There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Lately I discovered and read about when first human arrived, how modern humans formed and how they spread across world. Seeing life span, I guess human is going to live for now for many years.. may be millions. Or may be some other sub species of human ?
But one day everyone has to go for extinction (Sun in 5 billion years). I am wondering how long human will survive before going to extinction and what could be the possible reason? What other possible species or sub species will take replace human?
Is it also possible we colonize in other planets and able to live more ? Does species from past (dinosaurs etc) lived longer duration due to better basic instincts ? Will human outlive them or we are worst species when it comes to life span duration on earth ?
You know.. many hypothetical questions but these questions increase my faith on things which is beyond science or non science
That is superhard to even contemplate. We've only been around for 500,000 years & our hold or dominance has never been stronger.
Indore population at this point is that no matter what sort of natural or artificial disaster/epidemic happens, extinction isis veryvery unlikely scenario. Anthropogenic Atmospheric Anomaly may cause widespread suffering at best but that won't be enough. Humankind has powered through climate change before, natural ones, while being severely ill-equipped to handle such emergency. Now we have the knowhow, as well as organisational preparations.
No, I am not even when I try to speculate that.
But planet colonization is like flying-cars, lightsabres. Not goona be feasible outside science fiction even if we have the tech due to cost or resource constrain.
