Planet Earth Is Dying, And Has Been For Some Time | Naked Science | Spark

For as long as man has inhabited our planet, they have wondered what will bring about the end of all life on Earth. There are many different theories, both scientific and religious, on how we will meet our end. But the truth is, our planet is dying right now, and has been for the a very long time.

THE END OF LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE The comments here are just further proof of the egocentric nature of human beings .... the end of life on this planet doesn't necessarily mean "the end of life in the universe" and is not any particular tragedy. We are not any more important than the chemicals that made us. Look at how we treat each other and our resources. We burn through everything as fast as possible in the name of profit for a few greedy turds and then they spend all of their time and energy trying to steal it from each other. Evolution has been an experiment gone wrong. The universe doesn't need us anymore than we need a galaxy on the other side of the universe. Everything moves on to its ultimate end.

Humanity's goal is to become interplanetary immortal beings . We have to make a first step towards it & start 3D printing our brains to transfer the consciousness & our Egoes of self awareness trough blood & synaptic interface to be around for space exploration & survive out there before we self-destruct ourselves here on polluted earth. Priorities got mixed up & most important thing is to win the wars present and future ones.

[@chuckschillingvideos]

Says you.

[@78tag]

We would never get past the "3D printing" stage - politicians, world elites like Bill Gates and the globalists would use that technology to imprison/execute the population they deem unnecessary and sit around kissing their mirrors. "....before we self-destruct ourselves" is the most accurate concept you have offered here. Even if we were to manage it, do you really think we wouldn't just go to the next environment and do the same thing? I don't think you meant it in this context but you hit it on the head - the "priority" you mention - "winning wars" is the major reason the era of "Humanity", as you put it, will not continue. We are the ultimate example of self destruction.

The tidal effect of the moon on the earth is actually causing the moon to move further away, little by little. So why should the tidal effect of the earth on the sun cause the earth to move toward the sun, rather than away?

[@chuckschillingvideos]

The moon's orbit of the earth is not identical to that of the earth's rotation about the sun, nor is the disparity of mass in each case comparable. So it is quite possible for these phenomena to have different manifestations over time.

[@78tag]

Did you catch the little detail about the bloating Red Giant Star called our Sun ? It is going to swallow the earth.

@@Wee_Eddie I like what you said as an hypothesis but if the universe (that which came out of the big bang) is "alive'", then biology may be more useful than physics, and we would be expecting that our universe arose out of the interaction of other pre-existing "living" universes like our own that our universe exists in relation to now, and with an endless night sky of other physically related universes...
