When Obama runs out of gas, we can celebrate.

And it's a long walk to the next gas station ...

( Galaxies are running out of gas: study )

As if ? this will happen in our life time.

I would not worry about the Galaxies running out of gas, we will be long gone before then.

I want to say something about how the galaxies should have paid their gas bills, then they wouldn’t be having this problem.

But, seriously, it’s rather predictable that as hydrogen gets pulled into star and planet formation, there is less of it floating free. The real surprise would have been if there were as much hydrogen as ever.

I wonder about some of the terminology used in the article. Talking about the time dark energy took over makes it sound like dark energy did not exist at some point, and then sprang into existence. That just doesn’t make sense, since all forms of energy should have always existed. Maybe what the doctor meant was that dark energy was always there, but only exerted influence later—which makes sense, since one could envision that the dominance of various mechanisms changes with the other changing conditions in the universe (e.g., along with the decreasing amount of free hydrogen).

If you support the big bang theory then its logical that star formation will slowly keep being reduced over time. An expanding universe from a singular event will obviously reduce density as it expands, dissipating the hydrogen gas further and further over time.

Of course they’re running out of gas. What do think is going to happen when we all live in suburbs. If the big car companies would stop making their living selling gas guzzling suv’s, maybe we could avert thi crisis.

Galaxies are running out of gas

And it's a PAIN to tow them to the filling station!

I create enough gas to offset this problem.

so we see the galaxies as they were between three and five billion years ago.

For all we know the universe has already ended and we just haven't received the news yet.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Galaxies running out of gas? Good. Maybe they’ll stop lifting the covers and scaring the livestock.

running out of Galactic Gas? No Problem. Washington D.C. has more than enough gas to re-gasify this and many of the distant Galaxies.
