Science reveals 15 horrifying disasters that may happen in the future

Humanity has always wanted to find an answer to the question of how the world will end. But what do you think will cause the apocalypse? Fire, flood, giant meteor, aliens, global warming or something completely unexpected?

We can only hope that the theories that have been given by science so far will not be put into practice. The only good news is that horrific events will occur long after our lives are over.

WannaWanga, the user Imgur, struck fear into the bones of other members of the online community with his research. He collected in a heap the worst scenarios that could hit the Earth.

What 15 terrifying disasters can we expect in the future?

Too much water

What can happen that in 10 thousand years the land will be covered with water at a height of 3 to 4 meters. Is it time to buy gloves?

Tropical desert

The theory that predicts the future of the Sahara, otherwise the largest desert in the world, is extremely interesting. After about 15 thousand years, due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field, the Sahara should be completely covered by the tropical climate zone.

Ice Age

The mighty Niagara Falls will displace Lake Erie in 50,000 years. At this time, the current interglacial period will also end. The Ice Age is coming, so we recommend that you bring warm clothes.

A star explosion

The Wolf-Rayet star WR 104 will explode as a supernova in about 300 thousand years. A violent explosion with bursts of gamma rays will end life on Earth.

Asteroid

A huge asteroid will be very difficult to avoid. It will collide with the Earth in 500 thousand years and cause irreparable damage in an instant.

Volcanic eruptions

We are only a million years away from drowning in magma. There will be massive volcanic eruptions around the world.

The flood of the Red Sea

The Red Sea will flood the East African Tectonic Trench in the future. In 10 million years, the new ocean will completely transform Africa, which will consist of many islands.

Supercontinent

In 250 million years, the world's continents will be reunited. In any case, you can already start thinking about what to call the new supercontinent.

No more forests

Due to numerous volcanic eruptions, the level of carbon dioxide in the air will reach a record level in 250 million years. In such conditions, photosynthesis will no longer be possible, so we will have to say goodbye to plants.

Extinction of animals

In 800 million years, life on Earth will be virtually gone. However, a handful of scientists believe that some animal species will not become extinct by then. The probability of this happening is very low, as the oxygen level in the water will be extremely low.

Unbearable heat

If you hate high humidity and heat, then life in a billion years will not be suitable for you. Due to the increase in the luminosity of the Sun, the average temperature on Earth will be 47 °C.

A collision of galaxies

The Milky Way galaxy, to which our solar system also belongs, will merge with the Andromeda galaxy in 4 billion years.

Ocean with lava

In 7 billion years, the Earth will be covered by an ocean that will contain lava instead of water. At the same time, the Sun will 'suck' the Earth and the Moon. The future is not exactly rosy...

Predominance of darkness

The sun could turn black in 14 billion years. Even if it doesn't "swallow" the Earth before then, people's sight will no longer be of any use.

A big tear

The Big Rip is expected to occur in about 17 billion years. At that time, the destruction of entire clusters of galaxies, stars, planets and asteroids can be expected, which will in turn lead to the disintegration of the universe.
