything out it sucks everything in, so quickly even light finds it hard to escape them :sick: the end of the universe i beleive will end either by the universe cooling down as its started cooling down over the last 15billion years its been contiunally cooling down anyway so that could destory everything or theres the view that eveything will end by colliding wtih each other, as the universe is expanding that one day it will have to eventually stop expanding then they beleive it will contract and everything will go back in on itself and destroy itself...oor people people the universe will never stop expanding and it will go on for an infinite amout of time (A) sounds like fun, all we can do is speculate anyway we will be long dead (Y) Edited February 2, 2005 by Bondy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyroo Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 (edited) Is our star called Sol or am I thinking of something else? EDIT: of usually has an "f" in it Edited February 2, 2005 by andyroo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe ← yes you are right :"> it will only turn into a white hole/dwarf, also after the sun turns into a red giant everything will dry up and burn away basically leaving earth looking a bit like mars (Y)" Also if any of this for some reason doesnt kill everything, there is also belief that our galaxy 'milky way' and our closest neighboured galaxy 'Andromeda' will eventually collide and merge into each other creating one single galaxy (Y) This would then change everything, we are only able to maintain life here on earth because we just happened to be positioned in the solay system where we are a certain distance from the sun and lots of other factors, so if anything was to be merged into another galaxy not only are we colliding with plenty of other stars and planets but we just wouldnt be able to live basically :D well it would be veeeeeery unlikely (Y) Edited February 3, 2005 by Bondy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
