    In the year 2525
    If man is still alive
    If woman can survive
    They may find

    In the year 3535
    Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
    Everything you think, do, or say
    Is in the pill you took today

    In the year 4545
    Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
    You won't find a thing to do
    Nobody's gonna look at you

    In the year 5555
    Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
    Your legs not nothing to do
    Some machine is doing that for you

    In the year 6565
    Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
    You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
    From the bottom of a long black tube

    In the year 7510
    If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by then
    Maybe he'll look around himself and say
    Guess it's time for the Judgement day

    In the year 8510
    God's gonna shake his mighty head
    He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
    Or tear it down and start again

    In the year 9595
    I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive
    He's taken everything this old earth can give
    And he ain't put back nothing

    Now it's been 10,000 years
    Man has cried a billion tears
    For what he never knew
    Now man's reign is through
    But through the eternal night
    The twinkling of starlight
    So very far away
    Maybe it's only yesterday

    year 10 to the power 40:

    On current record trends, man will be running the 100 Metres in -4.63 seconds and Team GB will be winning more medals than are available.

    If the theory of black hole evaporation is correct, it is predicted by many astronomers that all the black holes in our universe will have evaporated by around this year, the beginning of the dark era of our universe.

    And if it is not - then shall we have a cosmic repeat of the Cosmos ?

    Kids - dont forget in an infinite timezone everything will happen again !

    And we're all worried about IR35 and BN66. We could all be dead in a couple of billion years or so.

    Future is not looking bright

    Predicted Events after Year 1,000,000

    Please note that there are many different theories and models about our universe and its past, present and future behavior. Because of these factors, the events listed in this section should not be considered definitive, complete or necessarily consistent with one another.

    year 8,400,000: LAGEOS 2 satellite time capsule re-enters Earth's atmosphere.

    years 600,000,000 to 3,500,000,000 (estimates vary): The Earth's oceans start to evaporate and the Earth becomes uninhabitable.[5][6]

    year 1,000,000,000: The last total solar eclipse on Earth will occur.[7]

    year 3,000,000,000: The Andromeda Galaxy and our Milky Way Galaxy are predicted to collide.

    year 6,500,000,000: The Sun becomes a red giant and any remaining life on Earth, and possibly Earth itself, is destroyed.

    year 7,000,000,000: The Sun becomes a white dwarf about the size of the Earth.

    year 10,000,000,000: The Sun becomes a black dwarf.[8]

    years 100,000,000,000,000 to 1,000,000,000,000,000 (one quadrillion): The Big Freeze according to many cosmologists. Intelligent life existing then may flee to other universes, as suggested by the physicist Michio Kaku. Beginning of the Degenerate Era of our universe. End of normal star formation and normal stars in the Milky Way/M31 super-galaxy. New stars formed only via brown dwarf collisions every hundred billion years or so.

    year 10,000,000,000,000,000,000: The Galaxy relaxes gravitationally. Ninety percent of stars escape into intergalactic space while the rest merge with the central Black Hole.

    year 10 to the power 40: Beginning of the Black Hole Era of our universe.

    year 10 to the power 100 (one googol): If the theory of black hole evaporation is correct, it is predicted by many astronomers that all the black holes in our universe will have evaporated by around this year, the beginning of the dark era of our universe.


    Doomed!
