Document Summary
When they merge, they send out powerful gravity waves that resonate throughout the universe. Science has begun to paint a stunning picture of how the future might unfold. Let "s take a journey to the end of time. We will travel through time exponentially doubling our speed every 5 seconds. The vision of the future will surely evolve as we probe for more clues. But one thing is clear: the universe has only just begun. The fate of the sun is the same as for all stars. One day, they must all eventually die, and the cosmos will be plunged into eternal night. The universe becomes a cosmic boneyard strewn with remnants of dead stars. The faint glow of white dwarfs will provide the only illumination in a dark and empty void littered with dead stars and black holes. A black dwarf will be the final fate of those last stars.
