So as I understand it, our entire Universe will die/change at some point, taking out everything within it along with it?

So, even if we escape this planet or solar system at some point in the future, everything will vanish without a trace anyway?

A few questions, then;

How do we know there wasn't a universe before populated and exploited by a super advanced race, or maybe by something completely beyond our wildest thoughts?

And is there any plausible way to avoid destruction along with the Universe, or will it be THE final end for everything that exists?

Also, yes I know there are no solid answers to these questions, and they're purely theoretical pondering, but it's something to talk about.

I have a plan (pic related):

>So as I understand it, our entire Universe will die/change at some point, taking out everything within it along with it?

The most likely death is a death by expansion so the universe will just be a cold barren "empty" space.

Not really

>How do we know there wasn't a universe before populated and exploited by a super advanced race, or maybe by something completely beyond our wildest thoughts?

We don't

>And is there any plausible way to avoid destruction along with the Universe, or will it be THE final end for everything that exists?

The universe is everything. But it's possible there are more than one universe.

yip

>How do we know there wasn't a universe before populated and exploited by a super advanced race, or maybe by something completely beyond our wildest thoughts?
we dont know, it is possible that the big bang resulted from the death of the previous universe

>And is there any plausible way to avoid destruction along with the Universe, or will it be THE final end for everything that exists?
short of reversing entropy, i dont think so. if multiple universes exist you may be able to travel to a new one and live in it

hypothetical, hy-po-the-ti-cal pondering

Thank you for the input.

>>2682478

And thank you for the answers. Maybe in the time between then and now we may discover and learn to exploit "alternate" universes.

Sidenote: A simple pointing out of the word "hypothetical" would have been fine. The additional "sounding it out" wasn't necessary.

>> No.2682499

Our scientific understanding of the universe is far from complete. We have built a strong mathematical frame work, but it still has holes and could very well be fundamentally flawed.
Besides, if a freeze-death is actually the future of the universe we have plenty of time to prepare for it.

Most likely though humanity will create weapons of sufficient power and kill itself in a moment of mammalian violence.

>> No.2682504

maybe we could encase a planet in certain alloys in the far future, extracting the energy from dark matter to sustain ourselves for eternity.


with technology to continue ourselves and stop the planet itself being destroyed.

or we build our own planet.

All of your points are based on our current understanding of the Universe and the laws of physics.

In the unlikely event that we're the first era out of many to actually have it all spot on, then yes, heat death is most likely, either way it's not going to last happily forever and we can't experience anything beyond our light horizon.

But, if it turns out we're wrong about all of this then everything we speculate about here is moot.

It's not often than one person will be bothered enough, or have enough ambition to continuously sage a topic into oblivion. Though I guess it's happened before. And if he's that annoyed at this topic, then he's free to do so.

nowadays people talk about the possibility of terraforming so we can live in new planets and solar systems maybe someday "people" (in quotes because they will obviously be much different then we are now) will talk about the possibility of making new universes to live in.

Mind if I butt in?

Saging, thus indicating one's derision for a point or opinion submitted by another, may cause that individual to reflect objectively on their offering. That in turn may lead them to a revelation about themselves, which in turn causes them to rethink their entire life philosophy.

Having given up their previous ambitions, they then seek to attune themselves to some other endeavour and, after years of slavish dedication, produce a breakthrough so profound and significant that it is never surpassed in the remainder of human history. They wouldn't remember the sage, and neither would you, but it could have that effect. Don't knock the productivity of saging outright.

It could also only increase the post-limit of a thread without bumping it.

Thank you, I'm out.
