Planet Earth to be Zapped, Sometime Soon...

Hip Priest · 03.05.2008, 06:23 PM

...maybe.

...there is evidence that gamma ray bursts have swept over the planet at various points in Earth's history with a devastating effect on life.

Frightening knowing life could be whisked away completely from seemingly nowhere.

ALIEN ANAL · 03.05.2008, 07:12 PM

fuck yeh
turning into the hulk will rock

Pessimist.

Apparently the sun is going to expand, just enough in the next 100 million years to heat the earth to such a degree that the oceans will be boiled off.

Of course humanity is more than capable of wiping itself out in a 100 millionth of that time, but...

Well, in evolution time..

Dinos existed for over 200 million years. So.. it's not alot.

We gotta get with the interstellar travel buzz.

I go on a downer about the most bizzare shit when drunk.

bonus!

✌➬ · 03.05.2008, 07:53 PM

Pessimist. I want the world to blow itself over.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 03.05.2008, 10:40 PM

All life in the universe will eventually come to an end. With the universe constantly expanding and starts eventually collapsing or forming black holes.

entropy.

floatingslowly · 03.05.2008, 10:49 PM

it's 8000 light years away. that's not close enough to blow off the Van Allen Belt.

Sol system is currently in a relatively underpopulated area of stars between spiral arms, so epoch ending rays are much less of a worry than a large meteorite colliding with us.

ALIEN ANAL · 03.05.2008, 11:03 PM

its gonna be a blast

barnaclelapse · 03.05.2008, 11:39 PM

Works for me.

!@#$%! · 03.06.2008, 12:49 AM

sweet. think about the science we'll develop to cope with that.

ZEROpumpkins · 03.06.2008, 01:29 AM

I read about this in the newpaper and it's rather scary.

!@#$%! · 03.06.2008, 01:41 AM

would be too much of a coincidence that we discover it and right then it fucks us up. would be a total cosmic joke. i'd die of laughter first.

✌➬ · 03.06.2008, 01:44 AM

I hope, I will be dead when this happens.

Heres hoping.
Maybe we'll mutate to something even better than human beings? What if it's the next stage in evolution?
