 Brian Cox does an interesting but mournful programme. Our earth, crafted as one expression of nature. The age of darkness beckons (in a few trillion years or so) No more suns 
I do love a space programme.  | |||

"There's something oddly romantic about the heat death theory for me. No idea why... LvM" Soooo hypothetically if I was to set us both on fire, I could get lucky? | |||

"There's something oddly romantic about the heat death theory for me. No idea why... LvM" For me it gives the lie to ideas like purpose and free will. If we realised these are emergent phenomenon, not a part of a universe that just doesn't care we may be kinder to each other and less dogmatic about our own realities. Op, deffo gonna look out for this. Thank you. Mr | |||

"I doubt very much planet earth will be here in 10 trillion years." Correct, it won’t. There’s about 5 billion years or so before the Sun’s hydrogen begins to run out and it expands into a red giant. It’s estimated Earth gets swallowed up in that and even if it didn’t, it’d be burnt and irradiated to a crisp given its new proximity to the Sun. | |||

Coxy is still correct, but he’s on about something else based on OP’s description ….possibly maximum entropy or heat death. | |||

"I've not seen the program but 10 trillion years sounds like the heat death of the universe not the death of planet earth. Mr" Not seen it either but yep, that’s more like it for that time period  | |||

"So climate isn't really in our control then? I've already put my fingers in my ears "Well, it is something we can influence in the short term (and by short term I'm taking longer than humans have existed).

"Yes the death of all the suns that ever were or ever will be. Its goung to be a slow burning red one as the last ever. Scientific names already allude me, the programme finished about 30 mins ago and it is a saturday, my braun cells are fading faster than the light. So it will be a romantic pinkish glow to see the lights out. Just imagine though. Utter darkness for the rest of forever? Something else must be due to come along surely. " When maximum entropy is reached there is no time. Time only exists for us as a measure of change of entropy. Trying to imagine a forever that has no time is like trying to imagine the expansion of the universe actually creating space, that there is no empty space for it to expand into. Just as there was no time before it started and after it ends. Makes my head hurt. Mr | |||
