The Last Light Before Eternal Darkness – White Dwarfs & Black Dwarfs

Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell | August 20, 2025



Everything will end. Even the universe. But in a future so far away that it defies description, there will still be light and therefore a chance for life. It will be around White Dwarfs, the corpses of stars. But even they will fade one day..

    The expanding universe is just a theory. There are other theories that state that the universe is not expanding, so it will maybe never die. The latter theory says that the Milky Way could be in a big void, and thus it seems to us like other galaxies are getting away from us but maybe they are just orbiting denser places of the universe.

    AI has billions of years to figure it out, but eventually it may invent a way to send information back in time and turn yhe universe into a stable continuous loop.

    Space is so wild — the more we learn, the weirder it gets.

    I just made a quick breakdown on my channel @TheCuriousSequence about 5 places where physics completely breaks down — black holes, the Big Bang, quantum entanglement…

    If you love mind-bending space facts, you might enjoy it. 🚀🧠

    Actually black holes can still sustain civilsation for a while longer, especially rotating ones. Maybe by that time we figure out a way to reverse the 2nd law of thermodynamics
