4th Article: Timeline Cosmic Future

When I was scanning the internet for my next posting, I came across this crazy webpage that spans the far future of our Earth, the Sun, the galaxy, and the universe...for millions & millions of years. The reason this is science fiction related is because, while based on scientific papers, it is also uses a timeline from a science fiction novel, "Star Maker," by Olaf Stapeldon. The timeline says that the it consists of "default predictions of the very distant future," but I thought it was really neat to see what scientists are predicting the world to be like in millions of years. It's really hard to explain the specifics, but definitely check out this site.
