I think the world will end before the universe does.

[freedumb2003]

The universe will end with a big fart?

[MileHi]

Not with a bang, but with a Big Rip: how the world will end

Excuse me in advance.

If you could get in a spaceship and travel to the edge of the universe, what would be on the other side of the edge?

[circlecity]

The standard cosmological model for the universe is now so riddled with fudge factors that maybe it’s time to scrap the thing and start from scratch.

[C. Edmund Wright]

Science catching up to the Bible.....

[US Navy Vet]

King James Holy Bible says everything’s gonna BURN!

[boycott]

what would be on the other side of the edge?

Probably blue tarp. Seem they use that stuff for everything.

[boycott]

The things that made the big bang happen are still there. Seems logical that it would all go back together and would repeat itself.

[Georgia Girl 2]

“There’s no need for immediate alarm, however: the extreme sequence of events is predicted for around 22 billion years from now.”

I guess they haven’t heard of the Shemitah. :-)

A new theoretical model suggests that as the universe expands, everything, from galaxies, planets and atomic particles to space-time itself, will eventually be torn apart before vanishing from view.

Before disappearing form WHOSE view?

[Farmer Dean]

Blue Tarp.It’s there to keep the universe from staining the carpet.

[WayneS]

If two universes are in an elevator and one of them lets loose a Big Rip, everyone knows who did it...

[ConjunctionJunction]

Doctor Who’s rip in time, perhaps?

;-)

[GreyFriar]

Don’t forget that the Washington Post will remind us that “women and minorities” will be affected worse than everyone else by the end of the universe.

[BigCinBigD]

And the Bible is...Right! In about 3.5 to 4 Billion as the Sun burns it’s fule it will cool and expand. Almost reaching the orbit of Earth. An Earth that by thin will be a chared dry lifeless rock in space.

Don’t you remember the theme from the movie “Alien”?

“In outer space, nobody can hear you fart.”

;^)

[Old Sarge]

(singing) “Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state...”

[Jim from C-Town]

Blue tarp and orange barrels. Those orange barrels are everywhere!
