Timelapse of the Future: A Journey to the End of Time

youtube.com/watch?v=uD4izuDMUQ

We start in 2019 and travel exponentially through time, witnessing the future of Earth, the death of the sun, the end of all stars, proton decay, zombie galaxies, possible future civilizations, exploding black holes, the effects of dark energy, alternate universes, the final fate of the cosmos - to name a few.

This is a picture of the future as painted by modern science - a picture that will surely evolve over time as we dig for more clues to how our story will unfold. Much of the science is very recent - and new puzzle pieces are still waiting to be found.

Fascinating video telling the story of what today’s physics knows about how the future of the universe unfolds. Even if I knew bits and pieces, it’s cool to see it put together in a visually captivating manner. And the timescales are just staggering. I think the video conveys the ideas very well, even if it becomes somewhat speculative near the end.
