Astronomy and the Future of our Earth
Should the Human race be worried in our Future?

In this video with Martin Rees talks about "Our Final Century"  and discusses the immense worry of the future outside the bible belt and how we should rather look to academics for answers rather than our government for answers on how the Earth can be affected by astronomy in our future.

Researchers say that our sun will have a life of four and a half billion years and another 6 billion before fuel runs out and life is vaporized.
Rees states " It will not be humans that witness the end and experience it but creatures from us out of bacteria."  Out of fifty years 100th of 100 millionths of the Earths age that the amount of carbon dioxide has immensely risen, radar transmissions such as radio waves from objects such as televisions and cell phones will effect our future. Due to metallic objects escaping into our orbits around our Earth and how extraterrestrials predict the final doom in six billion years. Also that post-human life is elsewhere that we are in the third universe and the fourth universe is out there somewhere.

Based on the article by Dr. Sten Odenwald, the article is a pattern of what economists, astronomers, and researchers have come up with explaining on what they believe will happen in our future.
This article supposedly is what they think what should happen to Earth and humans in our future. So by 15 million is predicted the end of eternity and that all humanity has been died out. By 100 million the universe is to remain hospitable to life. As these factors are pointed out it is also similar to what Rees has mentioned in his article.

Another mystery is how the Milky way will also hold the key to future life of the planet Earth. This article is a comparison to how Rees mentions our biological history.
" This galactic activity leaves radiation resulting in causing dangerous cosmic arrays. With higher rates of genetic mutations in our organisms interfering  with their ability to repair damaged DNA. Researchers believe this destructive activity could lead to development of new species while terminating others." This is a cycle that never stops.

In conclusion, the pattern of how the Earth can be affected by our universe is looking back in history and also following important events such as the Ice Age, Dinosaurs, that is all extinct now but their bacteria is what allowed humanity to be created. This life cycle is never-ending. The universe remains a mystery to researchers as well as how the Earth will be affected in our future.
