Timeline of the Far Future Predicting the next hundred quintillion years

It is hard enough to predict what might happen next year, never mind in 100 years, but what about one hundred quintillion years (that’s 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 years)?

This fantastic infographic Timeline of the Far Future produced by BBC Future attempts to do just that.

Given that the universe is 13.8 billion years old and we (homo sapiens) have only existed as a species for 200,000 years or so — what is our long-term future in the hundred quintillion-year life span of the universe?

I should add that some scientists think we may have as little as 2.8 billion years before the universe comes to an end.

Trust in Whom?
