when will the world end?

Answer 1

When it runs out of chocolate...sob...

Answer 2

Life on Earth as we know it will end in 500million years because the sun will keep heating up slowly and eventually the oceans will vaporise.
The sun will start to die in about 4 billion years, It will expand and, depending on whether the Earth is pushed out by the lower mass of the Sun as it burns fuel over time , the sun will turn into a red giant and swell up which will be bigger then the current orbit of the Earth.

Planets can survive in the atmosphere of a star (though the atmosphere of the plant will obviously disappear) and it may be a case that the Earth will survive and orbit the mass of the dead sun for the rest of time.
There are so many variables though, not least Andromeda hitting the milkyway. That may mess things up majorly.

But we have 500million years to get away before the oceans vaporise under the heat of the hotter sun.

Answer 3

Define 'end'. If you are talking about when the Earth will (theoretically) be consumed by the expansion of the sun into a red giant, I would give us 4.5 Billion years or so. (This, by the way, was a good Dr. Who episode in 2005) If you are talking about when humans will, for whatever reason, cause massive destruction and ruin on our planet, this could be anywhere from next year to never...

Answer 4

depends...
1. in about 4 million years when the sun swells up to a red ginat, boiling away the oceans, and probably engulfing the earth as it swells, as it dies.
2. rather sooner, if people like Putin and N. Korea get their way, and start sending nuclear bombs off all over the world.

Though i doubt that there will be much left on the earth in 4 millions years, with global warming, resource use, desertification and so on. Basically, i'd be suprised if the earth was inhabitable in 200 years time...

Answer 5

According to scientists, in about 3 to 4 billion years when the Sun becomes a Red Giant.

Answer 6

The expansion of the sun is actually five billion years away, but there's a whooole lot of things that could make the local real estate rather unpleasant to live in. And they could happen any time between now and five billion years time.

In fact, it could happen while you're in the middle of reading the next sentance. Anything coul--

Answer 7

The world will end when I type this answer

Answer 8

you reall think there is someone out here and there that can answer that? all the answers you will be receiving are all speculations and wild guesses.. you should have asked in this manner instead... when DO YOU THINK the world will end? in that case all the answers are going to be sensible because they would be giving matters/answers based on their own honest opinion. and not the kinds "trying-hard-to-be-know-it-all answers" and yet the sources are still as scientifically and as biblically as doubtful.

Answer 9

Tee-hee! It has ended and the human race is the slime that grows on a world grown too cold to support the old type of life.

Answer 10

In about 4-5 billion years when the sun becomes a red giant, water will be evaporated. Bye bye earth :(

Answer 11

When some idiot detonates an H bomb and starts a chain reaction in the hydrogen atoms of the sea.
