Apparently we only have about five billion years before our sun supernovas and swallows up the earth.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andromeda%E2%80%93Milky_Way_collision

Failing that, we only have about 3-5 billion years before the Milky Way collides with the Andromeda galaxy, emitting a shock wave that would push the Earth to about 3 times its current distance from the Sun and lowering temperatures appropriately.

Just a friendly reminder to take it easy while you still can.

everything thats ever happened will all have been a waste of time..?

Pro tip: the human race isn't going to last 5 billion years.

>only five billion years

The world could end tomorrow and most of /jp/ wouldn't even care.

Just remember it live it up a little, nothing's a waste if people are enjoying themselves!

Don't trouble me with this, I'll take it easy tomorrow.

We should build multiple space capsules to store Touhou in digital forms.
And finally, when our galaxy inevitably collide; the capsules, with its data remain intact, will continue to wander. Waiting for the next sentient being to stumble across it and trying to understand Gensokyo.

Unless I can live for 5 billion years, I don't give a fuck.

I always thought shockwaves can't travel in space
something new learned today

>> No.8917966

I really don't think the galactic collision will result in "shockwaves."

I'm sure a star here and there might collide and there will be a lot of gravitational distortions but there won't be some cataclysmic clash between the two. Hell there are already billions of galaxies out there that are in different stages of collision.

So I'm not the only one fascinated with cosmic phenomena.

I'm scared of dieing /jp/.
