  • [Semi-OT] End of the Universe

    From Your Name@21:1/5 to All on Wed May 14 19:29:40 2025
    According to Doctor Who, the end of the universe occurs 100 trillion
    years in the future, more or less from now:
    100,000,000,000,000 in US numbers
    or 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 in proper British numbers

    BUT, scientists have recently recalculated when the end of the universe
    will occur, and it is much earlier than they had previously calculated.
    The universe will end in 1 quinvigintillion (a one followed by 78
    zeros) years from now:
    1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
    000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 in US numbers
    (Significantly more zeros in British numbers, but I don't know how many.)

    The Doctor Who writers were only out by a "small" amount. ;-)

    Of course, the Earth will be long long long gone by then - the Sun will
    swallow the Earth in a measley 7.59 billion years from now.

    10^12 to 10^14 years is how long the stars have left to live.


    Of course, the Earth will be long long long gone by then - the Sun will swallow the Earth in a measley 7.59 billion years from now.


    Thought it was 2.5 to 3 billion years from now when we're all burned to
    a crisp. Now you know why we all need to support Elon Musk.
