[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1486669155694","data":"Ever looked into the vast nothingness of space laying back just staring into the tiny dots of glowing hot galactic dust billions of miles away feeling lightheaded and inconsequential? I know I have. We are but mere specs of dust in the ocean of outer space. Our lives, our intelligence, our existence is of no addition to the universe. Okay, now that I\u2019ve established that you\u2019re just one person out of over 7 billion on Earth. Your lifetime is just a fraction of a frame of a blink of drop of microfluid compared to the 4.6 billion years of the age of the planet. And considering Earth is only about a third the age of the Universe. Which in itself is filled with billions of other galaxies each with stars and planets of their own. Allow me to fill that hole in your ego with this, <\/p>\u201cThose who see the cosmic perspective as a depressing outlook, they really need to reassess how they think about the world.\u201d\n\u2013 Neil deGrasse Tyson<\/p>Since our existence is so short spanned, let\u2019s talk about the events in our universe we\u2019ll end up missing, <\/p>Jupiter:\nJupiter is the oldest and biggest member of our solar system. It\u2019s like that older brother who\u2019s just too bulky for you to deal with, always angry or irritated dealing in issues of his own. Well I\u2019ve just explained Jupiter for you. The massive planet is shrouded in thick layers of clouds made of helium and hydrogen, much like our sun. One distinct feature of this planet has been the constant tornado of sorts, The Great Red Spot, waging its wrath on the surface, moving at speeds of over 300 miles\/hour. This storm has existed for almost 186 years or even more. It was first discovered by Hooke and Cassini between 1664 and 1665, but the first images recorded are from the late 1800s. Flashback to the recent 19th century, images collected by the Hubble telescope show that the storm on the surface has been shrinking, and at a rapid pace. From around 25,000 miles in diameter to a mere 10,250 miles in the 19th century, The Great Red Spot, might be nearing the end of its existence. This isn\u2019t ubnormal since most gas cloud surfaces aren\u2019t stable over time. \u2018The Great Red Spot\u2019 as a name is quite misleading however, since this storm has been changing its color from Dark Red, to Salmon down to a bright white color. <\/p>Now this isn\u2019t the only thing that\u2019s going to change about the big brother planet. Despite being a huge gaseous planet, Jupiter has a solid core made up of Iron, Rock and Ice. This core is under immense pressure and scorching temperature equivalent to the surface of the sun, largely because of it\u2019s Hyderogen-Helium atmosphere. A common compound found in the core is Magnesium Oxide, this oxide when subjected to high temperatures and pressures under similar but scaled down conditions results in the dissolving of the core. This raises a major red flag, if the major component of the core is vulnerable to such conditions, there lies the possibility of Jupiter losing it\u2019s magnetic properties and ending up as a big ball of gases fuming at extremely high temperatures. <\/p> \nJupiter however, doesn\u2019t keep to it\u2019s own. Due to its massive size, (before it becomes a balloon), it\u2019s gravity can warp Mercury\u2019s orbit, which is currently elliptical. This may cause Mercury to either crash into Venus or worse engage in a head on collision course with Earth. Not in the near future however. In another million years, probably. <\/p>Mars:\nElon Musk might be on the quick track to get human colonies onto Mars but, don\u2019t forget, each planet has a few problem of it\u2019s own. The atmosphere. And the lack of water. Okay, Mars has a lot of problems. But it has one more heading towards it\u2019s way in around 20-70 million years. One of it\u2019s moons, Phobos, will eventually shred into a cloud of debris due to the tidal stresses and form Saturn like rings around Mars spreading a distance of almost 1-100 million miles in diameter. <\/p>Mars however, would also fall into the goldilock zone once our Sun starts dying, i.e, starts growing bigger in diameter. Engulfing our blue planet Earth in flames of radioactive material and UV rays. \nTalking about radioactive material, as of now, our Solar system is part of the Local Interstellar Cloud. In around 50,000 years or as soon as 20 years, our Solar System might drift enough such that it moves out of the local cloud and enters nearby Galactic Cloud. This cloud has a way higher gravitational pull. This could crush our sun\u2019s magnetic field inwards rendering our Earth inhabitable. <\/p>This isn\u2019t the only problem our Earth has. According to studies, the moon is moving away from the Earth at a speed of 1-4 cms per year, which means in around 600 million years, we could never witness a complete solar eclipse. Or the bodies might go into a tidal lock. A tidal lock occurs when the two bodies attain a similar speed of rotation and relative revolution. This causes only one side of the moon to be visible to the Earth at all times. The Dark Side of The Moon could become a reality. <\/p> <\/p>If you are incredibly depressed by reading such massive destruction in outer space, be good to someone tomorrow and make their day better by not being a massive planet. <\/p>To lift your spirits, here\u2019s visuals of some spectacular light shows in the future, \nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dtWeH4-Ugy4 <\/p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qnYCpQyRp-4\n<\/p>"}]
