That would be awesome. The sun explodes, not destroying the lifeless Earth but pushing it outward until it collides with another planet... Perhaps creating the conditions needed for life?NeutralDrow said:That sounds about right. Eventually, the sun is going to turn into a red giant and push the Earth to a farther orbit before going nova. That would certainly be destructive, but it's far more likely that we'd already be dead. If anything, maybe the Earth will be set adrift when the sun collapses into a dwarf star...though I'm not familiar enough with astronomy to guess (the Earth might still continue to orbit).ArcWinter said:You're right, I made a mistake. I meant to say that the sun would blow up (one can always hope, right?) thus decimating Earth to the face. Not that earth would explode.NeutralDrow said:That's only if they're big enough to do so. The Earth will probably just freeze while orbiting the white dwarf that Sol will become.ArcWinter said:The end of the world, Earth, itself will probably be in 2 billion years when it explodes violently, as celestial bodies are prone to do.
Why, the answer is obvious! We shall misspell ourselves into extinction! xDasteroth21nox said:1). Nuculer war
2). Sickness or biological war fair.
3). Resource exaustion via over population
What do you have in mind? lolFat Man Spoon said:Mass disease.
Or we get replaced. I'd love that. As long as it is by what I have in mind.

THIS IS IN THE WRONG FORUM.asteroth21nox said:I'm not a doomsday believer. I don't believe the world will end in 2012 "but" it is an interesting thing to think about. The end of civilized man as we know it, how will it happen? I believe these three scenarios are the most likely.
1). Nuculer war
2). Sickness or biological war fair.
3). Resource exaustion via over population
Either way I think we will destroy ouselves in the end. What do you think?
Silly_Billy said:I'm not usually an optimist but I believe in the continuation of humanity. We will probable die out one of four ways:
1. Plague ravages the Earth; all humanity extinct (very likely)
2. Exploding sun; we don't have the technology to create long-term planetary colonies before the sun explodes (very unlikely)
3. We survive everything the universe throws at us; we don't ever go extinct until we evolve into a new species. (unlikely)
4. Something out of our control causes mass death by all species (evil aliens? blackholes?) (likely)
