{{cquote|[[Heaven]] and [[earth]] shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. '''But of that day and hour knoweth no man''', no, not the [[angel]]s of heaven, but [[God|my Father only]].|||[[Jesus]], according to {{bible|Matthew|24|35|36}}}}


There's always been good business [[Prediction|predicting]] '''the end of the world'''. The "end" of the "world" is pretty badly defined by most [[supernatural]] predictions. The [[rapture]], for instance, is really just the ''beginning'' of the end, and signals civilization being sent back to the {{wpl|Stone Age}} for a bit, during which time The Chosen will be whisked up to [[heaven]]. Meanwhile, [[prediction]]s of the end of the world in [[2012 apocalypse|2012]] were wide-ranging, from a [[comet]] just tearing [[Earth]] in half (the rest of the ''[[universe]]'' spinning on as usual) to the complete and total end of everything ever. The latter is less scary because it's not like anything will be around ''afterwards'' to care. Other predictions see general massive catastrophic events that alter civilization on a fundamental level, seen with multiple predictions surrounding [[peak oil]], climate change, and the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] with many different views of how they will do such a thing. 

In the case of some of the [[science]]-based predictions for how the universe will go on according to our [[knowledge]] of [[physics]], there's no "end" as such. [[Matter]] and [[energy]] still exist, but in their lowest energy and most uniform state: the rub being that this state precludes the interactions needed to produce [[emergence|emergent]] structures. This includes [[star]]s, [[planet]]s, and intelligent entities capable of experiencing the universe.

Here are some examples, with the predicted date of the end of all things.

*[[Zoroastrianism]] claims that the end of the world will happen when a comet, called Gochihr, strikes the earth. It will cause all the world's metals to melt and will burn up the world. At the same time, sinners and the pious will pass through this river of molten metal. Sinners will have their [[sin]]s burnt away and the pious will feel like they're "passing through warm milk."<ref>[http://www.avesta.org/pahlavi/bund29.html#chap30 Chap 30 of the Bundahishn]</ref>
*[[Bible | Biblical]] pinpointing of the end of the world: it had already started during the earthly life of Jesus ''circa'' first century CE: "in the end of the world hath [Christ] appeared".<ref>'[...] but now once in the end of the world hath [Christ] appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself." – {{bible|Hebrews|9|26}} </ref>
*Norse myths say that [[Ragnarok| Ragnarök]] will involve a battle between the gods, killing all but two of the humans, who will then repopulate the earth.<ref group=note>Just forget about the genetic bottleneck and that this may have been a Christian-inspired later addition, though. What's important is the ''story''.</ref>
*A number of [[existential risk|scientific disasters]] have been suggested throughout the years. For example: epidemics,<ref>[http://dailycaller.com/2013/11/26/5-pandemics-that-could-wipe-out-humanity-tomorrow/2/ 5 diseases that could wipe out humanity]</ref> various [[asteroid]]s/comets, super-volcano eruptions,<ref>[http://www.livescience.com/20714-yellowstone-supervolcano-eruption.html What if the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts?]</ref> and [[global warming]]. Note that these, like many other "end of world" predictions, would only be the end of ''humanity'', or at most, of much/most/all life on Earth. The world itself would hardly notice the change.

Apparently there's also room for some "[[Abrahamic religions|People of the Book]]," i.e. [[Jews]] and Christians, though hopefully there won't be any wars between the lot in heaven.

*Before 2100: Dr. M.H. Kahn believes that all of all other predictions in the past are invalid. He cites pasages from the Qur'an; they imply that some time in the future, the current expansion of the universe will reverse. This will cause time and gravity to reverse. He writes:
::"The [[Ultimate_fate_of_the_Universe#Big_Crunch:_All_together_again| contraction of the universe]] with reversal of time and gravity will commence the beginning of the end which will last for thousands and possibly millions of years. We will be removed from the regressing effects of reversed time as we come back alive in our own time. We will the be taken across many dimensions to beyond this universe. A beautiful natural mechanism that is based on the laws of physics will cause all that to happen. This real end has nothing to do with wishful thinking and predictions of priests or shamans."<ref>[http://www.religioustolerance.org/end_wrl21.htm Predictions that the end of the world will happen after the year 2020] ''Religious Tolerance''</ref>

*According to current models, the [[Sun]] is expected to increase in luminosity by 10% in the next 500 million years before fading out and dying. This will cause several changes to the climate that will make the continued existence of life on Earth impossible, starting with [[Photosynthesis|photosynthetic]] organisms and eventually killing off all [[life]]. During the period of the next 500 million years, there is a small chance that a passing star will throw Earth out of orbit, causing catastrophic events from burning, freezing or collision.<ref>[https://www.sciencenews.org/article/star-fling-earth-out-of-orbit A passing star could fling Earth out of orbit.] by Ken Croswell (May 28, 2025 at 2:00 pm) ''Science News''.</ref>

==10 millionth century==
*The [[Andromeda Galaxy]] (currently 2.5 million light years away) has about a 50% chance (by 2025 estimates) of colliding and merging with our galaxy, the [[Milky Way]]. This is unlikely to have much of an effect on whatever [[life]] is around, as galaxies are mostly empty space, although for any given planet, there is a tiny chance that its orbit could be disrupted due to gravitational tugs from passing stars. The other 50% chance is that two other galaxies in our Local Group, the Large Magellanic Cloud and Messier 33 will prevent the merger.<ref>[https://www.sciencenews.org/article/uncertain-milky-way-andromeda-collision A dwarf galaxy just might upend the Milky Way’s predicted demise: The Large Magellanic Cloud could prevent a smashup between the Milky Way and Andromeda] by Nikk Ogasa (June 2, 2025 at 11:00 am) ''Science News''.</ref>

Even if it doesn't, Earth will be roasted to a cinder crisp.{{fact|joke}} One school of thought predicts that the drag from the Sun's outer gas envelope will cause the Earth to spiral into the Sun, but as with all things scientific, there is another school of thought that says this won't happen.<ref>[http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/09/070914-red-giants.html Red Giant Sun May Not Destroy Earth]</ref> If it isn't swallowed, Earth will either get flung out into interstellar space due to tidal interactions with the Sun and the Sun's gradual loss of mass once it enters the red giant stage or will keep orbiting the dead Sun, perhaps reduced just to its core, for a long time to come. Never again will Earth see another day.

==200 millionth century==
*20 billion years from now: If the current rate of [[Expanding universe|expansion]] of the [[universe]] grows, in 20 (or 22) billion years, the universe could be expanding so rapidly that [[atom]]s will no longer be able to hold on to their [[electron]]s. This predicted event is known as the "Big Rip."

==3×10<sup>41</sup> <sup>st</sup> century==
*3×10<sup>43</sup> years from now: estimated maximum time for all nucleons in the observable universe to decay, if [[proton]]s are unstable. Whether they are is currently an unresolved question in physics. {{wpl|Exasecond and longer}} and {{wpl|Future of an expanding universe}} have a pile of similarly apocalyptic events that actually have some scientific basis. This is the Total Existence Failure of the entire universe; anything complex enough to be considered [[life]] that would care about it would likely have evaporated to nothing ''long'' before this. Out of all the above, this is the most likely.

==∞<sup>th</sup> century==
*The {{wpl|heat death of the universe}} ("[[Ultimate fate of the Universe|Big Freeze]]") is a scientific prediction that eventually the universe will expand so much it will no longer contain any thermodynamic free energy with which to do work. At this point the universe will be cold, dark, and essentially empty forever. That is, unless quantum fluctuations or some other phenomena eventually cause something to occur, like a new Big Bang. Forever is a long time, and this kind of physics is poorly understood at present.

==No prediction of the end of the world==
It is widely believed that there were prophecies in the 10th century CE that the world would end in 999 CE or 1000 CE. However, this seems to have been first mentioned by {{wpl|Johannes Trithemius}} around 1500 and popularised in the 17th and 18th centuries by {{wpl|Cardinal Baronius||,}} {{wpl|William Robertson||,}} {{wpl|Charles Mackay (author)|Charles Mackay|,}} {{wpl|Jules Michelet||,}} and others; sources from the 10th and 11th century show little evidence of a panic.<ref>[https://theness.com/index.php/the-year-1000-a-d-and-the-millennial-panic/ The Year 1000 A.D. and the Millennial Panic], Edward P.
