The End

[khdarkwolf]

Ani... It kinda sounds like you combined everyone's theory xD

Here a question though, what is on the other side of a black hole? Just wondering could something go through a black hole and still survive? If so maybe a black hole wouldn't be the end.

[theGorus]

The end of earth is most likely going to happen by a meteor, if not, the whole Milky Way galaxy is expected to end in a few million years due to it colliding with another galaxy.

As for mankind itself, it will be surprising if humans still exist in a few thousand years.

[khdarkwolf]

Eh, meteors burn up in the atmosphere most of the time, it would have to be pretty big to end humanity. Now if the Moon fell, then I'd be worried(or play Majora's Mask or something lol)

[theGorus]

First of all, Moon falling on earth is impossible and can't happen.
Secondly, a huge enough meteor or asteroid could easily make it through the atmosphere and crash with such impact that it would knock the earth out of its orbit, there's actually a few of those heading for earth, but they have only a small <0.01% chance of hitting earth.

[khdarkwolf]

Well, I was mostly making a pun with the Moon falling =/

And since there is such a small chance for a meteor to even hit, the chances of it destorying the earth are dropped

[theGorus]

While it is surely a small chance, the thing is that if it does hit, it is indeed the end of the earth.
And sorry for misunderstanding your moon pun... moon pun.. lol sounds funny when you say it out loud.

[khdarkwolf]

Again, depends on which would hit. What ever hits could be so small it only destorys a few houses =/

I'm going bring up my beliefs a bit, so if you don't want to hear, don't read it.

In my beliefs a meteor actually will strike the earth, however it does not destory it, it causes a third of the water to become bitter and undrinkable. This is part of the Tribulation the earth will endure(according to my beliefs so no need to bash me on this)

And yes, saying Moon pun out loud is funny xD

[theGorus]

Yeah, as always, I forgot to specify that I'm talking only about huge asteroids which would knock the earth out of the orbit and destroy the whole planet with the shockwave. Anyway, I'm done here, unless I find something to comment on.

I'm not sure what you mean by universe, considering people are talking about just the earth, and the entire universe we live in as of current. I'll just go in order from smallest to biggest.

Earth: Most likely the Sun. Chances of being hit by blasts from outer space radiation are possible, but that's irrelevant. I'm personally hoping the Sun implodes as some do without becoming a Red-Giant, (it'd at least give us a chance to move closer to the white dwarf... maybe Venus or Mercury as new Earths...), too bad it's unlikely.

Solar System & Galaxy: Either a black hole or a collision with another galaxy. Only things I'm aware of that could tear us apart. It'd be pretty fun to watch as your galaxy become a deadly and relatively short lasting fireworks show.

Universe: I'm not sure it'll completely rip apart, nor slam back together, but if it has to end it'll probably be from the rubber-banding.

Just my thoughts, I respect all of your opinions (some very interesting ones have been proposed).

Heres somethings that i think that are intersting. According to a educational video ive watched, the edge of the red giant version of the sun is supposed to go halfway through earth, not engulf it. And apparently, a superheated quasar is supposed to be able to get through a black hole, im not pppositive though.

OR, what if the moon crashes into earth with a super-angry-creepy face on it!!!

I'll track down Kafei and glomp him as the world ends!

While I haven't yet thought of my conclusion to the universe, I have with our solar system, which will more than likely be the beginning of the end.
Many scientists believe that, by the time the sun starts to get too hot for us on Earth, before the Red Giant stage, humans will be living on Mars. After that, it is predicted that we will have found our way to another solar system that can sustain life, possibly just a few days before the Red Giant stage. After that, although it will take many, many years, I believe that the sun will go supernova, it will be a large enough "Explosion" to destroy surrounding solar systems, however I believe that the remains of these planets/stars will form more stars, therefore going on for quite some time. For all we know, there could have been a new star formed millions of years ago that we havent seen yet.
And now since it feels that I've typed for a half hour I'm going to conclude this. Sorry if this has been a long, boring rant!

First Earth will probably get destroyed by the sun or a meteor. Most likely I wont be alive when this happens.... hopefully The universe ending well... The universe started with a Big Bang as the theory shows. The universe kept on getting bigger and bigger and never stopped growng. Even today it grows. Well I think if its getting bigger from the "explosion" Wont it eventually stop growing and.. Shrink. Or the end will be human caused just because we are wrecking Planet Earth so once we destroy it possibly we may go to another planet and destroy that one then the next and the next and so on. Maybe we will set of something to make this universe collapse on its self...
