gollark: Or humans or some other species will beat entropy, hack the universe and stop anything from dying ever.
gollark: I mean, ultimately, long after the last stars burn out, the fuel of giant stars of the bright, early universe we live in having long been exhausted, giving way to red dwarves which will themselves slowly fade to black, the matter in them having decayed (possibly), there will be nothing but slowly evaporating black holes. And eventually even these will vanish, leaving nothing but electromagnetic radiation being slowly redshifted, with no energy gradients able to sustain life.
gollark: Sure!
gollark: I mean, death won't happen forever.
gollark: Also taxes.
