Earth has gone though several near death experiences. WE could be destroyed by a astroid, or our own pollution. Nuclear weapon, pandemics, and other ways.

It is not only possible but certain, as certain as science can get to certainty. At the latest, life would be over when the sun swells up into a red giant and, if it won't swallow the earth whole, it will definitely blow away any liquid water and heat the surface to temperatures even the most extreme bacteria won't like very much.

But even before that, the earth might become cold and dead as Mars. I don't know how much of the earth's surface temperature is contributed by its inner heat, but without doubt the inside of the planet will cool down over time, stopping all continental drift, volcanism and stuff, and making the earth geologically dead, if not biologically dead.

Yes. The earth is a lot more fragile than people think. It has a delicate balance and we are throwing it off by consuming too much and damaging the ozone layer, oceans, etc. It could die if we are not careful. It could also be hit by an asteroid. This was believed to have happened when the dinosaurs were here. We could be wiped out so easily.

technological know-how tells us that using fact the solar a while, it extremely is going to enhance in length and engulf the earth in time, killing all life modern-day. that would not propose the top of the humanity. i'm particular that via that element we can be residing in area, so the humanity will flow on. I ought to declare i don't have self assurance people can kill all life interior the planet. no count what occurs, some life will stay to tell the story, a minimum of till the solar turns right into a pink vast. a distinctive thank you to ask your question is how the humanity will end. i don't have self assurance in Independence Day eventualities. If the extraterrestrials have been that way, they might have conquered the earth some time past, in keeping with possibility on the time of dinosaurs. i don't have self assurance we can self-destruct. i think we can proceed as previously, a typical path of progression. particular, there'll be steps backguard, yet usually, we are going forward. yet another risk is a organic disaster. A killer asteroid might injury yet no longer kill the humanity. a virulent disease might injury additionally. different activities are additionally conceivable, yet i think it extremely is not any longer likely they might injury the humanity. All stars flow by tiers as they age and burn their gasoline. Our solar is center elderly, and could save shining as on the instant for 5 billion years. around that element, it will be employing yet another atomic reaction to burn, will enhance in length, and alter into what some call a pink vast. because it maintains spending gasoline, it extremely is going to shrink in length, and alter right into a white dwarf, fairly emitting mild. A white dwarf is referred to as a radioactive cinder, with little mild. There in keeping with possibility a element the place the cost of extracting ability from the solar is better than the income we get from it. we would be residing out of our "decrease cost fees" till those ran out. At this element, the humanity might die, till via then we've interstellar shuttle, and we flow directly to a greater useful place.

The earth will die when the sun becomes a red giant unless we move it further away. Yes, it can be moved! We already know how to do it.

Yes it is possible for Earth to die. But their is a catch to that answer. Earth can only die if God sees fit for it to. You must remember hes the one who created the heavens and earth and hes the one who shall destroy them.
