Professor Stephen Hawking says humans have less than 1,000 years on Earth before we are wiped out by extinction.
The celebrated physicist said humans will only survive if another planet was found to live on.
The 74-year-old said unless this happens then humans will be wiped out in a mass extinction.

Dear Dr. Hawkings,
All the world over, everyone who has read your pronouncement upon the human race, will not see the year 2091.
With the ruination of NASA by the sitting president, and the baby steps being taken by the American private sector in their conquest of space, it might be 2092, before America walks on any solar-orbit bodies, as a return or for the first time.

I retain my faith in God.
This planet can easily support double the current population.
This issue is getting rid of all of the “dirt firster’s” policies and Fascist leaders.

I know the guy is way smarter than I but I must descent. Earth is our home. It will be our home until we are no more. But Earth will not end in 1,000, 10,000, or 100,000 years. And should it, don’t worry. We wont feel a thing. lol

He’s all wrong! Natie Silver just said it is “998 years three months seventeen days forty two minutes and five seconds” But that was yesterday so there is a little less time.

Is this the same Hawking that said “anything as elegant as gravity would have to be able to create itself.”

1000 years? Well, none of us will ever be able to prove he’s wrong.
To: hulagirl
May he live and be well, but Ive known two people w/ALS in my lifetime and they died fairly young. That guy seems to live forever.
Which guy, this guy or the other?
Stephen Hawking died and has been replaced by Miles Mathis
Say what you want about conspiracy theories, but this guy does great photo analysis and as a renown portrait artist and physicist Miles has the skill set to back up his claims.

I personally think the guy is an idiot. One thing is for sure. None of us will be here to know if he was right.

The way things are going, it’ll be more like 100 years. Maybe 10.

That’s a fact!
Every person living on planet Earth could live within the boundaries of the state of Texas.
