Many of us are apt, not without some reason, to regard the world we live in
as the centre of the universe, and to look upon the sun, the moon, and the stars
as objects placed in the heavens for the special benefit of the human race. That
the earth is but a minute object in the Cosmos; that it forms one of a number of
bodies, many of them larger than itself, revolving around their central
luminary, the sun; that there exist in the realms of space myriads of similar
suns, centres themselves of other solar systems; that millions of planets, which
we cannot see, are inhabited with races of intelligent beings -- these are facts
of which almost everybody must cognizant, but on which few bestow much time or
thought.
Astronomy teaches that, just as our solar system had a beginning, so it must
have an end, and that, as at one time life was impossible upon the earth, so
there will come a time when man will no longer be able to exist. Science, cold and calculating, has foretold the physical end of the world --
has prophesied the destruction of the globe and all its contents. Birth, life, death -- it has been well been said --appear to be the rule of
the universe at large, as well as in our own little corner of it. Suns and
planets are evolved, they flourish, and at length decay; and new suns and
systems will arise to take their places. The "End of the World" may be taken in two different senses, as meaning
either the annihilation of our planet by sudden catastrophe, or by gradual
decay, or else the disappearance of human life from the face of the globe, owing
to some state of circumstances, possible, at any rate, if not probable. It is our purpose in this article briefly to consider some of the opinions
held by men of learning and repute regarding the end of the world, and to
emphasize the lesson taught by Nature that the individual counts for nothing in
the history of the race, the race for nothing in the life of the planet, and the
planet for nothing in the duration of the Universe...

Submitted by Stance: It was a very close call. If a devastating drought that gripped Africa had lasted just a little longer, or been a little worse, we would not be here today. There would be no humans, no cities, no art and no science. There would be no wars and no human-induced climate change. The world would belong to the animals. An international genetics project has found that modern humans almost became extinct 70,000 years ago. The Genographic Project, led by American and Israeli research...Jihad The Holy War

If this were some 1950s sci-fi thriller, the Doomsday Cloud would loom dark and ominous in the evening sky. Each night more stars would wink out along its edges. The cloud would sweep past Jupiter, swallowing it whole, and race on toward Earth. There would be an inky darknessat noon. And so on.No, nothing is going to blot out the sun. But recent observations and numerical simulations suggest that eventually—in a few millennia,maybe—the solar system may plow into a cloud of gas and dust a thousan...Judgement Day Theories
